The multiplayer reveal event from last night for Call of Duty: Black Ops has come and gone. In its massive wake is a ton of details and specifics for the game that might have gotten lost in the Twitter storm last night.


Fortunately, we took the time to compile a huge number of details from the event as provided to us by [MyIS]Crrrazzzy from TGN, who was in attendance, and the other journalists and event goers who shared their information through Twitter.

The specifics are broken down by category, including a look at customization, PC specific details, weapons, perks, theater mode, and much more.

Treyarch says they are determined to stop those who cheat, boost, and stat pad in Call of Duty: Black Ops. NowGamer has learned from Treyarch's Dan Bunting that anti-cheating measures will be the "most stringent" that the series has ever seen.

"We have a lot of anti-cheating, anti-boosting stuff going on behind the scenes, so we are monitoring that," Bunting assured us. "We're going to have a very heavy hand in the online security of our game."

"We're taking it very seriously. We had an engineer dedicated pretty much from the storat of the project to it."

Cheaters won't be able to hack their hardware to get around this either claims Bunting, "If people hack their hardware, we've got the ability to detect that and report them to Sony or Microsoft."

Hopefully this cuts down on a lot of the crap legitimate gamers have been having issue with in Modern Warfare 2 with respect to hacked servers, low gravity, rapid fire RPG's, and more.

From Kotaku.com:

Call of Duty developers Treyarch, a studio that made its name developing World War Two games, is done with World War Two. Phew.

Having developed first Call of Duty 3 and then Call of Duty: World at War, the team behind the upcoming Black Ops has all but ruled out a return to the 20th century's most important conflict, Treyarch's Josh Olin telling SPOnG "For us, I don't think we would go back because we've done a lot of World War II."

"I'm not saying that the genre's done. It would be important that, if there ever were to be another game set in the World War II era, it would have to be something that's fresh and new. You still have to by (sic) that code and do something players haven't seen before."
