Pushing the boundaries of what fans have come to expect from the record-setting entertainment franchise, Call of Duty: Black Ops II propels players into a near future, 21st Century Cold War, where technology and weapons have converged to create a new generation of warfare.
Combining incredible high-dynamic range graphics and sensational new gameplay, Black Ops II sets you off on secret operations as Frank Woods – the protagonist from the original Black Ops game.
The non-linear storyline will see you battling during a futuristic Cold War, as well as tackling flashbacks from historical missions and playing as various members of the Mason family. Every decision you make during this story will affect future consequences, giving you a different experience every time you play.

Great price but I also have it on xbox 360 and it looks and plays better on that and the xbox controller is better for the game. Still highly recommended for wii u owners who don't have access to another gaming system.

Just wondering - what is it that makes the 360 controller better for this? The two controllers are practically identical.

Whats cool about this game is that you can have 1 player on the wii u gamepad and one on the TV, perfect for 1v1 duels with friends, without seeing eachother screens!

That being said, the gamepad allow you to have the minimap, too bad you can't watch it as often as you wish :wink:

I'm tempted to say this version is my favourite. I love it on PC, but the wiimote controls in this version are excellent with a great range of parameters to edit. Closest thing to mouse and keyboard accuracy. £3.95?! Easy purchase decision. :smiley:

Have 770 credit store but only 700 points are actually usable so it makes the game £2.20 for me. Suppose I'll grab a copy again though I'll need to check out the story mode if it's anything interesting.

On the wiipad you can connect the mic/headphones.
But hey the minimap is cool if you are a camper :wink:
There is still a community around (but nowhere as big as ps360 )
for this price if you have a wii U is a steal

I usually stick to using my Wii U Pro Controller for the games that support it and very rarely the GamePad except for the games that require it. So as such, the WUPC doesn't have a mic port neither analogue triggers like the 360 controller does.
It's still a fantastic controller, nevertheless.

uhm.. You can connect mics. Either a dedicated headset or via a 3pin cable so you can connect any 3.5mm mic you want.
