Rumors about the next Call of Duty being a continuation of Black Ops has been going around for months, but nothing solid really had come out to confirm if it was true or not.  A week ago, the video above surfaced and tipped on the next Call of Duty having a weapon shown in the video be part of the arsenal the player can control.  Earlier in the day, the UK site for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 was revealed before the actual announcement.  The game has yet to be formally announced by Activision through their site linked on the top, but it's pretty evident that the next Call of Duty is Black Ops 2.  From other sources, it seems that it will take place in the near future rather than the not so distant past that the original Black Ops was set in.

I'm not sure what to think of another Call of Duty anymore.  Black Ops had an incredible story, but a messy and boring gameplay experience for single-player.  Multiplayer was riddled with bugs that were never fixed and suffered from lag between the server's reception of data and the game's graphics animation.  Still, multiplayer did have some good points such as 2-player co-op online play.  I did enjoy Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer but I haven't even touched the single-player as there isn't any real drive to do so.  My interest in Call of Duty is starting to waver and I'm not sure if I'm willing to continue following the franchise.  I guess only time will tell.  Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is set to release on November 13th, 2012 on PC, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and maybe Wii/Wii U.
