The sequel to Call of Duty: Black Ops was pretty much expected, especially if you happen to be a fan of the series. What was unknown is the release date of course, but luckily for us some new details have emerge that suggest the release date of 11.13.12, which is right around the corner. In an image posted on IGN, there are two Target Pre-Order cards one for the PS3 and the other for 360 that shed some light on a future game.

Since Black Ops was developed by Treyarch chances are that they are the studio behind this game as well, but I guess we will have to wait and see.  Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 will be announced on May 1st, 2012 at the NBA playoffs.

In a phone interview with Wired last month, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg said that the company wants to release more downloadable content for the Call of Duty series more quickly, adding that some of the DLC might not just be multiplayer maps.

“The idea of giving people constant incremental playable content and making it so you’re never more than a few weeks away from the next new experience within the Call of Duty universe is part of what we’re experimenting with,” Hirshberg told Wired.

After noting how listening to its fans is important and how players want more DLC, Hirshberg added,  “One of the things that was most appealing when we were researching these ideas with consumers is the idea of breaking up the DLC so that it comes more often and more regularly,” said Hirshberg. “We want to provide DLC to people more often and also experiment with more of a variety in the forms of playable content.”

This experimentation could result in DLC comprising of  “missions or spec-op modes,” and not just multiplayer maps which are always cranked out for CoD games post-release.

Take a look at these new screenshots for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. This game as of now is the leader in it’s genre, but with Battlefield 3 coming out we feel that it might have some competition coming it’s way. Below are about 11 screens that should feed you hype until the game comes out, which is soon. Be sure to check out our Modern Battlefield sweepstakes that gives two lucky winners a chance to a copy of either of the games.

It was about time for a new Medal Of Honor to surface. The folks over at Electronics arts (EA) have kept their lips tied on this one and we can’t blame them. This new Medal Of Honor will probably be the one that finally competes with Call Of Duty, but then again many have failed. A new modern war game, but with the feel of Medal Of Honor using next generation technology to develop it wih awesome graphics. Check out the trailer below.
