It should be modern day and they should do a 'somehow Palpatine has returned ' for Saddam. Also he should be playable in multi-player.

Also like, obviously this is all military propaganda but barely euphemistically calling something Call of Duty: War Crimes is really on the nose and doing it 6 times had made it pretty obvious thst normal people have no idea what Black Ops refers to IRL. They think top tier operator missions not Honduran death squads funded by drug money cause a black op can't be on an official budget and needs operating capital from somewhere.

It’s been some years since I’ve played black ops, but considering they they are very mainstream I feel like they have above average criticisms of the US role in geopolitics compared to most militaristic media (which isn’t really something significant, but it always surprised me). I’m curious if that’s still the case.
