Black Ops 2: Platinum Edition
This creepypasta dates back to 2012, and hot damn it's so goofy and poorly executed. Worst one I've read in months. Enjoy!
Call of Duty, the best selling first-person shooter or all time. Even though I complain how every game they crank out every year is the same something kept reeling me in. I always would buy the special editions that come with a toy or something and this years Black Ops 2 came with a replica "Care Package".
Recently my friend told me that if your work at gamestop you got to close the store and play the game you were opening for "Mid-night Madness". This made me go get a job at the local Game-Stop so I could play Black Ops 2 earlier.
Two days before the game came out I was looking at the Pre-Order list and noticed something strange. On the list was a "Call of Duty : Black Ops 2 Platinum Edition". I never heard of this version and this was strange as I always was looking for news on the series. Now the even stranger thing was that it had no pre-orders. This made me cancel my pre-order on the Care-Package and put my money on the Platinum Edition.
As soon as the Midnight Madness ended I went to the back and opened the box containing the game I was so excited to play. I noticed the game was just like the normal Special Edition. It was in a care package box but it had the orange part of the box was had "Platinum" engraved in the left side. I wasn't really surprised as it was only ten dollars more the the normal special edition.
When I got home I opened it up and took out the R-C Drone, Tokens, and the grabbed the game. I opened the case and put the game in my X-BOX 360. It started with the title screen, no acitvision logo, niether was there a treyarch logo, just the title screen. I pressed start and it took me straight to the multiplayer. I pressed public game and it brought me into a game almost instantly on a map called "Sweden".
I was amazed at speed it took but on the realese day I would expect nothing else. The game started me in a house. I walked over to a window and left the house. When I got outside their we're alot of civilians. I started shooting at them for fun, like most would. I noticed that every civilian had really realistic screams, and blood, but I kept shooting either way.
I got bored as there were no players in the match. I guessed that the game mode was a new one that played somewhat like GTA. Eventually the police came and told me to put the gun down, But sounded like a real person, angry,sturn, and slightly afraid. I started shooting and they shot back, but instead of a strawberry jam looking blood on the screen, it went black.
It took me back to the X-BOX Dashboard and I kept trying to play the game again but it kept saying it couldn't read the disk and no Icon came up in the game slot. I was angry that my planned week of the game was cancelled because of this event I switched to the digital cable box. I was channel surfing when I saw a news report. It was about a man in Sweden who jumped out his window and started randomly shooting at a group of civilians.
I then started having a mental break down because of how hard it was to wrap my brain around the fact that I took control of a man a shot at a group of inocent people, then having the poor person I controlled get shot in the face. I dug in the care-package box hoping to find an explanation for the game. I found a piece of paper containing the code for the "Nuke Town 2025" map but the stuff you have to scratch off to reveal the code was already scratched off. Instead of a code it had a message.
You completed our dirty work, now we thank you. - Activision
I looked in the box again and found another copy of Black Ops 2 signed by the Treyarch crew, Nuke Town 2025, and a gift card to my local Game-Stop for two-hundred dollars.
I fell to the floor in tears, knowing what I have done. I looked up as the news reported said something that caught my eye. The man who I was controlling was Karl-Magnus Troedsson, the CEO of DICE, The developer who makes the Battlefield series.
