Black Ops 2 Combat Training Info
Unbelievably there are still some gamers who will play through the campaigns, but will avoid the multiplayer aspects, and for Call of Duty, the multiplayer is one of the biggest attractions to the game. It comes to no surprise then that Treyarch have put a lot of effort into encouraging those players into the online experience.
The first of those is going to be the inclusion of a competitive combat training mode experience, allowing players to level up to level 10 by fighting in groups against other similarly leveled players and AI. Once at level 10, this game mode becomes locked out, but players of any level can still

Black Ops 2 is now less than two months away, and as we get closer to release, we're likely to see some interesting footage and screenshots, and today we're going to focus on a certain part of Call of Duty that has helped to make the series such a success.

EA has made their marketing strategy clear. They want to beat the reigning champ, Call of Duty, or at least take a chunk out of its market share. Every first person shooter wants to be CoD and who can blame them? The money CoD rakes in every year is unbelievable.
Interestingly enough, this time EA is sticking to The Danger Close team making Medal of Honor Warfighter as grounded and real as possible in hope that it would attract the gamers. They believe that gamers who are looking for the authentic feel of a modern battlefield might prefer Warfighter over Black Ops 2. They have based this assumption on the fact that Treyarch has taken a very futuristic approach with BO2 which might not be well received by gamers. Some diehard CoD fans have actually voiced out their concerns regarding this in forums and blogs all over the internet.
If true, this could very well be MoH's year. It is obvious that MoH may surpasses BO2 thanks to its amazing Frostbite 2 engine. MoH is supposed to

Call of Duty Perk Programme
With all that is happening in the US regarding Call of Duty I guess UK didn't want to feel left out. UK's GAME recently announced their "Call of Duty Perk Programme". Basically this program will be giving off goodies to die hard CoD fans who will be pre-ordering the game.
The first wave will be receiving a Quadrotor theme for PS3 owners or a Quadrotor drone avatar for Xbox 360 owners. These bonuses could be one of the last waves for those who pre-order it from GameStop.
For now though, Nuketown 2025 and a double-sided poster have been revealed as the first two waves of pre-order bonuses for those who pre-order from GameStop.

Next-Gen Call of Duty Rumors
I guess there is no stopping the big bad Call of Duty machine. Even before Black Ops 2 is out there are already indications of another installment that will most probably be available for the next-gen consoles. There is no indication whether it will be the very next iteration of CoD but if it is the case then it would mean the next gen consoles are most definitely coming out in 2013.
There are multiple job listings and a resume from Infinity Ward that suggests that the studio's next game will for the next gen-consoles. According to the resume of Andrew Aye, Modern Warfare 3 engineer, Infinity

Black Ops 2 Multiplayer
With Black Ops 2 only a few months away from release, many gamers are literally sitting on the edge of their seats to get a glimpse of the multiplayer. Treyarch has provided enough opportunities to see and experience the single player campaign of Black Ops2, which looks amazing by the way. This instalment of CoD is supposedly the biggest of all the games in the franchise.
They have already shown quite a bit of the campaign for us to get an idea of the scale they are going for. The sandboxy levels in the main game called Strike Force really got my attention. The popular Zombies mode is also making a comeback is supposed to be a stand along game
