Here's the blip from the site:

“There will be co-op for the first time in a Call of Duty. Also there will be vehicles and squad-based elements to the multiplayer. Formats: PC, PS3, 360 and Wii. The Wii version is being worked on by a separate team within Treyarch. (The mag) reckons it’ll be a much closer comparison between the next-gen and Wii versions than any other Wii game on the market.

“Jeez, they have the CoD4 engine running on the Wii apparently. They are using (the CoD4 engine) for all the next-gen ones too. The Wii Zapper will be supported.”

I'm pretty sketchy on this game since it's made by Treyarch but I am dying to see how COD5 looks running on the Wii with the COD4 engine. And co-op... I may just be picking this up if I see more good news like this.

[Dyne]

Hmm. As long as it runs at 60FPS it'll be sweet on Wii.

[Aladuf]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I'd definetly get it for the Wii if it ends up being decent on there.

[Fox 6]

I dunno. CoD 4 set the standard really really high. I mean its in space.

[flunkie44]

Oddly numbered CoD games = avoid.

[Fox 6]

I found 3 amusing. Crushing people in motor bikes and clubbing people with a bazooka for an instant kill was funny.

[Pylon_Trooper]

I'm still annoyed the DS got CoD4 and the PSP ended up with zip.

Could we PLEASE see just ONE modern shooter, bar Syphon Filter, on the handheld?! PLEASE?!

[Angrist]

World at War is NOT CoD5. It seems like they're saving the number 5 for the direct sequel to CoD4. Which is pretty smart.

[Aladuf]

No, I think they're doing the same thing like COD4.. "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" and now, "Call of Duty 5: World at War"

[Ninja_KnightxX]

I like CoD4 and all, but I'd like to see more than 8 months go by before hype for the next one..

Someone a little trigger happy with the bloom lighting methinks :lolz:

[Renwood]

Screenshots have become very deceptive, for good and bad. I don't think Call of Duty 4 is a real looker in a still, but in motion, it obviously comes together. As this game uses the same engine, I expect the same here.

As far as the game is concerned, while I would love for a developer somewhere to explore a completely different war (Word War I, you fuckers), the reasons I have for enjoying CoD4's multiplayer do not stem from its "modern" aesthetic. I point a gun, I shoot. I get 10 points for it. The appeal (and annoyances) I have with CoD4 are all encompassed in the experience system. That's what I like it for.

I couldn't get beyond the first two or three acts in Single Player, because I found the game relied on throwing waves and waves of respawning enemies at me, overwhelming me with numbers rather than good AI. I don't dig that. So I doubt Single Player could be much worse for me. And if it is, its still negligible, because if I buy CoD: World at War, it will be to for the multiplayer.

Here's the first teaser trailer:

Now, since this is Pacific Theatre, I hope some Aussies are thrown into the mix.

[bobcat]

[Fox 6]

Going to go safe and rent first on this one.
