Call of Duty: Black Ops is setting records... What a surprise! (Don't get me wrong, I like the game, it's just a given that COD will sell the most ever)
Black Ops has made over $650 million dollars in the US and UK in the past several days that it has been out. The game was hyped to raise the bar on all shooters (it is trying..) and the game's multiplayer has always been renowned to be the best.
The game has just been given an update which is supposed to fix the matchmaking system which repeatedly kicks party members, it is supposed to tune small audio things and a few other things that aren't that important.
After this game selling a million-billion copies, I wouldn't be surprised if they started putting out statistics like, the distance of people jumping up and down is 29 times the distance to the moon.
Keep on playing folks! (hoorah?)

Engulfed or Enflamed
Well for the past couple days I've been pretty focused on the new Call of Duty. So far the game has lived up to my high expectations.. I just think it is getting so complex. There are challenges inside of challenges on a plane.
But now that I look upon this post for the second day (I wrote it yesterday). The game is epic. It grabs you and doesn't let go. There are 15 prestige levels which amounts to many years of replay time. The guns seem well balanced with each having it's own perks and downsides. The textures on the guns are kinda iffy, they either look really good or like little plastic replicas. The new perk system is very well balanced (no stopping power or juggernaut), and all together I have to say Treyarch did a good job. I have barely touched the multiplayer and I have only played an hour of singleplayer/zombies. This is just part 1, stay tuned for the rest!

Call of Duty: Black Cops
Well folks! The seventh installation of Call of duty comes out tonight at 12:00. This game looks to give Infinity Ward (all 7 people) a run for their money. Now this is quite scary for me since I've never formally written a review for a game.. But yes! I'm writing a review for Call of duty!
I've always been a fan of the series and this one looks better than ever. I'll see if it lives up to the hype. But now it is time for sleepy sleepy! See you all on the battlefield tomorrow!

Stealing the Sale: Sale of the Week
Grand theft Auto! GTA 1, 2, 3, Vice City and San Andreas are all on sale this week as a package on Steam. These games have drummed up so much controversy, whether it be getting a hooker to heal you by doing the nasty-nasty, then shooting her and taking your money... Or just stealing a car and running civilians over for fun. This game is the curse of all mothers of 11 year old children and it has been for years.
The whole package is just $7.49. 5 games for $7.49? That's almost 1 dollar for each game. Go forth and taste Theft, and grander and automatics! Here

New Free-to-play Battlefield game announced.. Play4Free!
Battlefield: Play4Free (such a creative name...) was announced this morning. This game will be developed by Easy games (the people who made Battlefield: Heroes). This free to play Battlefield game will use BF2 maps and supposedly play like it.. it's also not cartoony!
This game will have an experience system where players earn, then spend on a "massive arsenal" of weapons. Weapons can also be bought with real money (free-to-play games, I resent you!!).
All in all, a free to play Battlefield game that draws influences from Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 2 sounds promising. We shall see.
The game is due for release spring 2011, and if you can't wait that long there is a closed beta.. Head over to the website to sign up! http://battlefield.play4free.com/

BioShock: Indefinitely Infinite
Ah, yes. Bioshock. The name that combines life with shock, the kind of shock that puts shivers down your spine! These games are great, and they are about to get greater. Follow through my recap of the previous Bioshocks and discover... Columbia! (Wait... Didn't we already find that place?)
Calm Battles Are Battley Battles
Yes folks! As you can see by the title, a new Battlefield game is going to be announced this Friday. The developers Easy, who made Battlefield Heroes, the free-to-play Battlefield cartoon game, are in charge of this new one. Luckily it isn't Battlefield 3 (which I have high hopes for) and it isn't Battlefield Assault, which is a new name EA recently picked up. What game is it? We shall see.. Friday. Que Battlefield music! Doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo!
