I love this ad for Call of Duty – and 1.3m views in four days can’t be wrong.
It’s the work of TBWA LA.

Its interesting how video games are becoming more and more Hollywood and how it brings the nerd out in the most un-nerdy people!

Whichever way you look at…it works. COD Black Ops is already raining down in this house, i love the ad ….. but the kids were so onto it they didn’t even need to see the ad. This was a word of mouth referral if ever there was one.

@Sue.. that may be true for kids Sue.. but us older gamers (now in the majority and with oodles of cash to spend on games)… don’t get nearly as much WOM as the kids do.. and the ad is clearly aimed at MEEEEE.. :))))
