I know! Who’d have thought that there would be another Call Of Duty game. And that they would advertise its existence with miniaturised motion pictures on the internet! Well, dowse your incredulity and set course for hyperbole island, because below the jump is a trailer for the fifth Call of Duty game. World At War, for that is its entirely generic subtitle, is a World War II game, and it’s being developed by Treyarch, who did Call Of Duty 3. And it actually got announced last month or something, but we were busy looking out of the window to bother mentioning it. The details that have emerged so far is that there will be four-player co-op and “swimming elements”. It should be out later this year. For Christmas, probably.
Jungles, crashing planes, dudes getting chopped with big knives: it’s one of those videogames we all know and love.
I’m still more excited about the new Brothers In Arms. I am SO slightly-left-of-mainstream.

Do you realize that every Call of Duty game has you switch roles and play as different nations?
Britain, Russia, British men in Africa, a Polish tank crew, Canadians and Americans. So you are kind of proven wrong.
I’m willing to bet that you could build the nicest holiday home in existence on Hyperbole Island.
To get flamethrowers they had to go back in time. Modern armies do not use them.
Still, wish they’d go for some variety.
Spanish Civil War would be interesting, as would being an Askari (native infantryman) in some North African King’s Light Rifle unit. Or Nepalese Ghurkas, or the Special Boat Service/ U.S. Navy Sea-bees. Greek partisans, Free French Foreign Legion. Lot’s of completely un-used scenarios. Even a Blitzkrieg 1940/France scenario could be interesting.
