War never changes

The City of Angels is prone to the odd megaton or two when E3 comes to town, but no amount of practice could prepare it for Call of Duty: Black Ops II's daunting interpretation of the future.

The footage shows L.A.’s familiar freeways transformed into a deadly battlefield, as America’s unmanned war assets are turned against them. There’s lots of shooting, plenty of explosions and a handful of new gadgets on display.

Expect to see lots more of Activision’s big-budget shooter sequel during E3.
