Yes, Riley Call of Duty Dog is in one of them. What’s more, one is entitled “Federation Day Rappel,” (below) a curious little tease of the continuity surrounding the game’s campaign mode.

You Can Bark Orders to Call of Duty‘s Happy Scrappy Hero Pup

That Advanced AI In Call of Duty: Ghosts Sure Looks Dated

And as SUPERMARIOGALAXY13 highlights here, fish doing that is not exactly a new innovation—or hell, even an exciting one. It’s nearly 20 years old! I’m…

Next-Gen Call Of Duty, Last-Last-Gen Engine
