Black Ops 2's PS5 Port Receives Emergency Patch After Hackers Bricked Accounts
"You may briefly see an account ban notice".

32 Packs Of DLC For Black Ops 2 Are Now Free To Claim On Xbox
Hopefully the base game gets a discount soon as well. The release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 on PlayStation didn't bring about any changes to the Xbox versions in terms of how they play, but a few changes were evidently made to the how they've been priced on the Microsoft Store.

Expensive and pointless? Black Ops 1 and 2 PS4 and PS5 ports cost a lot of money and barely offer any upgrades over the originals
The promised PlayStation 4 and 5 ports of Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 have arrived. But unfortunately, these updated releases have left players disappointed at the quality offered for the price. Activision is charging £35 ($40) for each Black Ops re-release, meaning a total of £70 ($80) if you want both. These prices do not include their DLC packs, either, which is unusual given how most game re-releases these days typically come with all associated content bundled in.
Xbox Seems To Be Making A Fortune On The New Black Ops Ports For PS5
They've been spotted trending higher than GTA 6. When Activision shadow dropped the new ports of Black Ops 1 and Black Ops 2 on PlayStation consoles last week, it quickly became obvious that people were lapping them up despite the lack of any real improvements to either game. Now that we're a few days on, we're starting to see just popular these ports have become, with both games spotted trending higher than even GTA 6 on the PlayStation Store over the weekend.

Sources of Call of Duty fansite Charlie Intel claim there are more people playing the “bare bones” ports of Black Ops 1 and 2 on the PS5 than the latest game Black Ops 7 across all consoles. While I haven’t been able to corroborate that information, it’s not a huge surprise. Engagement on the games has been through the roof here on Push Square, while both titles have shot straight to the top of the best sellers list on the PS Store.

Digital Foundry Shares Its Initial Analysis Of Black Ops 1 For PS5 Vs. Xbox
"This is a deeply odd state of affairs". We mentioned last night how Activision had released new ports of Black Ops 1 and Black Ops 2 for PlayStation consoles, and in the initial footage that was doing the rounds, it seemed like very little had changed compared to the original Xbox 360 (and PS3) releases from back in the 2010s. Digital Foundry is one of the first outlets to provide an early analysis of Black Ops 1 specifically, and it's fair to say they're not very impressed. The article mention
Rumour: Call Of Duty Black Ops 1 & 2 Switch Ports Supposedly "Not Planned"
Out of sight. Activision shadow-dropped Call of Duty: Black Ops and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 on the PS4 & PS5 this week. Unsurprisingly, it's led to questions about the possibility of Switch ports. If you do have an itchy trigger finger, you'll supposedly look elsewhere for your first-person shooter thrills, as versions for Nintendo's current systems are apparently "not planned".
Black Ops 1 & 2 Now Live On PS5, Here's Some Early Footage Compared To Xbox
A surprise shadow drop. As you may have seen, the Call of Duty: Black Ops and Black Ops 2 ports have shadow dropped on PS5 (and PS4) today, and there already seems to be a ridiculous amount of interest in both of them on the platform. It's still very, very early days here, but we wanted to at least provide you with some early footage so you can judge for yourself how different the new PlayStation and old Xbox versions are, and at first glance it does seem like these are mostly straight ports wit

Xbox DLC Price Drop Ahead Of Call Of Duty: Black Ops 1 & 2 PS5 Ports
Captain Overpriced. It seems that PlayStation owners aren't keen on having to fork over $40 for a 16-year-old Call of Duty game without all the bells and whistles. Treyarch announced earlier this month that both Call of Duty: Black Ops and Black Ops 2 were finally being ported to Sony hardware, but the poor reception comes in light of price adjustments on the Xbox Store.

The two classic games will arrive at some point in July, and will include all three modes from the originals: campaign, Zombies, and multiplayer.

On X, anyway. It feels like there’s more enthusiasm for PS5’s upcoming ports of Call of Duty: Black Ops and Call Black Ops 2, due out in July, than the brand-new Modern Warfare 4. At least, that’s the case on social media platform X (or Twitter), where Treyarch’s post about the ports has attracted more than 158k likes at the time of writing, compared to Modern Warfare 4’s reveal trailer, which has 78k likes.

Treyarch Confuses Xbox Fans With Black Ops 1 & 2 Reveal For PS5
"The games are compromised on both Xbox and PC". Last night, out of nowhere, Call of Duty: Black Ops developer Treyarch announced that Iron Galaxy would be porting the original Black Ops and Black Ops 2 to PS5 (and presumably PS4) in July, but didn't say anything about other platforms. As you're probably well aware, these two games already exist on modern Xbox consoles thanks to backwards compatibility, but Xbox fans have still been left confused by the announcement, pointing out that the Xbox v
