Call of Duty: Black Ops Is Out This November

looks cool

Nice   
 
Actually at least now they have a valid reason for Russians being the bad guys.

Yeah, looks nice.

Not sure if want.

I've been hearing that it will take place during the Cold War.

meh

The Arctic, Vietnam and Cuba have been confirmed by GAME apparently 

African American Ops.

Well at least it's not WW2 this time or at least I don't think it is with a name like that.

Fuck yeah.

Racist.

Vietcombies...nice.

Spider Senses tingling! Shitty game incoming!

" The Arcitc, Vietnam and Cuba have been confirmed by GAME apparently  "

It's just going to be a black screen, with the occasional light when you fire your gun. And Activision will rake in the money from it.

I'm interested. People shit on Treyarch a little too often just because they, unfortunately, have had to play second fiddle to Infinity Ward and Activision for so long now that we've not had a chance to see them do anything other than COD in some time. Still World at War wasn't a bad product, I'm interested in what they have to offer with Black Ops.

Cuban-Vietnamese zombies in the Arctic it is then. "

I am looking forward to a cinematic single-player/co-op campaign in 'Nam. That would be fun. BF Vietnam was a lot of fun, it got the atmosphere right.

Nooooooo!!! 
 
 
I wanted a 'Nam game, damnit!

I want a good sniper level.

Kill a Vietcombie for mommie! Looks like I might be getting another COD game despite my protests to myself. If only it was set in the modern day, then I wouldn't buy it. But the whole Cold War setting, and Vietnam make me want to play this game, because I LIKE Treyarch's COD entries, World at War had a violence and a brutality that made it seem like war. MW2 on the other hand, made me feel like I was constantly killing mannequins, even in the airport level.

I'll wait for whatever Respawn Entertainment cooks up instead.

Swatch Internet calendars wouldn't have this problem.

So, when does the video air tonight?

Didn't they do the recent James Bond game and Spiderman Web of Shadows?  But yeah, they get a lot more flak than they deserve. "

Maybe you'll be a tunnel rat.

I honestly enjoyed WaW more than MW .
From 2 to 4 I felt IW went downhill.
From 3 to 5 I felt Treyarch improved.
I have no reason to believe they won't improve even further with Black Ops.

It's a title. Need to know more before I start calling this game a rip-off of whatever IW has done.

Who knows Treyarch might pull this one out of nowhere

" Yeah, looks nice. 

Games involving Black Ops always end up with the Vice President concocting some secret plot to take power, and in the end you assassinate him. If Infinity Ward were developing Call of Duty these days, I'd expect it to involve some really shredding guitars to play as the player character fires a bullet in slow motion directly into the Vice President's head. Also the VP is making a joke about cracking down on Marijuana or something as the player sneaks up on him. 
 
Remember, no politics.

Navy Seal type ish?

Doesn't have the same ring to it!?  It's my birthday duder!  Halo2 came out on that day, and Gears2 was just a couple of days after!  It's consistently been an awesome day to be a gamer, and be a me!

Also, they seem to be continuing to stray from what seperated CoD from everything else in the first place.  CoD was mostly about you being one guy amongst many on a battlefield.  This title makes it sound like we're going full circle back to the Rainbow Six / Ghost Recon days, when everything was about the elite squad taking on an entire army.
 
I was hoping for CoD Vietnam, but as long as we get some sweet MACV-SOG / 'Spectres Over Laos' action going on it could be cool.

" @fillmoejoe: Tunnel Rats weren't Black Ops... Just specialized soldiers. "

Without sounding like a bitter ex, I really hope this game crashes and fucking burns.

Even though Treyarch can make a solid FPS, just seeing "Call of Duty" again is kind of turning me off from it.  I hope it doesn't feel like a MW2 expansion.

Vietnam, Cold War & "Modern Warfare" settings have all been flying around the rumour mill. The popular rumour is that it takes place across multiple different wars. Whether or not the rumours are true, only time will tell.  Either way, it sounds decent. No matter how much people criticize Treyarch - they make a solid game. Sure, their CoD's are not as good as IW's, but they're still good quality products, they're just constantly in the shadow of an amazing product. "

I can't wait to get my hands on this game.  I gotta own some noobs on Call of Duty!!!

So, since we're all in the dark about this one so far, let's open it up. What do you think the Black Ops zombies will be like? I mean, if it's not WWII, they can't exactly have Nazi Zombies, right? So... Islamic Extremist Zombies? Vietcong Zombies (otherwise known as Vietcombies)? Militia Overthrowing The US Government By Force Zombies?     "

Treyarch blows. Respawn Entertainment (aka the real IW) for life!
