We see Menendez posting a Website/YouTube video in [[TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture 2021]] with the black-and-white video layout that [=YouTube=] wouldn't release until a few days after the game released, but the [=YouTube=] video still has a top comments feature. Of course, with the rate at which [=YouTube=] changes its layouts, it's ''extremely'' unlikely that [=YouTube=] will look the same in 2021, and as of 2020, it certainly doesn't, though many concepts present at the time of the game's release are still in effect.

* TheOtherDarrin: Hudson is voiced by Creator/MichaelKeaton instead of Ed Harris. It's very noticeable as the two sound nothing like each other. In ''Declassified'' Hudson is at least voiced by a voice actor trying to pull off a reasonable Ed Harris impersonation.

** Soldiers in this game are seen using large, wrist-mounted computers to lob grenades, scale buildings, hack things and do basically anything. The smartwatches of the real world run along similar lines but are much smaller (and unable to lob grenades, regrettably). Presumably the ones in-game have to be bulked up for military use, but that doesn't necessarily explain why the cast insist on using bulky arm computers in non-combat areas.

** Creator/RobertPicardo once again [[Film/TheHowling dies by getting shot in the neck]].
* CelebrityVoiceActor:

** In the Latin American dub, Raul Menendez is voiced by Mexican actor and director Julio Bracho.
** [[spoiler: Creator/JimmyKimmel]] voices himself in the game's GoldenEnding.
** Hudson is voiced by Creator/MichaelKeaton; see TheOtherDarrin below.
* CreatorKiller: The main games, in true ''Call of Duty'' fashion, were astoundingly successful. However, the UsefulNotes/PlayStationVita-based GaidenGame, ''COD: Black Ops Declassified'', was so bad that it pushed its developer out of console/handheld game development completely.
* TheDanza: Michael Rooker as Mike Harper.
* FakeNationality: Nicaraguan Raul Menendez is voiced by Puerto Rican Kamar de los Reyes.
* TheOtherDarrin: Hudson is voiced by Creator/MichaelKeaton instead of Ed Harris. It's very noticeable as the two sound nothing like each other. In ''Declassified'' Hudson is at least voiced by a voice actor trying to pull off a reasonable Ed Harris impersonation.

** [[http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/10/12/black-ops-3-director-talks-call-of-dutys-first-female-protagonist Apparently]] there were plans in place to include a playable female character in the game, with the implication being that the player could choose to go through the game as the son ''or daughter'' of Alex Mason. The idea was ultimately scrapped though due to the need for double voice and mocap performance (which, to be fair, would be extensive for the game's main character). Treyarch later went through with the concept in ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyBlackOpsIII''.
