LOL. Pushing games into next gen after offering preorders isn't unprecedented. Remember Twilight Princess? Ugh.

Yes. They dont last that long on 360... probably as long as an EMP. If you get in the water on maps like raid or hijacked they wont bother you. lol Orbital VSAT is awesome. I think I might use it because I forgot how many assists you get for it when teammates get kills.

Gamestop will go the way of Blockbuster this coming generation or next. Fully downloadable library stored on consoles like Steam will be the wave of the future. The last Blockbuster we had in town is having their closing sell off event until April.. after that, there will not be a single Blockbuster in my city.

One time i was playing on hijacked, and the enemy team got 2 care package k9 units and turned the entire tide of the match That was some BS. The highest streak i get most frequently is Orbital VSAT.

Bungie is no longer a 1st party developer for MS. They left at the cost of losing all property rights to Halo. This was a good move for them. Halo could never bring in the big bucks like COD due to its exclusivity. However, publishing under Activison, I am wondering if this is a way for Activision to respond to the secret project Respawn Entertainment has been working on for EA. If you don't know the history, Respawn Entertainment was founded by the two guys that made COD what it is today, they created COD1, 2, COD4: MW1 and MW2 and left on very bad terms... they also took most of the Infinity Ward staff with them which explains why MW3 was such a pile of shit. Basically everything good about Infinity Ward left activision and went to EA.. their biggest rival. They have been working on an original project for years now, and have been very cryptic about what it is. They had been talking about making an COD MMO, and other various things to take COD into a new direction before the fisaco of their departure happened. I wonder if they got an inside scoop as to what was being worked on an then recruited Bungie to not only compete with it, but beat them to the punch. The graphics for this game has me feeling this wont hit PS3 and 360.. it will be a big hype machine and then get pushed back into PS4 and the new Xbox. Its too late in the game to release a big block buster game with a supposed long lifespan on an obsolete console. If the rumors are true and the next gen starts this holiday season, don't hold your breath hoping this will be a current gen game. E3 will be very interesting this year. I'm sure the next COD, Battlefield 4, Star Wars 1313, Madden 2014, an any other big release or annual release will be announced for the next gen. Lastly, I wonder how Activision is going to handle having to run actual servers now since they have been too tightwad to use it for COD... A hosting method is clearly impossible for this type of game.

Yes its all. I've gotten 2 swarms and a warthog out of the entire time I've ever gotten them. I'd say 80% of the time I get a UAV/CUAV another 15% of the time I get a Death Machine or War Machine, 4% of the time I get a Dragonfire or Escort Drone, and the last 2% I get higher packages... and if you have engineer you can change once it by double tapping the X/Square button, but it generally rolls into an equivalent... a UAV almost always goes to a CUAV, sometimes an RC-X/D, Hellfire goes into Lightning Strike, War Machine goes into Death Machine, Sentry Gun goes into Death Machine, I generally dont take a chance when I get to Dragonfire or higher because I'm afraid it will give me an RC-X/D

People don't seem to realize that even if humans didn't exist, there is no stopping climate change. Its a natural process the earth goes through. Just look at the history of the earths average temperature, and atmospheric composition. During the era of dinosaurs there was a long more oxygen in the atmosphere and the world was warmer.... then....

You have to throw that EMP grenade at the right time to take out a hellstorm or hunter killer. I've done it twice with success. You can also shoot down the Hellstorm with your primary weapon if you hit it before they split it into clusters. You cannot do that to bigger Score Streaks that I know of. You can black hat them though, The 1st black hat will deploy their flares, the second will take them out. If you don't have blind eye its pretty hard however. I get the dragonfire will general easy even without.... which btw the Dragonfire is a pretty good streak as well. The Warship better be that powerful, its pretty hard to get 1600 points without dying . I think it might take 3 hits to take it out from rockets. The Vtol is pretty powerful but its nothing compared to MW2's AC130 and Chopper gunner. In a COD era where explosives had a huge blast radius, these were the most powerful of all killstreaks. The AC130 had 2 sets of flares and was pretty tough to take down. While you could generally take it out in 3 rockets, it was so high up in the air it took a while for final rocket to reach it allowing ample time to cause some serious damage: AC130 Chopper Gunner It only took 11 kills to get these streaks, but at that time it seemed a lot since MW1 and WAW had only a 3-5-7 streak. Now 11 kills will only get you what 7 would in MW1, and 7 in World at War was basically a stronger version of K-9 unit. Thats a big reason why I liked Black Ops 2, the bigger stronger kill streaks are hard to obtain so you dont see them as much. On MW2, you'd have a Pavelow and AC130 going while an air strike and predator missile was coming in. It was fustrating if you were on a terrible team, because there was nothing you could do to protect yourself against that kind of barrage.

