I own both and dont really see from a quality standpoint how COD could he argued to be the better game in any area.

And Im a COD fan not a hater at all but its inferior technically, visually, worse single player, worse gameplay, and far worse balanc3 in multi

I cant comment on Blops 2 personally... But a large lump of it is subjective.

The more popular game loses on an Internet vote. Theres a surprise.

The most telling "vote"?

Black Ops 2 Xbox 360... 1 Week - 6,210,135
Halo 4, after 3 Weeks - 5,158,526

You know what?

Microsoft had over 11 million people buy games for their console in a 4 week span. That is all that matters. BTW that is 11 million copies from only 2 franchises.

Given the amount of COD haters on IGN (not even these forums have that many COD haters), they could put COD up against Pong and it would still lose.

I don't know why they bother with this every year.

Halo 4 is too awesome of a game to be compared to lower quality game like Black Ops.
