Eaten By A Grue Achievement/Trophy

MadPlanet recently showed off some clever advertising for Call of Duty: Black Ops, but the cold war-era shooter has a few other gems for us as well. You can actually play Zork from within the game! And if you're a trophy whore like me, you will be rewarded for your retro-gaming efforts.

What the heck? Nice nod to the all-powerful classic. I wonder if you can play the entire game. And if so if you get another trophy for completing it.

I'm not sure on either question but I just played Zork for about 15minutes before quitting. It looks like the whole game might be there.

Did you try "DOA"? I read that opens up a Smash TV-esque arcade minigame.

I haven't heard of that. I 'll give it a go next time I log in on the game.

Ok, I checked out the Dead Ops arcade game. It is very Smash TV.

I give props to Treyarch for provided an FPS with so many modes:
1. single player campain
2. multiplayer
3. zombies
4. arcade game
5. text adventure

I unlocked another interesting version of zombie mode when I completed the campaign: you can play zombie mode as JFK, Nixon, Fidel Castro and former JFK/LBJ Sec. of Defense Robert McNamara.

those are nice little additions to put it a bit apart from being just another generic MW type shooter.
