I'm pretty much in now. Can wait on NFS and Halo 4. Will need something to help me through the winter.

I remember back when Call of Duty was just another WWII shooter. Basic MP. Loved 2 and 3. Different beast now.

Treyarch Defends Black Ops' Aging Engine
Treyarch has defended using the seven-year-old IW engine to power Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
In an interview with OXM, game design director David Vondehaar explained that modifications had been made to ensure the game ran robustly, and admitted he was baffled that anyone would criticise the title's technical performance.
"Anybody who comes at the engine needs to remember it's the 60 frames they love in the first place," he asserted. "And we can make it beautiful - that's through years and years of working with the engine, improving upon it and improving the pipeline and improving our approach, our lighting rendering.
"People like to talk about the engine, but the truth of the matter is that this isn't like something that was invented six years ago. At this point that engine doesn't resemble anything like any engine - we've ripped out the UI system, the rendering and the lighting are all new, the core gameplay systems are all new.
"To me, it's like I never really understood," Vondehaar concluded. "It runs at 60 and it's gorgeous. What exactly is there to be upset about with the engine?"
The IW Engine has been used by both Infinity Ward and Treyarch for the companies' work on the Call of Duty games. It was first used for Call of Duty 2 back in 2005, and the exact engine being used for Black Ops II is a modified version of the IW 3.0 engine that was used for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, as well as the original Black Ops. The PC version of the game is also confirmed to take advantage of DirectX 11 video cards.

I have little knowledge on this subject, but if the game plays like CoD:MW I'd be ok with that
can anyone explain in detail what the engine affects other than the graphics? what does MW2 run on?

I find it pretty gay that if you want nuketown 2025 zombies you have to get the whatever edition. The 80 dollar one

From what I gather, the engine effects the look AND gameply, mainly the physics. So they can tweak the UI and whatnot all they want, but it will still play like a COD game, which won't bother a lot of people. The Unreal engine was used by a lot of game developers, even in the Batman games, but that one is different because it was designed to be extremely customizable.

Is that map for Zombies a separate deal?
