Black Ops 2: Uprising DLC arriving on PC and PS3

I’ve been playing quite a bit of Uprising over the past few days and I have to say I love most of the new maps that have been added and the new peacekeeper weapon is perfectly suited for me… ie spray and pray.

An interview with Black Ops 2’s David Vonderhaar – Next-gen,design and esports

While at the Call of Duty Championship last week, I got the chance to have a quick one on one with Black Ops 2 Game Design Director, David Vonderhaar. Maniacally enthusiastic about the game that Treyarch has worked on, here’s what Vonderhaar had to say about design, evolution, co-operation and next-gen ideas.

Black Ops 2’s Mob of the Dead looks like a game for goodfellas

While I was in Los Angeles last week, for the COD Championship, sammiches were served. And pork sliders, which are kind of like tiny burgers. Accepting food from publishers is kind of seen as a no-no by journalists, something to do with ethics. But seeing as those sammiches were awesome, I gladly threw my principles out the window. Which is why I’m obligated to post this trailer for Mob of the Dead. Omnomnom…

Black Ops 2: Uprising DLC pack detailed

With the Black Ops 2 world championships finishing off this weekend it’s not surprising that Activision have also released a video detailing their upcoming DLC map pack called Uprising.

Call of Duty Championships – Day 3 results

Two days of fierce fighting had led to this, the play-offs of the Call of Duty Championship. With $400 000 in prize money on the line to the winning team, as well as the bragging rights of best in the world, there was plenty of incentive to play like there was no tomorrow. Which is just what we got.

The Call of Duty Championships – Day 1 results

This was it. The first of its kind event, and South Africa had a front row seat to not only observe, but to kick some sizeable amounts of ass as well. It was a day of excitement, exhilaration, hope and opportunity. Here’s it all went down.

Who won that trip to Los Angeles with Call of Duty?

Remember late on Friday when we posted up an incredible competition and gave you just the weekend to prove that you are South Africa’s number one Call of Duty fan to win a paid trip to Hollywood to see the million dollar Call of Duty Championship?

Black Ops 2: Revolution DLC Announced

So this was a bit drawn out wasn’t it? First we were told that this announcement was going to happen on Monday, that didn’t happen. Then it was definitely yesterday but we waited all day and nothing happened and then at 10pm last night this video was released.

Black Ops 2: Revolution coming on the 29th of January

So our inside source promised us yesterday that the Black Ops 2: Revolution announcement was going to be made yesterday.. and it wasn’t. The source has been severely punished with no free beers or wine at our next meeting.

Black Ops 2 DLC to be announced today and will be called Revolution

4 days ago a promotional poster was snapped with a fuzzy cam and released onto the Internet. The poster was for the first DLC for Black Ops 2 and it looks like it is going to be called Revolution. We have learned from a reliable source that this map pack is going to be announced today so keep an eye out for it throughout the day. Unfortunately the source doesn't have an exact time of the announcement.

The Lazygamer Awards 2012 – Game Of The Year

So here we are, this is the end, my beautiful friends…Ignoring that bit of reference from The Doors, this is the final award that we have to give out this year. It’s for the game that blew us away, that stole hours upon hours from our life, and gave back phenomenal gameplay and fun in return. And the Lazygamer game of the year 2012 award goes to…

On the 12 deals of Christmas, my true love gave to me…

The twelve deals of Christmas is back! Or, erm, actually, it’s been back for a few days now. And if you haven’t dropped by to check in on your Playstation 3 Network in a while now, you may have missed out on a few good deals. My bad. Anyway, there’s still quite a few games left to go until the sale ends. Let’s take a look shall we?

COD’s demise has been greatly exaggerated

The industry has cast doubt over Call of Duty’s longevity, with numerous analyst reports saying that the series had reached a plateau, or was even in decline. I’m afraid news of Call of Duty’s death have been greatly exaggerated.

Black Ops 2 patched! Here’s what’s been fixed

It’s odd. Black Ops 2 has been out for over a week, and we haven’t really had the usual fanfare from Activision about it being the BIGGEST SELLING THING IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. I wonder whether or not it’s broken the records set by the last Call of duty (and the Call of duty before that and the…you get the picture). It topped $500 million in its first day though – so that’s certainly something.

The Wii-U holds its own in the graphics department

A lot has been said about whether or not the Wii-U will be able to stand up to the current gen consoles, never mind the next gen that will arrive next year, and now with the release of Black Ops 2 on all platforms we can finally get our first real comparison.
