Call of Duty 4 revealed

First trailer air-lifted in.

Activision has unveiled the first trailer for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

It's playing over on Eurogamer TV now, and gives us a good idea of what to expect from the contemporary war game. Gone are the familiar and antiquated weapons of World War II, replaced by laser-sights, choppers and high-tech military muscle.

Modern Warfare displays more than a passing resemblance to the Battlefield games, with player-controlled vehicles and extensive multiplayer options.

Unfortunately little more was divulged, and Activision was unvailable to tell us which platforms the game will be appearing on and when it's due out. However, we expect "PC, PS3 and Xbox 360" is a fairly safe bet.

Head over to the freshly launched "Charlie Oscar Delta" website for more information.
