Call of Duty: Vietnam

From the internets... I'm guessing its based on the COD4 platform.

----------------------------------------------------------

A source for Computer and Videogames has confirmed that the seventh game in the Call of Duty series of games will be coming this November to the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 and will be set in Vietnam War during the late 1960s.

Unlike World War II and modern settings, the Vietnam War setting has not been a particular successful setting for games whether it be because of the political and cultural distaste for the war or because the games weren't particularly well made to begin with. The Call of Duty series has not been one to flinch away from controversy though whether it be the violence in World at War or the infamous "No Russian" level from Modern Warfare 2. So maybe drawing inspiration from the movies Platoon and Apocalypse Now will be fitting for this game in the Call of Duty series.


Treyarch, who also developed Call of Duty 3 and Call of Duty: World at War, says it is on track for a November release and Activision surely feels confident after Modern Warfare 2's domination of the Holiday 2009 sales charts and World at War still among the most played games on Xbox Live. World at War provided Treyarch with experience in developing jungle environments for gamers to play in so it should be interesting to see how they can improve on it for Call of Duty: Vietnam.
