While the ex-Infinity Ward executives and Activision are in a war of their own, Treyarch steered clear of the ongoing showdown by pushing forward on the Call of Duty: Black Ops development. We have been blessed by Activision with the cover art for the next game in the most successful franchise in history. Instead of jets and explosions in the background we have this gentleman, some guns and a pistol named Sally. It looks as though Treyarch is going with a more dramatic approach with their first Call of Duty game set during the Cold War. This makes it the third title in the Call of Duty series to be set in modern day, or close enough that is.
