• unlock and personalize your killstreak loadout
• AC130 gunning run is one of the killstreak unlocks
• some weapons seem futuristic
• "heat syncing" missile tracks to AC130 but the plane drops flares to counter
• looks like there's a lot of arcade-style scoring
• particle systems and destructible environments look more advanced

A WORK IN PROGRESS. FEEL FREE TO ADD TO THE ARTICLE.
Shi No Numa (Japanese for Swamp of Death) is the zombies downloadable content map found in Map Pack 2 of Call of Duty: World at War. It is the third Nazi Zombies playlist map and is the first Imperial Zombies map. It was released June 11th. The map features new weapons, traps, characters, and Hellhound (deadly canine monsters that spawn out of a ball of lighting and rush toward you and your teammates).
10 point secret achievement tip: when you get out to the Comm Room, there will be a desk with a telephone on it. It will be making as sound as if it is off the hook. Press X to get the "Dead Air" secret achievement. The achievement can only be given to one person per game.
Where has this game been? THXers have been having a blast playing a separate cooperative mode in Call of Duty: World at War called Nazi Zombies.
While CoD's version of Zombies is fairly scripted and doesn't have the sophisticated "AI Director" found in Left 4 Dead, each game offers a slightly different experience based on the random events that happen; mainly the type of weapons that come out of the Mystery Box.
The game consists of up to two players locally or up to four players online working together battling against an unlimited number of waves of Nazi zombies. Players gain points by either killing the zombies or repairing boarded-up windows, which are used to remove blockages such as couches or doors inside the bunker. These points can be used to gain access to more powerful weapons than the starting handgun. Guns are bought from outlines on the walls or the Mystery Box, which gives weapons at random. Zombies continually break the boards on the windows or certain walls to gain entrance and to find and kill the players; when all players die, the game is over. Downed players can survive if another player revives them or will respawn at the end of a round with only a handgun. The game mode originally had to be unlocked upon completion of the campaign mode, but was later made available without this prerequisite.
Map Pack 2 was released on June 11th. The third map pack will be released in August 09.
For $150 you will be able to buy the Prestige Edition of Call of Duty: Modern Warefare 2. In addition to the game, it comes with "fully-functional, wearable, adjustable Night Vision Googles with individually numbered and engraved Collector's Stand. Custom-designed and painted goggles allow sight in absolute darkness up to 50 feet in black & white or night vision green."
The Prestige Edition comes with everything in the Hardened Edition $80. That includes:
* Call of Duty - the original classic game that started the successful franchise. For the first time on a console.
* Hardbound art book "Behind the Lines", deigned by artists at Infinity Ward, featuring the art of Modern Warfare 2
* Includes premium, special-edition Steelbook case with custom artwork by Infinity Ward
The game is set for release on Nov 10, 2009 for PC, PS3, and XBOX 360.

A glitch in the Xbox Marketplace allows you to download exclusive game content to your Xbox 360 console for free. Most of this content was previously only accessibly if you had a redeemable code that came with your pre-order from a store like Gamestop or if you purchased a limited edition version of the game.
I did not buy the Limited Edition of Gow2. I do have the gold-plated Lancer. I have confirmed in-game that this download technique works. I've got the gold lancer now.
