We have a full-on tradition on our hands. Now that the latest Call of Duty game has released, it's only fitting that a ridiculous knife trick-shot video surface on the world wide internet. And this one has set the bar so high, we're not even sure it's part of Earth's atmosphere any more.

@MercShame I won't say fluke, other than it going through the chopper, but I saw better in black ops for sure.

Would've been even better if somehow that knife broke the rotor, bringing the aircraft down on like 4 guys.

@dfbhfg You know, you really had me going there. I was almost sure at that second link that this wasn't spam, but after the third one, you've made me a little bit suspicious...

Not a fan of CoD, but this shows that every MP game should have some sort of theater mode.
I got a HD cap card and I'm glad, you never know when something hilarious is gonna happen.

I like how the knife keeps spinning and bouncing up and down on the wing. It's got heart, soul, and determination. That is what makes a good knife. Heart. Soul. And determination.

1) Is the melee knife still the strongest weapon in the game?
2) Joystiq, your app's comment system hasn't posted the comments I write as of the last week.

is this entire genre of vid made up of knives tossed at random and just showing the one in 300 that hit someone?

It amazes me how many cod haters are out there. It's of course a lucky shot, but I'd post a video too if I did it xD

You know, for a series that's praised for it's "realistic" take on war, the gameplay sure is arcadey, kind of like Halo.

I'm fairly certain you are mistaken. Or it's "Make a Funny Time" and nobody told me. Nonetheless, as a CoD fanboy, even I know that anybody who says this game (or any of the recent ones) are realistic are bat-shit stupid. Battlefield is where the realism(ish) is.
