Black Ops takes a leaf out of Modern Warfare's book for this blockbuster sequel

As much as we've enjoyed the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare games, the first …Black Ops left us pretty cold. Thankfully, those responsible have clearly learnt from their mistakes last time around and have won us over with this sensational sequel.

Set in the near future, this first-person shooter wastes no opportunity to kit players out with all manner of cool military hardware and provide plenty of targets to use it on. The dev team has also cut loose with the action set-pieces, throwing you into events that look and sound like they've been ripped straight from a Summer blockbuster. Couple that with superior multiplayer modes and …Black Ops II is clearly tailor-made for your big screen.

Activision, Xbox 360/PS3/Wii U/PC, £50 Approx
HCC VERDICT: 4/5
