Thank ABC's Lost for the recent craze of time travel-based storylines seeping into pop culture. With Call of Duty Black: Ops, we could have yet another time traveling adventure. Activision is being very cagey about confirming the exact dates that Black Ops takes place, thus adding fuel to our time traveling fire. The latest battles to be depicted by the hallowed series are centered on the Cold War and Vietnam eras. At least, we think they are. The fact of the matter is that we really have no idea the exact years that Call of Duty: Black Ops spans, and that's one of the many reasons why this latest edition has our complete attention.

Again: time travel, anyone? Regardless of what the plot twist finally turns out to be, rest assured that it will be surrounded by the same classic Call of Duty gameplay. I saw two levels of Black Ops at a recent Activision press event in Los Angeles and can confirm that both guns and blood are still firmly intact and will be seen often.
