Four [[Sociopathic Soldier|batshit insane]], [[Crazy Awesome]] grunts take on the undead hordes of the Axis. Or replace the grunts with four historical figures from the 1960s or four horror-genre celebrities, possibly less insane but still pretty [[Crazy Awesome]].
Line 6:
A bonus mode in ''[[Call of Duty]]: World at War'' and a standalone [[IOS Games|iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad game]] where you originally play as one of four [[Heroic Mime|silent]] US soldiers holed up in a wrecked base near an airfield, it eventually turns through [[Downloadable Content]] into... a [[Excuse Plot|somewhat-better-explained]] plotless series of American (and later, Soviet, Japanese and Nazi) soldiers massacring the undead [[Endless Game|'til they join their ranks.]]
''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops
[http://www.startwit.com/yelyahwilliams/celebrity-status/4824916981/cod4-nazi-zombies Endorsed] by [[Paramore|Hayley Williams]].
Line 15:
{{quote| '''''"YOU JUST FUCKED WITH THE WRONG MEXICAN!"'''''}}
** Robert Englund in the trailer.
{{quote| ''"This must be a [[A Nightmare
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Fidel Castro and Robert McNamara in ''Five''.
* [[Abandoned Hospital]] - "Verruckt". Actually an asylum, though.
Line 55:
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Robert Englund gets hit in the face by George Romero, thumped on the back of the head by [[Danny Trejo]] and karate-kicked onto his back by [[Sarah Michelle Gellar]].
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: Takeo and Dempsey on Moon. ''Pokemon'' style, no less.
* [[Celebrity Survivor]]/[[Celebrity Star]]: The "Escalation" DLC features four celebrities as zombie-killers -- [[Sarah Michelle Gellar]], [[A Nightmare
** And [[Night of the Living Dead|George Romero]], but he's a boss zombie.
* [[Cerebus Syndrome]] - The intel in ''Black Ops'' reveals that Dempsey and company were guinea pigs (not literally, of course) and are infected, but instead of turning into zombies, they got stronger and healthier, but were inflicted with [[Laser-Guided Amnesia]].
Line 101:
* {{spoiler|[[Earthshattering Kaboom]]}}
* [[Elaborate Underground Base]] - ''Der Riese'', though parts of it are on the surface.
* [[Enemy Mine]]: One [[Eagle Land|American]] [[Semper Fi|Marine]] and one [[Vodka Drunkenski|always drunk]] [[Reds
** In the trailers Dempsey and Takeo team up, despite them being direct enemies. Same goes for Richtofen and Nikolai.
* [[Endless Game]] - If this mode DOES have an ending, [[Kill Screen|it's most likely not what you would expect.]]
** Which turns into [[Canon Dis Continuity]] which each new map. Just when you think they're all dead, the teleporter overuse takes them to a new place. Except, maybe, for ''Five''.
*** And then in ''Call Of The Dead'' {{spoiler|the original cast shows up trapped, [[Easter Egg|and you can help free them]].}}
* [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Everything's Better
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Applied to Nikolai and Richtofen, in that their respective factions are ''scared shitless'' of them. Especially Nikolai, who scared ''Stalin.''
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Dempsey does this occasionally, but Richtofen indulges in this ''very'' often.
Line 115:
* [[Feel No Pain]] - Zombies do not react in pain to the weaponry that hit or dismember them - they keep coming unless they die. They'll even generally crawl after you if you've knocked their legs off.
* [[Fire-Forged Friends]]: Well, not friends, but as they are under increasingly serious attack, the characters will act more like a team. (At least they say they will. Whether they do or not is up to the players.)
* [[Forgot to Pay
{{quote| ''"Who didn't pay electric bill?"''}}
* [[Frickin' Laser Beams]]: If a gun fired bullets before you upgraded it in the Pack-a-Punch, chances are it'll now fire lasers.
Line 134:
** Rictofen also does this... In more funnier,sinister way.
{{quote| '''Rictofen''':''"He can't fight now... He's being... DISARMED! [[Evil Laugh|Ahahahaha!]]"''}}
* [[Infinity+1 Sword]] - All the way back to the very first map, ''Nacht der Untoten'', the [[Exactly What It Says
** Slowly gets subverted the higher the round number due to the zombies getting more health every round. The subversion is why the Bowie Knife was introduced in ''Der Riese'', and THAT gets subverted after a while.
** And then the Thundergun in ''Kino der Toten'', which is always a one hit kill. And then the Winter's Howl on ''Five'', and ''they'' get subverted eventually, too!
Line 141:
* [[Interactive Narrator]] - All the 1940's characters can hear the Demonic Announcer. Leading to these lovely exchanges:
{{quote| '''Demonic Announcer''': '''''"FETCH ME THEIR SOULS!"'''''<br />
'''Nikolai''': ''"[[Oh, No, Not Again|Oh, no! They're going to fetch our souls again!]]"''<br />
'''Dempsey''': ''"[[Verb This|Fetch my grenade, Devil-voice!]]"'' }}
* [[Jungle Japes]] - Shangri-La.
* [[Just Add Bitch]] - The upgraded M1911 pistol is called the C-3000 ''b1atch''35.
* [[Kill It
** Flamethrowers are useful if you have the Double Tap perk, because the increased [[Incredibly Lame Pun|fire]] rate means that the zombies burn up a lot quicker. Pack-A-Punching it adds nitrogen cooling to your flamethrower, making this much more practical.
* [[Knife Nut]] - Everyone in ''Der Riese'' once they get their hands on a Bowie Knife, which looks more like a short sword.
Line 196:
* [[Power-Up]] - Comes in six flavors: [[Nuke'Em|Nuke]], [[Magic Tool|Carpenter]], [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill|Insta]]-[[One-Hit Kill|Kill]], [[Pinball Scoring|Double Points]], [[Garage Sale|Fire Sale,]] [[After Boss Recovery|Max Ammo, usually dropped after Hellhound rounds.]]
** ''Five'' also introduced Bonfire Sale, which opens the Pack-A-Punch room and cuts the price in half.
*** And with ''Ascension'' comes the [[Exactly What It Says
*** And now in ''Call of the Dead'', completing {{spoiler|the trapped characters [[Easter Egg]]}} will reward you with the lightning bolt power-up that grants the player a Wunderwaffe-DG2
*** [[Blessed
* [[Psycho Electro]] - Dempsey's more... fond of the Wunderwaffe than the other characters.
* [[Rasputinian Death]] - Nikolai [[Lampshade Hanging|notes]] the ability for a zombie to keep coming at you with arms, legs, and even a ''head'' blown off in one of his quotes.
Line 234:
** One of the American soldiers in ''Verruckt'' - '''''"THIS IS MY BOOMSTICK!!"''''', among other [[Evil Dead]] lines.
** ''Kino der Toten'' is a ''huge'' one to [[Inglourious Basterds]] - complete with MP40, the only available WWII weapon!
** Pack-A-Punching the Spectre in ''Black Ops''' Zombies Mode will turn it into the Phantom, which is [[AKA-47|the name the Spectre went by]] in [[
** ''"[[Batman|Holy Undead Space Monkeys]]!"''
*** Pack-A-Punching the [[Commando (
** Occasionally, Nixon will say '''''[[Futurama|"AROO!"]]'''''
** ''"Yeah, yeah, yeah, [[Die Hard
** [[Danny Trejo]]'s lines are more or less his dialogue from ''[[Machete]]''.
** And [[Sarah Michelle Gellar]] is just playing [[Buffy]].
