Black Ops 2 Zombies: nine celebs who should be playable characters

Sarah Michelle Gellar was just the beginning, hopefully

Call of Duty: Black Ops DLC pack Call of the Dead had playable B-movie actors in it, and there is absolutely no good reason God's own Earth why this shouldn't be the start of a trend. Suggestions to the contrary will result in account deletion and possibly, a stern letter to Mr T with your address and phone number on it.

Thirsty for info on new Zombie Mode mechanics in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2? You should read this list of desperately wanted stuff and these musings by vice-president of production Daniel Suarez. Read on for the (vaguely) famous faces that belong in Treyarch's next shooter, kicking undead ass and taking names.

Michelle Rodriguez

This one's a two-birds-one-stone affair. Want Rodriguez in your multiplayer, Activision? You'll have to include vehicles then, because if there's one thing we know about Rodriguez, it's that she has to pilot a helicopter. Otherwise, she wouldn't be Michelle Rodriguez.

  1. I was hoping to see Dolph Lundgren or Michael Jai White in there, those 2 would've been awesome to have in zombies, I'd also give a mention to the OXM editors, I reckon that would be worth my 45 quid hearing one of you guys giving it some vocals ;).

  2. and you forgot about jackie chan,bruce lee and maybe even anyone from oxm..lol

  3. I also forgot Uma Thurman and Milla Jovovich.

  4. I also forgot Uma Thurman and Milla Jovovich.

    And that girl from the Ghost Rider movie, Eve Mendes.

  5. My dream team of 8 people would be made up of: Barack Obama; Morgan Freeman; Chuck Norris; Jesus; Alan from the Hangover; John Marston; Megan Fox and Peter Griffin. One can dream cant he?

  6. To be honest I refuse to go through Page after page to see who is on this list when it could so easily be on one page!!!

    WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR :evil:

    I hope that Black Ops 2 Does have some great Characters - If not actual people Like Sarah Michelle Geller then How about ones like the Crow (Brandon Lee). I too would like some sexy kick ass people as well... Sure looks good against hordes of undead zombies chasing after you...

  7. I wouldn't be surprised if Barack Obama ended up in Black Ops 5, assuming he's out of office by then. Plenty of former Presidents in Black Ops 1.

  8. To be honest I refuse to go through Page after page to see who is on this list when it could so easily be on one page!!!

    WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR :evil:

    Because we need the page impressions, basically, though I'll admit we've gone a bit overboard today ;) Was just discussing pagination with Jonty, actually. Any other thoughts?

    I can understand it sometimes - certainly if you have a lot of text but not on something like this - you could very easily condensed this down to 2 pages at most with a little photo of each without changing any of the text!

    Even when you do games lists (like the 6 page one of games that sold a lot but people hate) could have been condensed to 2 or maybe 3 at most!

    Personally for me it is getting more and more tedious trawling through page after page which take a second (If that) to read!

    It is not like it is a 'Serious' article either with any real factual information.

    If you are going to do things like this in future could you please put a description/title or in this case name to each page on the first and you can also use that as a Link

    For example

    1) Michelle Rodriguez (linked to the page)
    2) ......
    3)....... etc.

    or just stop doing this - maybe have a minimum number of words per page - If you haven't reached it then don't start a new page!!

    I would be much more inclined to have clicked through 2-3 pages on this but not this many!!

  10. Interesting thoughts. I'll look into it.

  11. I used to hate the page thing too but if it means more free oxm website then why should I care? I'd rather Ed can afford the tobacco for the pipes that I imagine he smokes.

    Though the one small paragraph per page ones are a bit pushing it, but again - monocle insurance.

    On topic; I didn't read this article but I hope Chuck Norris and Jack Bauer are in there, along with Michael Biehn(?)...aliens/terminator guy.

    * Just read it, CN, Nathan Fillion and Shatner are inspired. Sean Bean is very much missing, makes me think of Idris Elba too for some reason.

    How about Denzel washington? He's in every sub-AAA action movie ever.

  12. all that was ever needed was Bruce, with his right hand removed and replaced with the Power Fist (Army of Darkness) he would be able to duel wield those Boomsticks with ease, but the chainsaw hand is a must, mabey if you could get meale weapons in zombies then the chainsaw hand would be Bruces chainsaw, after all the Evil Dead is a documentary

  13. are we forgetting simon pegg and nick frost :?:

  14. Btw Ed I was making a point about your nice writing style and always imagine you in late 1800s person attire, I'm not saying you need the webhits to fund stupid upper class stereotypes... I've just realised how it looks like I was getting at you, so hope this clarifies that. Well, unless you don't take 1800s person style as a compliment. In that case, I'd be getting at you. :wink:

  15. Sylvester Stillone would be pretty wicked, Mr-T, the French guy from the american Godzilla Jean Reno, A good mix of comady & action people but really I'm fine with no names.

  16. No Phillip Glenster?

    I am very disappointed...

  17. Sarah Silverman would be fun, every time I see or hear here name I think of the video she done "I'm f**king Matt Damon" and she's hot to.

    Could have Tony Blair and Gordon Brown as the Zombies, everyone would love to blow the shit out of them. As for playables Woody Harrelson, Jack Black, Tom Cruise(only if they make him 6ft), Sly Stallone and Al Pacino dressed as Tony Montana, last of all Hulk Hogan lol

  18. :lol: That's especially funny for me,Philip Glenister is a bit of a knob.Met him a few years ago as me and my mate were extras in Life On Mars.We did one scene in a pub and all he had to do was walk in threaten the barman for some info. and then grab a piece of paper off the noticeboard.Twenty takes later.............. :lol:
