Trivia

In the scene where you get on the elevator in Vorkuta, if you look at Reznov's left hand he is missing his index finger. This is because he lost it in Call of Duty: World at War.

Goofs

In almost all maps only Russia and Kazakhstan are added territory of the Soviet Union. In real Soviet territory includes also 14 other republics witch are "independent" in the maps. Also most of the maps show current political borders instead Cold war era borders.

The Vorkuta uprising actually happened in early 1950s rather than 1963.

Several Jeeps shown in the game, especially in the "Nuketown" multi-player map, are of the current "JK" body style, released in 2007. In the 1960s, most military Jeeps were still the Willys manufactured "Flatfender" style.

Quotes

Victor Reznov: [Reznov speaking to Mason in Vorkuta prison] My father was a musician in Stalingrad. During the German occupation, the sound of his violin filled the air with magnificent music - Korsakov, Stasov - many of great nationalist composers. To my countrymen, it was a symbol of hope. To the Germans, it was a symbol of defiance. Even now, his music still haunts me. The Nazis slit his throat while he slept. Collaborating with a Nazi is a betrayal, a betrayal against of all Mother Russia. Dragovich and Kravchenko were not troubled by such matters. They looked only to advance towards their own interests and agendas...

Victor Reznov: Dragovich, Kravchenko, Steiner... these 'men' must die.

Alex Mason: [Mason just hopped on a train from a truck, while Reznov is still in the truck as the two are escaping the Vorkuta labor camp] Step eight, Reznov: Freedom!

Will this game include Nazi Zombies?

Q

What are the differences between the censored Australian/German Version and the Original Version?

A

Black Ops is brutal. Heads are being chopped off, sleeping hostiles stabbed violently, humans take their last breath in anguish due to toxic gas and soldiers who surrendered can be executed without any repercussions. The censorings almost seems ludicrous, considering all the violent and vicious things that remained unchanged. Nevertheless, things were censored for some reason. An entire sequence has been removed, splatter effects have been censored. Even the Rolling Stones song Sympathy for the Devil has been removed. Except for the missing song, the alterations are standard procedure. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
