Call of Duty: Black Ops Violence Toned Down
Apparently, our modern day technology has advanced to the point that animation can appear as realistic as we want it to be. This can be said for Call of Duty: Black Ops. Treyarch's seventh installment of the series has changed the way they do facial animation, but it has gotten to the point where it appeared too real. As animation director, Dominique Drozdz, puts it, "It was a contextual kill wh

Call of Duty: Black Ops Multiplayer Modes Revealed
Treyarch has revealed the multiplayer modes of the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops at a press event in Los Angeles last night. With Black Ops, it seems Treyarch is really stepping up its game to make up for the (arguable) failures and downsides of Modern Warfare 2 and to really prove itself as a AAA developer, because these multiplayer modes seem awesome.

What can you expect from Treyarch’s upcoming shooter? It seems like you’ll be following a group of elite solders on off the record missions, there will be tons of explosions, a Torque Bow, a lot of helicopters, snow levels, overly dramatic scenes and space travel. Though they haven’t come out and said where the locations of Black Ops will take place, a UK website has posted details saying "From Cuba to the Arctic and the jungles of Vietnam” all of these locations seem to be featured in the trailer. It looks promising, definitely can’t be worse than the Modern Warfare 2 campaign that’s for sure. Check out the new trailer.

Review: Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack #3
Treyarch definitely knows how to keep their fans happy. Though they have dealt with a very lukewarm reception to Call of Duty: World at War overall, they have done a spectacular job keeping their fans interested and involved by releasing three map packs to augment the game to date. We've covered every single one of them here at Spawn Kill, and now the third map pack review has rolled around. It can easily be summed up in one word: fantastic. This might just be the best map pack yet out of the three, mainly because of the phenomenal improvements made to the Nazi Zombie map in this go-around. In all, it's a fiendishly fun addition to your map pack collection that you'll want to fire up again and again. Just make sure to keep bathing. (more...)
