Call of Duty: Black Ops gets zombies too

It's some kind of unofficial zombie day, as we discover that the living dead are taking over the new Call of Duty: Black Ops as well. Braains?

It seems you just can't keep a dead man down, today. Not only have zombies invaded Red Dead Redemption, but we've just learnt that zombies are going to be on the menu in the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops.

"Zombies have been such a hit with our community that we were committed to bringing brand new zombie experiences to Call of Duty: Black Ops," said Treyarch Studio Head, Mark Lamia in a recent release. "We've taken extra special care to retain the essential ingredients of our Zombie game, and have also crafted a nice surprise for the fans."

Black Ops will feature a four player co-op mode that pits special forces against an AI controlled undead horde. Call it Left 4 Dead in fatigues, call it zom-sploitation, we really don't care - it sounds like awesome fun.

Call of Duty: Black Ops is released on November 9, and keep an eye out for an upcoming Atomic event on the 15th of November... lock and load, Atomicans!

Aliens: Colonial Marines in depth; Z-77 Motherboard round-up; strategy gaming special; Home Server tutorial. PLUS MUCH MORE - ON SALE NOW!

Darkmatter Oct 1, 2010 1:10 PM	ahh boo paid DLC :(. I'm going to wait and get BFBC2:V and blast out some CCR while flying around in a Huey. I think out of the 3 games its the only one that should work out of the box and not have to rely on months of patches

SparrowFart Oct 1, 2010 1:42 PM	Nazi Zombies that was awesome. oh if if you didnt notice once again we have been reminded of the release date! prehaps people tend to forget.... every second day

somemadcaaant Oct 1, 2010 2:36 PM	Bah COD 10, 12 or what ever it is… just like cave men being probed by aliens (rubs bum), it just ain’t gonna be anything new IMHO. Same old same old. They shoulda just kept pumping out maps and exp's for COD4! Seriously these aren't whole games their making, their multiplayer updates!!! Can’t you mindless kids see that!!!?!!...? Now, back to hiding behind a pile of paperwork to beat my last solitaire score… ahhhhh.
Darkmatter Oct 1, 2010 3:37 PM	@Hawkeye I'm sure it'll be in the rotation, hopefully we can broaden the taste of music the kids of tady seem to lack. points @shuriken

The_Soul_-_Stripped Oct 1, 2010 5:44 PM	I wonder if I am the only person under 30 that listens to (And enjoys) Credence? To bad the harddrive with my music is buggered...
GeekyTalon Oct 1, 2010 7:15 PM	IL be so pissed if this zombie feature is a paid DLC. That'll be ridiculous. In the mean time... BRRAIINSS.
jdog Oct 3, 2010 7:25 PM	i still listen to the old school stuff.....
