Modern Warfare 3 !!!!

A third game in the Modern Warfare series is coming this year, according to a new report from the Los Angeles Times.

Citing unnamed sources, the LA Times says Activision has recruited Sledgehammer Games, the studio currently working on another unannounced Call of Duty title, and Raven Software (Singularity) to help finish development of Modern Warfare 3 for release this November.

The report states both Sledgehammer and Infinity Ward are equally completing the single-player portion of the game, while Raven is working on its online multiplayer features.

Due to the developer collaboration, sources said the Call of Duty spin-off project in development at Sledgehammer, rumored to be set in the future, has now been put on hold.

Since Infinity Ward executives Jason West and Vince Zampella were fired from the studio in March, more than 35 employees have left the studio. Activision said recently it has received over 5,000 applicants to fill the vacancies.

The publisher has not publicly announced what Call of Duty title would be released this year, but did confirm a new game would be arriving in the back half of 2011.

When asked about the report, an Activision representative told IGN, "There's been much speculation recently. We look forward to releasing details for the next Call of Duty in the near future."

BioShock: Infinite

Welcome to the city of Columbia. Floating amongst the clouds, cruising far above sea level, this is a place unlike any you've ever seen. Please enjoy your voyage...

The third game in the popular Bioshock series, BioShock: Infinite breaks away from the underwater setting of the first two games to take players into a floating city held aloft by dirigibles. The game is set in 1912. You play as Booker DeWitt, a disgraced former private detective who's picked up a new case. Your goal is to find Elizabeth, a young woman who's gone missing and return her unharmed. The only problem is that she's being kept on this flying city. Columbia was once a symbol of America's success as a nation, floating around the world as a traveling World's Fair, a marvel of human innovation. But strange things have happened since Columbia's unveiling in 1900, and now the city has disappeared into the clouds. DeWitt knows how to find it, but over the years stories have been told about Columbia having unlawful heavy armament and deranged citizenry. Do not expect this to be a pleasure cruise.

 The single player was no doubt a fun ride. The graphics were classic THQ as well as the movement of the characters. Though it could be clunky at times THQ has done their homework when it comes to this type of fps. The graphics were good. The storyline is great but a bit slow at times. There is no free roaming in this campaign. You must follow your other characters and often have to wait for them to do something to keep the game moving. At times it seems as though the game may be stuck but with patients your comrades will move and open the gate to the next objective. The story line was rather short as well. I wonder when a company is going to develop a fps game which keeps you busy and active for more than 5-6 hours?

I figured since the single player was so short. They must have put some extra attention into the multiplayer. I was right. From the beginning of rank one you notice a slight gain in speed and agility added to your character. Things flow rather nicely into the battlefield modes. You are quickly returned to the game after dying and are ready to roll in seconds with whatever loadout you desire. The Battlepoints System is not only a fun twist to the combat fps ranks but its also a fresh idea that was badly needed in the field of fps's. One thing worth mentioning is the fact these dedicated servers are working great. I played for hours online and never once did the game jump, glitch, or freeze up....Bravo Homefront! One thing I do not want to do is compare this game to other recently popular fps games on the market which have dominated the field. THQ has something original and fresh going on here and if your a fps fan you should check it out.

You did a great job THQ. I must say I had my doubts at first but you guys really did your homework on sound, graphics and storyline. Sure, I would have loved to see a lot more destruction in the game but maybe that's something that could be worked on in the next game. I'm sure there will be one. I got a feeling folks are really going to enjoy your game. Thanks for the good times THQ. I hope you stay on the high road and keep kicking out these fantastic games.
