Call of Duty: Black Ops The biggest name in military games gets its next installment on November 9 -- but how much do you really know about this hotly-anticipated, Cold War-era shooter? In a few minutes, you'll know plenty.

1. It might be a Call of Duty game, but it doesn’t have all that much in common with Modern Warfare 2.

Yup -- different era, different characters, but most importantly, an entirely different developer. Black Ops comes from Santa Monica-based Treyarch, the firm responsible for Call of Duty: World at War, Call of Duty 2: Big Red One, and (looking further back) well-regarded ports of the early Tony Hawk games. It’s probably fair to say they’re not held in quite the same regard as Infinity Ward, Modern Warfare’s now-gutted developer, but nevertheless expectations are high for Black Ops.
