If you still have a hard time understanding how mainstream video games have become, then I invite you to take a look at the Call of Duty Black Ops Jeep. [Chrysler](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chrysler) has partnered with [Activision](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corsair) to release a special-edition 2011 Jeep [Wrangler](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeep-wrangler-magneto-20) to coincide with the release of Black Ops on November 9th.

The Call of Duty Black Ops Jeep is a monumental moment for the video game industry. Never before have video games been marketed with tie-ins like this, and I believe that the CoD Jeep is only the beginning. Check out the specs for the Jeep below.
