<Looks at Battlefield: vietname on shelf>

Activision are sure planning to milk the COD name for every penny - If battlefield has done it we better had to!

The new COD site has gone live early.

COD:Black Ops

Not sure where the vietnam came from unles it's related?

[Biscuit]

yeah this seems a bit wierd :/

I think i mentioned this a while ago as the WW2 is done to death, WW1 isn't that great for a game story and the modern titles aren't great so it was this or Falklands (but unlikely as Americans probably haven't heard of it)

"The title for its latest game may not actually be Call of Duty: Vietnam, but it’s certainly going to be set there."

i seen no mutual exclusivity between the Black Operations and Vietnam, infact http://www.nationalalliance.org/vietnam/ovrvw10.htm seems perfectly reasonable doesn't it

also, notice that NO COD GAME HAS YET USED THE LOCALE IN THE NAME OF THE GAME

Does that specifically state it won't be set in Vietnam? The game is not 'COD:Vietnam'

The article doesn't claim it to be either though. We'll get full details of it tonight.

I do love ANYTHING to do with Vietnam!

I'm not specifically talking about Hexus but everywhere has it as 'COD:Vietnam' - it's not called that Even Kotaku were caught out *I think*

[Rob_B]

Seems it's not a Vietnam setting...

[matty-hodgson]

I don't see where they're getting the modern setting thing from.

I'm hearing Cuba, Arctic and Vietnam.

[Biscuit]

I thought black ops was an odd name for a vietnam game.

most important questions though... will it have dedi or mod capability?

If not im not buying it - same as MW2
