Following Nvidia’s steps, Activision has released a new tech demo that showcases a next-generation character. This animated character is being rendered in real-time on current video card hardware, using standard bone animation. According to its description, the original high resolution data was acquired from Light Stage Facial Scanning and Performance Capture by USC Institute for Creative Technologies, then converted to a 70 bones rig, while preserving the high frequency detail in diffuse, normal and displacement composite maps.

A couple of minutes ago, Infinity Ward has revealed – via its official FB page – a new image of Captain Price. This new image is probably a teaser for the upcoming reveal of the next Call of Duty title, and we can safely assume that Captain Price will be featured in it. After all, there wouldn’t be any reason to share such a picture if that wasn’t a hint, right? Naturally, Infinity Ward has not revealed anything other than this image that was placed as a cover photo, so go ahead and enjoy it after the jump!

A new video – that looks like a teaser trailer of Modern Warfare 4 – has appeared on the Net a couple of minutes ago. Since this isn’t anything official and as nothing has been confirmed right now, you should definitely take it with a grain of salt. Still, it looked interesting so we decided to share it with you. This teaser presents Captain Price who seems to be in Mexico. GDC 2013 is underway and everyone is currently awaiting for the upcoming reveal of Battlefield 4. Therefore, this is either an intentional leak or a fake video that was created in order to take attention away from BF4. Activision declined to comment on the trailer, so this could be the real deal. That, or Activision is playing its cards right and wants to keep people guessing (at least for today). Enjoy! Continue reading Rumor: Is This The First Teaser For Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4?→

Remember the teaser website of Modern Warfare 4? Well, it appears that it was valid as a new poster has appeared (kudos to Insomnia’s Psycho_Warhead for spotting it) today, hinting at an incoming announcement/reveal on March 21st. Not only that, but it seems that four studios are working on it: Infinity Ward, Raven Software, Sledgehammer Games and Neversoft. Naturally, the game will be published by Activision. The poster also indicates that Activision will reveal more during PAX East (or GDC), otherwise there wouldn’t be a poster for just the fan-made movie reveal.

You know what? It’s really ironic when publishers decide not to comment on a question, when distributors have shared false information, and when you get a proper answer from a pirated group with its latest actions. Despite the claims of Activision’s Greek distributor, IGE, of the PC version getting cancelled, Activision has released this title on the PC, and has already been leaked – though in some regions the game may be already available – by a specific pirated scene group.

Ah, the Internet. You can find anything there, from glorious leaks to awkward troll attempts. One such attempt was a teaser site that got spotted today, supposedly revealing that a teaser trailer for Modern Warfare 4 would go live on March 21st. This website was hosted in Russian name servers and Infinity Ward’s is most probably headquartered in Russia. Not only that, but the domain registration information from here says it’s registered to Infinity Ward.
