Activision and Treyarch have released a new trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops, and it's filled with lots of interesting details. There are shots of some of the game's unusual weapons, including a crossbow with explosive bolts, and exotic aircraft such as the SR-71 Blackbird. There are also a few blink-and-you'll-miss-them moments, the highlight of which is a quick glimpse of the game's helicopter-piloting sequence.

Aside from that, it's also a nice overall look at the game in motion. If you're OD'd on FPS games, this one probably won't convert you, but if you're in the mood for more Call of Duty this should do the trick.

IF I GET TO FLY THAT SR-71 I'M BUYING 30 COPIES OF THIS GAME

it looks alright, but im worried that the helicopter controls wont be very good. they usually never are, and you end up with the good controls that are incredibly easy and unrealistic, like most open world games like gta and just cause, and the ones that ontrol terrible till you get the hang of it, but it is slightly more realistic, like battlefield bad company.

oh it will be good!

Call of Duty:World at War was my favorite Call of Duty title,I hope Black Ops will be just as good if not better.Fingers crossed since Modern Warfare was a huge disappointment to me and others.

I didn't know Bruce Willis was in this game! Looks like Treyarch is trying to pull off a modern warfare, good luck to them.

Wait.....so it isn't Vietnam?
by Therrook Wednesday, May 19, 2010 at 10:04 AM

anything call of duty will be good!!!!!!

@Colton & stephen_815: the SR-71 was in service from 1966 to 1998, so unless the government kept running it as part of its "Black Ops" I'm guessing the time period should be somewhere in there (which would include the Vietnam War).

Only the second trailer but it keeps looking good and sounding like it hopefully has a better story then MW 2.
by Solid Snake Wednesday, May 19, 2010 at 10:34 AM

I hope they can pull through with out Infinity Ward. Even though I hate how they're gone I still want to see some good COD games.
by OmegaSpartan08 Wednesday, May 19, 2010 at 10:36 AM
