Should I Play Black Ops 2? – The Cursed Checkpoint #202

Two Justins, neither of whom are big Call of Duty fans/players, tried Blacks Ops 2. Gifford finished and is still playing it. Lacey quit. Can Justin convince Justin to give Blops 2 another shot?

More digital Rooker please.

After avoiding Call of Duty for 5 years, I really wanted to like Black Ops 2. I wanted a mindless shooting gallery with huge set pieces and thought I was in the right mindset to play it, but then I ran into the Strikeforce missions. I sought out Justin Gifford who seemingly had as much hesitation to jump into Call of Duty as I did, and currently really enjoys everything Black Ops 2 has to offer. I figured if anyone was ever going to convince me to give it another chance, it was him. This is a checkpoint for people who play a lot of different games but just can’t seem to get into Call of Duty no matter how hard they try. This is also for new fans of the Call of Duty series that are still learning the ropes.
