While details are still scant, Call of Duty: Black Ops will take players behind enemy lines in an entirely new chapter in the first-person action series of all-time. While the previous Modern Warfare 2 installment did not have a Wii version, it seems
Black Ops will change that, while USA Today reveals that the game is set during the Cold War era with at least two main characters.

Believe it or not, my most esteemed Sports Illustrated Swimsuit calendar in my office has a day missing this month. May 8th, which was supposed to be last Saturday, was placed on Sunday, with Saturday being a big, blank box. Why is that important?

Outrageous!
