Pre-orders for Call of Duty: Black Ops II on Amazon have already achieved more than three times the orders for the first Black Ops game in the first twenty-four hours, according to the company’s PR dept. Other retailers have yet to comment on their pre-order numbers, but the game is already looking like it’s going to be one of this year’s biggest titles.
Starhawk Trophy List
With less than a week to go till Starhawk drops in-stores, SCEA have revealed the complete trophy list for the game (excluding hidden trophies). The game has a lot of trophies to unlock, including the coveted Platinum trophy. Some of these trophies will take a while to unlock, so be prepared to spend lots of hours online playing the game (lets hope they aren’t as hard as the Warhawk trophies).
