It's time to remember which channel Spike TV is on your cable box this Friday as GameTrailers TV features a world-exclusive first look at the next game in the Call of Duty series, Call of Duty: World at War. Developed by the people's second choice for CoD Treyarch, the game promises to redefine the WWII genre, which I really need to see to believe.

"Considering the incredible reception our hardcore gamer audience has given the GT Diamond Award-winning Call of Duty franchise, we are confident that they'll go crazy for this never-before-seen footage from Call of Duty: World at War," said Geoff Keighley, host of GTTV. "We are thrilled that Activision turned to GTTV to unveil this exclusive, reinforcing GameTrailers' tradition of bringing fans the best quality and most sought-after content."

This week's episode also features footage from The Lord of the Rings: Conquest and some sort of exclusive Star Wars dealie from LucasArts. As always, GameTrailers TV airs Friday night at 1am Eastern time.
 
World at War? They stole that title from a game in the Tom Clancy series that comes out soon.


Also, Treyarch, they ruined Cod3.



otherwise cool news :)
 
I'm not sure I like the idea of going back to WW2. I'm sure it will be a great game as all COD titles are, but Modern Warfare grew on me.
 
I had avoided all Call of Duty games up until Modern Warfare. Not so sure I'd pick it up if it went back to WW2. They'd really have to do something to make it more unique than every other WW2 shooter.
 
every call of duty game was amazing, why should this one be any different
 
certainly though modern warfare was a GREAT jump for COD... i hope this one is as good!
 
i'll probably give this one a go. But i've really enjoyed modern warfare, so it'll be hard to beat.
 
I don't care how many WWII games they have to do until they get a really, really good one. CoD2 was good, but didn't feel like a real sort of scenario.
 
I saw a preview of this game already and I am going to say that this is going to be similar to CoD 3 except better graphics. Nothing different other than maybe more destructible content. How many times do we have to use the same weapons again and again?

Bah, let`s hope CoD 5 doesn`t suck as much as CoD 3 :/ But I must say I like WW2 games a bit better than modern games. Even if TF2 rocks thou !
 
I can't wait personally. Here's what Wikipedia has to say about the game:

Swimming elements will be introduced to the series for the first time in single player and multiplayer. While in water, the player can not sprint and will only move at half speed.


Multiplayer

World at War will feature cooperative gameplay (two players via split-screen or four players online) for the first time in the franchise. Vehicles, first introduced in Call of Duty: United Offensive, will return as well as new squad-based elements within multiplayer.


Plot

One part of a level entitled Maken Raid shows an Allied prisoner of war being tortured by the Japanese before having his throat slit by a katana. The player's character witnesses this scene and is later rescued by US Marines who liberate the camp.


Development

World at War will have a two-year development cycle, double that of Treyarch's previous title, Call of Duty 3. The game will be powered by an enhanced version of Infinity Ward's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare engine - improvements have been made to the physics engine and lighting model. Environments are now more destructible and can be set on fire with the flamethrower (which features propagating fire). Bullets can also cut holes in thin wood, making a gap big enough for the player to climb through.

It sounds pretty sick, and as a longtime CoD fan, I can't wait.
 
you all are right about modern warfare... i think "world at war" will be even better than modern warfare, i just have a feeling... they've added more authenticy to the game.. just watch when it comes out, it will be #1 again i promise you
