Call of Duty Black Ops Uncut Trailer

I've never been a big fan of the Treyarch developed CoD games.  They've always underwhelmed me.  Perhaps I was just tired of the World War II era. 

The new trailer for Black Ops has me feeling a little bit more optimistic about title.  Considering that the game is supposed to be set in the 60's or 70's the characters look rather "modern."  In addition some of the guns look a little high tech for the era.  It's also interesting to see a SR-71 Blackbird make an appearance in the trailer, considering it had just made it's appearance at the start of the Vietnam War.

The one thing I did always like about Treyarch's games was that the character models can actually explode into pieces - making mine and grenade kills much more satisfying.  Watching pieces of Japanese go flying after a bouncing betty sprang in World at War was one of my guilty pleasures.  It looks like Black Ops will have more of the same.  Make sure to watch the end of the trailer for the "asploding" goodness.
