Call of Duty/Trivia


 * Banned in China: World At War is banned in Japan for "gory violence against Japanese soldiers". It should be noted that the ban was quickly lifted.
 * Beam Me Up, Scotty: Call of Duty games often use the quote "only the dead have seen the end of war," attributing it to Plato.
 * Hey, It's That Voice!: Kiefer Sutherland and Gary Oldman in World at War. Yes, Jack Bauer and Count Dracula are your commanding officers.
 * No wonder Reznov had eyes like the devil.
 * Oldman is joined by Ed Harris in Black Ops.
 * And the two of them will also be accompanied by rapper Ice Cube.
 * Steve Blum voices your commander in Call of Duty 1, Giovanni Ribisi is a private, and Jason Statham is British SAS member too.
 * He returns as Tank Dempsey, one of the Fourth wall-breaking player characters in World At War's DLC Zombies Map Pack levels (you can also play the Map Pack levels in Black Ops).
 * Brian Johnson, vocalist of ACDC voices the British commander in Finest Hour.
 * In CoD2: Big Red One, Michael Cudlitz (Bull), Frank John Hughes (Guarnere), Richard Speight Jr (Muck), Ross McCall (Liebgott), Rick Gomez (Luz), and James Madio (Perconte) all had speaking roles. Who are they, you ask? They were in Band Of Brothers!
 * Sam Worthington, a.k.a Jake Sully from Avatar, voices Alex Mason in Black Ops.
 * MW3 was not the first time William Fichtner played a Delta Force operator.
 * Tony Curran voices Mac Millain (Baseplate) in Modern Warfare 3 and has been an SAS Commando before and played Vincent van Gogh on Doctor Who.
 * As mentioned on Call Of The Dead the Big Bad is George Romero. And who fights him? Machete, Michael Rooker, Robert Enguland and Buffy Summers.
 * Technology Marches On: Just try installing Call of Duty 2 on a Vista system. If it's Vista 32, you can flip a coin to determine if it will work. If it's 64, you're more into "flip an oil tanker" territory.
