Jason Rosete has informed us about a new live action web-series, based on the Zombies mode of Activision’s latest Call of Duty title, Black Ops 2. According to its description, three agents find themselves on a seemingly abandoned island. Equipped with only their skills and an unexpected ally, they hope to survive the limitless horde of zombies. You can view its freshly released trailer below. The web-series will kick off on January 15, 2013. Enjoy! Continue reading Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Zombies Gets A Fan-Made Live Action Web-Series – Trailer Released→
Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2 is finally here with us, so it’s time to see how Treyarch’s title performs on the PC platform. Treyarch decided to scrap the DX9 in favor of a brand new DX11 renderer that is said to be better optimized than the previous one. And it seems that the company was partially right. Unfortunately though, Black Ops 2 is still a CPU-bound game and does not take advantage of more than two CPU cores. This is an issue that has been present since Modern Warfare 2, and although Black Ops 2 is not as CPU-bound as the first Black Ops game (or World at War), it still needs a high clocked CPU in order to be enjoyed.

Okay, this is awesome. Black Ops 2 has been released and a number of PC owners are reporting an unexpected disc read error with the second DVD disc of Treyarch’s FPS title. It appears that some discs have been labeled as Mass Effect 2 discs, which sounds really weird. At first, we thought this was a bad joke as it’s well known that you can use two DVD-drives to fool people. However, we’ve been getting one hell of reports (on both Activision‘s and Steam‘s forums) about this exact thing, meaning that there might be something wrong with the retail PC version of Black Ops 2. Continue reading Hilarious – PC owners of Black Ops 2 are getting a Mass Effect 2 disc read error→
Blizzard has revealed – via Battle.net – that the highly anticipated sequel/expansion to StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty will be released on March 12th, 2013. Not only that, but Blizzard has updated the game’s FAQ page, revealing the contents of the Digital Deluxe Version that will be unleased in 2013. Continue reading StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Release Date Revealed [UPDATE]→
Blizzard has confirmed – during an Activision earning call – that Diablo III will get a new expansion pack. Although there is no ETA yet, Blizzard has already plans for the expansion and wants to polish it before releasing it. Classic Blizzard. In addition, the company has confirmed that StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm will hit stores in early 2013. Continue reading Diablo III Expansion Confirmed, StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Dated→
Remember Treyarch’s promises about an unlocked FOV for Black Ops 2 and unlimited FPS? Well, it seems that won’t be the case as Treyarch’s PC Community Manager has just revealed that the max FOV will be 80 and there won’t be any option to further raise it. According to the CM, Treyarch experienced technical issues and that’s why they could not offer a higher FOV. Guess the move to the DX11 renderer was not as ideal as they were hoping to, right? It’s also ironic that Treyarch talks about technical limitations, as it’s proven that a FOV change can be easily achieved even by third-party, fan made tools.

Black Ops 2 fans, we’ve got some bad and some good news for you today. The good news is that the PC version of the game has not been leaked, meaning that Activision won’t be able to blame piracy for lower than expected PC sales. The bad news is that the X360 version has been leaked, one week before release, meaning that Internet will get flooded with spoilers, screenshots, leaked footages and opinions about Treyarch’s title before its official launch. Continue reading Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 – X360 Version Leaked One Week Before Release→
Activision and LG have released a new trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 that showcases how shocked gamers will actually be with the 3D version of Black Ops 2. As with all 3D commercials, they exagerate in order to impress everyone (and especially teenagers who have not experienced 3D before). On the other hand, though, it will be interesting to see whether consoles will be able to handle this title in 3D and whether there will be any noticeable slowdowns. It will also be interesting to see how the new DX11 renderer will handle 3D on the PC. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is planned for a November 12th release on PC, X360 and PS3. Enjoy!

Well, this was to be expected. It’s well known that Treyarch and Infinity Ward shared (and will continue sharing) the Call of Duty franchise year on year, and since Black Ops 2 is almost upon us, one can only guess what Infinity Ward has been up to this whole time. Yeap, the company is obviously working on the sequel to Modern Warfare 3, something that was confirmed by the voice-actor of Captain Price. Shocking, right? Continue reading Infinity Ward is developing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 according to Captain Price voice-actor [UPDATE]→
