What's New? -Well, first and foremost, we can't wait for the next Call of Duty game, but wait, which one will it be. We have news about Call of Duty 7, as we found information on David Kim's LinkedIn profile (since removed). Pardon me while I go write a flow chart to help me figure this out. Also look for the trailer we discussed here.
-In addition, Duke Nukem Forever, the long awaited sequel to the Duke Nukem games, is officially canceled. Developer 3D Realms is officially closed. Tune in next week for news about the lawsuit between Publisher Take-Two and 3D Realms.
-Furthermore, a Blizzard post in the Battle.net forums indicates that the new MMO they will be publishing eventually consists of new IP. The first new IP from Blizzard in over 10 years, which is depressing because we won't see World of Lost Vikings, Blizzard's new Minimally Multiplayer Online Game and we also won't see, at least right now, World of Starcraft.
-In more Blizzard news, Greg Canessa, VP of video game platforms at Peggle house PopCap, has left the company to join World of Warcraft developer Blizzard Entertainment, PopCap has confirmed to Gamasutra. What will this bring to WoW? Perhaps they are going to make Battle.net into a casual MMO that is full of rooms where you get to play other Blizzard IPs. Also don't forget to set your Beta preferneces on your Battle.net account.
-In the DLC zone, Warhammer Online: Land of the Dead expansion dungeon that introduces the Tomb Kings to the world. The remaining few players rejoice. Also, Gears of War 2 map compendium, for 1400 MS points. This also includes the cut stealth section of the game, "Road to Ruin".
-Halo Wars gets DLC featuring new modes entitled Capture the Flag, Tug of War, and Reinforcements Mode. Finally, Happy Birthday to WiiWare.
-Keep an eye out for Thief 4 news as the game has been announced.
-Take a look at the trailer for Gamer, the movie voted most likely to make people hate gamers even more.
