Monstrous Steam deal this weekend: Civilization IV and all its expansions for $10
Posted on May 7, 2010 | No CommentsQuick note, friends. One of the better Steam weekend deals in recent memory is live right now. It’s Civilization IV and all of its expansion packs for $10. That’s pretty much ridiculous any way you look at it. (Oh, and Modern Warfare 2 multi-player is free this weekend, if you’re into “that.”) -
Former Infinity Ward dudes form new studio for EA
Posted on April 12, 2010 | No CommentsYou'll recall that the two bigwigs at Infinity Ward, Jason West and Vince Zampella, left the studio a few months back under, well, insane circumstances. It's basically he said, she said, only involving lawsuits, hired goons, and Activision, the least popular video game publisher according to a recent GameFaqs poll. Yes, I just cited a GameFaqs poll. West and Zampella didn't like the way Activision were treating them, and Activision alleges that the two were looking to leave Infinity Ward and perhaps start up a new studio under the watchful eye (and with the gigantic bank account) of EA. Funnily enough, West and Zampella have done just that, forming a new development studio called Respawn Entertainment. Wonder how Dice, makers of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, feels about all of this?

Infinity Ward defending the cost of MW2’s DLC
Posted on March 25, 2010 | No Comments
To say we were a tad flabbergasted that Modern Warfare 2's 5 map pack DLC costs $15 is about right. We weren't exactly outraged. It's just a video game after all and really doesn't matter that much. But $15 is a bit much for five maps with two of the recycled from previous Call of Duty games. Infinity Ward's Creative Strategist Rob Bowling disagrees. He calls it an investment. Well, Creative Strategist is just code for Public Relations so he kind of has to say that.

Those drones you use in Modern Warfare 2? They could be illegal in real life.
Posted on March 24, 2010 | No CommentsYou know all those drones you kids use to rain grim death upon your unfortunate friends in Modern Warfare 2? Well, according to an American University law professor's Congressional testimony, they may be illegal under international law. Of course, they could be totally fine, too, it's just that nobody really knows for sure. That's probably not what the U.S. military wants to hear, given how much it has spent, and will spend, on drones.

Video: Soldier v. gamer in Modern Warfare 2 showdown
Posted on March 24, 2010 | No CommentsThere’s no doubting it anymore: British TV is miles ahead of American TV. A show over there called, quite descriptively, “The Gadget Show,” pit a proper solider against the Xbox 360 controller-wielding host in a little Modern Warfare 2 showdown. I insist that you watch it. -

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 soars past $1 billion in retail sales
Posted on January 13, 2010 | No Comments
Remember back a couple months? The biggest news on Earth was the Infinity Ward and Activision Blizzard screwed up MW2 and the game was going to fall into a bucket of fail. There were boycotts, petitions, and general chaos concerning the shooter. Then it launched. Then people started playing it in droves. Then people shut-up and within two months the title surpassed $1,000,000,000 in retail sales.

Let’s feign surprise: Modern Warfare 2 was the most pirated game of 2009
Posted on December 28, 2009 | No Comments<img src="http://www.crunchgear.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/umabanana.jpg"Spore was the most pirated game of 2008, but that needs to be viewed through the lens of EA wrapping the legitimate, retail copy of the game with all sorts of DRM nonsense that made it unplayable under certain situations. You know, like putting the disc in your drive and expecting it to work. It was easier to pirate it than play the copy you bought at the store. Insane, yes. Modern Warfare 2 was the most pirated game of 2009, also known as "this year," primarily because it was backed by a zillion dollar marketing campaign. That, and people like shooting at each other, virtually. -
Urdu, Arabic, whatever: It’s all the same to Infinity Ward in Modern Warfare 2
Posted on December 28, 2009 | No CommentsYou would have been foolish to assume that Modern Warfare 2 would treat foreign cultures with any sort of reverence. First there was the rubbish accents in the Rio de Janeiro level(s). Then there was "No Russian," which, well you know what happened there. Now there's this: there's Arabic all over the Karachi multi-player level. Why is this an issue? Oh, only that Arabic isn't spoken in Pakistan (Karachi is Pakistan's largest city).
