Call of Duty Black Ops 2: Training Masterclass

The Final - FHM vs ZOO

The COD Black Ops II Masterclass is here. We've picked the finest Call Of Duty talent across the FHM, Zoo, Empire & Kerrang! editorial teams to battle it out on the next instalment of the award winning Call of Duty franchise, Black Ops II.

Our contestants have been put through rigorous training with Activision's finest to give them the best fighting chance in the COD Black Ops Masterclass battle of the brands.

Each week two of our brands faced each other in a range of multiplayer matches & maps to truly find out who was bigger and better. FHM, Kerrang!, Zoo or Empire?

The final saw FHM and Zoo magazines face each other. But who will rule the roost?

MEET THE PLAYERS_

Staff from some of the UK's biggest magazine titles will be battling it out in the brand new Call of Duty multiplayer maps. Check back each week to see exclusive video content on their progress.

What would you pay to get Black Ops II early?
For some people, the answer is (adopt Dr. Evil-type voice) SEVERAL HUNDRED ENGLISH POUNDS.

We tracked down one such individual to find out what's more of a virtue: patience or stumping up the cash and getting Black Ops II a few days early.
