Alright, despite the fact that E3 2012 isn’t really over yet (at least, I don’t think it is), I’m going to go ahead and write this wrap-up article as the main performances and press conferences are already done with. With a star-studded line-up featuring the regulars such as Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo as well as developers EA and Ubisoft, people were expecting an amazing E3. Feel free to read further to see what I thought of this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo. (more…)

Hacker Asked to Crack COD Creator’s E-mails
Posted in Articles, Video Games, tagged Activision, call of duty, CoD, ea, hacker on May 25, 2012| Leave a Comment »
So, in a rather strange twist of reality, a hacker was apparently recently asked to break into the e-mail accounts of not only the Call of Duty creator’s e-mails, but most of Infinity Ward in a suit against the company by Activision. The hacker, once denied assistance by Microsoft, went to more shady business dealings to get the job done. The details are still hazy, but apparently Activision must want to win this case something awful if they resorted to hiring a hacker to steal e-mails. Read the full story in the article sourced below and let us know what you think of this entire debacle.

Morning Banana Oatmeal: MW3 Getting Face Off Game Type

Finally thirteen year olds (and those with the mentality of thirteen year olds) can rejoice, as the latest game in the Call of Duty series is set to receive a Face Off game mode, in which players can take one another on in sets of 1v1 or 2v2 games. I’m not sure how big of a hit this is, but with the eSports community really picking up and Game Battles becoming a big part of FPS style games, this game mode is sure to see a lot of play time, especially after the angry children asking for 1v1’s when they get agitated to any degree get to play. I don’t know if I will be picking up the latest edition of Call of Duty, or CoD for short, but I’m sure it will be peppered with the same community as have plagued the matches for a long time now. Chances are that I won’t get a chance to pick it up, but hopefully those of you who do will be able to enjoy the games much more so than I have. I think it’s a center for high blood pressure and broken televisions, but that’s just my opinion. Feel free to discuss this latest tidbit of news in the comments, I’d actually like to see what the rest of you think. Thanks!

Being a video game blog along with movies and television, I’m going to try and catch up with the relative lack of posts the video game category currently has. And today I’m going to go through the list of games that I’m buying brand spanking new [used games are a different issue to be discussed in a different time]. 2012 had quite the roster of highly anticipated games, and I can’t wait to get my hands on the following 5. Ordered based on release date.
