Treyarch and Activision Blizzard just released the world premiere trailer for ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops’.
The trailer is just amazing and with news that dedicated servers for PC are going to be part of the game makes it even more amazing. I need to start making a schedule of how to spend my time playing all these FPS shooters. Call of Duty: Black Ops will be available worldwide on November 9 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, and PC.
And i'm pretty sure this ones gonna be awesome as Modern Warfare 2.
Time to cross a few more names off of the Modern Warfare 2 credits as the departures continue from Activision studio Infinity Ward. [Updated with one more name]
Senior designers Mohammad Alavi and Chad Grenier (update: and Brent McLeod) are out, along with programmer Chris Lambert and designer Jason McCord.
That brings the list of departures from Infinity Ward up to at least 17 since the start of the ongoing Modern Warfare drama. This saga became public in March when IW heads Jason West and Vince Zampella were fired by parent company Activision due to alleged wrong-doing including acts of "insubordination."
There is no word yet about where the latest freshly ex-Infinity Ward game makers will go.
Departures are commonplace among all development tea,s, but the rash of exits from Infinity Ward does appear to present a challenge for the studio behind Modern Warfare, a studio Activision has been determined to keep viable given the commercial and critical reception of its Modern Warfare and Call of Duty work.
Valve release the first official ‘Left 4 Dead 2: The Passing’ DLC promo video, starring good old Francis and new girl on the block Rochelle.
Hopefully, we will see more of these funny short videos of the old ‘Left 4 Dead’ gang meeting with the new ‘Left 4 Dead 2′ gang.
In "The Passing," players will meet up with the original Left 4 Dead's survivors, Francis, Bill, Zoey and Louis, who will appear as non-playable characters. Valve's Chet Faliszek told Kotaku that Left 4 Dead 2's survivors will rendezvous with the original quartet later on in the campaign, and that they will aid Coach, Nick, Ellis and Rochelle in finishing the third map in the campaign.
"The Passing" will also add one new uncommon common infected type, which Valve is calling the Fallen Survivor. These new zombies, humans who erroneously believed themselves to be immune to the infection, will sometimes drop items when killed, like health kits or ammo.
That new add-on will offer an opportunity to see more of the original cast's character traits, Faliszek said, storylines that will likely be explored in the Left 4 Dead digital comic book that will arrive after "The Passing." That comic will be illustrated by Powers artist Michael Avon Oeming.
Then, about a "month or so" after that, Valve plans to release an add-on for the first Left 4 Dead, an episode that will tell the story of the original survivors' journey to "The Passing." That unnamed Left 4 Dead add-on will only be playable on the original game, not in the sequel.
Valve says it plans to release "The Passing" on Xbox 360 and PC in "late March" with more details on the Left 4 Dead downloadable content coming soon.
It has been almost seven years from now when Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne was released. It became an outstanding hit among the gamers and eared it self a game rating of 9.4
People, the excitement is not yet over because Rockstar Vancouver are developing Max Payne 3. The game was originally scheduled for release in late 2009. However, it was pushed back to 2010 alongside several other Take Two Interactive franchises in order to "benefit from having more development time." The game is now expected to be released on November 30th this year.
Both DOTA (Defense Of The Ancients) and WOW (World of Warcraft ) are played online . But there is a difference between the two.
DotA is a custom scenario for Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. The two teams' ancients are heavily guarded structures at opposing corners of the map. Players use powerful units known as heroes, and are assisted by allied heroes and AI-controlled fighters called "creeps". As in role-playing games, players level up their hero and use gold to buy equipment during the mission.
Defense of the Ancients pits two teams of players against each other: the Sentinel and the Scourge. Players on the Sentinel team are based at the southwest corner of the map, and those on the Scourge team are based at the northeast corner. Each base is defended by towers and waves of units which guard the main paths leading to their base. In the center of each base is the "Ancient", a building that must be destroyed to win the game.
Defense of the Ancients allows up to ten players in a five versus five format and an additional two slots for referees or observers, often with an equal number of players on each side.
Killing computer-controlled units earns the player experience points; when enough experience is accumulated, the player gains a level. Leveling up improves the hero's toughness and the damage it can inflict, and allows players to upgrade their spells or skills. In addition to accumulating experience, players also manage a single resource: gold. The typical resource gathering of Warcraft III is replaced by a combat-oriented money system; in addition to a small periodic income, heroes earn gold by killing hostile units, base structures, and enemy heroes. Using gold, players buy items to strengthen their hero and gain abilities. Certain items can be combined with recipes to create more powerful items. Buying items that suit one's hero is an important tactical element of the scenario.
But WOW is more like Age of Empires. It is a better game as you have a number of options for playing it. It is not a real time strategy game so you have time to explore the landscapes, perform the quests, build upon your skills and even interact with other players.
To Play DOTA you should create an account in a gaming network like Garena.
