Sorry, not Blops, CoD4. And it's understandable that they used those weapons because people would have seen them in CS:S and would instantly recognise them. If they where trying to simulate real war, they would have put the P90, Deagle, AUG, UMP.45 etc in there because none of the military forces involved in CoD even use those guns. So they are just trying to reach out to the people who played CS (and that's a lot of people) and give them the guns that they want. If it where trying to simulate war, there'd just be guns like the M4, AK-47 and M16. Also, the entire Create-A-Class system is pretty silimar to the "buy" system in CS, if you think about it. The layout is similar, and you choose the weapons you want to use, but the better weapons have to be earned (in CoD it's by ranking up, in CS it's by gaining money, both involve being a good player) and you get different types of grenades and stuff. Pretty much every modern FPS has been influenced by CS in some way, because it was so popular and pretty much defined the FPS genre before CoD4.
