Completing Call of Duty: Black Ops, we continue onto Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
Made as a direct sequel to the first game, this time we are introduced to a very innovative Call of Duty game, in terms of skipping between two different ages: the old Cold War and the New Cold War, brewing between USA and China in the year, well... 2025 (lucky us, huh?).
Centered around the New Cold War, in this game we are placed in the shoes of David Mason, a.k.a. "Section", a SEAL Team member and son of Alex Mason, the protagonist of the first game, as he leads the hunt for Raul Menendez, leader of a group called "Cordis Die", intent on creating havoc on USA and forcing the New Cold War to become a "hot conflict" between USA and China.
Menendez's reasons to start a "hot conflict" is directly connected to the events from the first Cold War, where he was a gunrunner for the Soviets during the Afghan War campaign, but his deeper motivations are related to his family and the tragedy that occurs.
All levels are completed in one life on Veteran Difficulty. The ending we are aiming for in this walkthrough is the best possible one.