The SMR has the highest damage of any assault rifle, if you can suffer through its single fire to get the select fire, its well worth it. The only draw back outside of that is that it only has a 20 round mag, and extended mags only give you 6 more shots. The reloading time is moderately longer than other assault rifles as well. While working up to select fire I recommend fast mags. Maybe fore grip. I've never used an optic on it, so I cant tell you how recoil effects it. 2 shots to the chest should kill anyone. If you can't kill someone in 3, you have a bad host. I also like it because My emblem can be seen clearly on the stock like the R870 so people can see HARSH whey they are killed. The most powerful score streak is probably the vtol warship as long as no one takes it out, the most powerful outside of that is the Swarm. I've gotten a swarm out of a care package twice and its netted me 10-11 kills. If you get it on the right map like Carrier or Slums, its hard to get away from. The Warthog is very powerful as well... but these are all very high streaks that are more suited for Domination/Hardpoint/Demolition. Here is a pretty good look at some of them. He's using Combat training I assume, 75-0 TDM is impossible http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRaFAQHg7xw The Sentry gun is an excellent score streak for TDM and Kill Confirmed. If everyone used EMP grenades it would be horrible, but they dont lol. Without EMP grenades the Sentry is pretty tough to take out. In previous COD games all you needed to do was knife it and it was gone. Its health has been increased drastically. I personally like the AGR because it roams around on its own and does some business. I could control it myself, but I don't want to die, and rather cycle back through my score streaks. The Sentry gun can get you pretty close to an AGR on its own, I treat them both as my personal assistants as It makes a team of 3 with me running around shooting while they do their thing. I'm thinking about dropping care package and going with Stealth Chopper since its only 100 more points from the AGR. If I had a Sentry, AGR, and Stealth chopper on the map, it would be pretty impressive. The AGR can't be taken out as cheaply as air support, which is why i use it. The people I play with blow everything out of the sky within seconds of its arrival. 2 rockets takes out anything bigger than a UAV/CUAV. I don't want my score streak taken out like that if I worked hard to get that 1100 points for it. Host migration is the cost of not having servers. Back when MW1 was around if the host quit, that was the end of the match period. If you were doing good, you just got screwed over. This also was the case in WAW... host migration didn't exist until MW2, and it was acutally such a big deal it was included in the per-launch trailer. lol

My 33-8 match was cut in half on the theater because the host migrated, which pisses me off. So I recorded some highlights from the next match where I went 34-14. I recorded my AGR/Sentry Gun kills, but the game locked up after I uploaded this one, and I don't feel like waiting for another one to upload.

Here is a video I posted earlier in the post for the sake of showing off the R870, but I have a couple of Chicom Kills in it as well since you were asking.

I can already see the steaming games service going down from too much traffic the first few weeks of launch.

I've never seen it, but looking it up it looks like it means they are talking into the mic. Since I run XBL party chat, even when I'm playing by myself. I never see that . If you're not running engineer on perk 3, you're wasting a perk. I see you run it on your Scar class. The only reason I don't permanently unlock it is because it unlocks at rank 14. Next time you know someone is camping up the steps, just sprint pass their betty and take them out. ... just don't try it on a shock charge.... It doesn't work because the radius is so large.

Accuracy wise is probably the most balanced gun in the game. It burst fires, I've never tried full auto with select fire but I've been demolished by it quite a bit. The iron sights take some getting use to, but I think it will do you good. I use the PDW solely for its 50 round mag size, plus I have the MMS for it to see through walls now that its double prestiged. I run Ghost for the sole fact that it make you invisable to UAV as long as your are in motion. You cannot cheat by moving in a small circle to camp while the UAV is active. When you are invisible, your yellow arrow on the map will be faded to let you know that the UAV cannot detect you. The only time you can be invisible while not in motion is when you are planting a bomb, and maybe capturing a flag. I don't use rockets, and I dont waste my black hats on UAV's so I prefer to be invisible to them along with my suppressors. My deaths usally result from me reloading, or my weapon doesn't have the suppressor unlocked and I get shot by someone after I had scored a kill because I showed up on their map. Sometimes I'm tempted to use Greed 1 to add blind eye with Ghost for complete invisibility, but people don't get enough score streaks going for it to bother me to much. Scavenger is really the only Perk 2 I like besides cold blooded. It gives me more black hats and ammo so I don't worry about running out. Thats the main reason I use it. IMO Engineer is the best perk in the game. Nothing in perk 3 compares. You can see all equipment through walls allowing me to blackhat shock charges, bettys, and claymores from outside. It either scores me an easy kill, or at the very least minimizes camper's abilities. Its gotta piss someone off when you see them set up their sentry gun from across the map and you lob your EMP grenade near it for a cool 125pts before it even gets to shoot. While using engineer, I've never been killed by planted equipment.. I haven't even praised how you can run past claymores and bettys and there is a 1 second delay before they go off. Sometimes I'll do that to get the drop on someone that I know is sniping out the window. By the time their betty goes off, you are already at their back pulling the trigger. Ghost/Scav/Engineer is on every class I have except 1... My camping class. I hate campers, but occasionally me and 5 other friends will make a full team and cause hell for people for fun and team camp. On Hijack we all hide in the underside of the map covering both entrances with shotguns. On yemen we hide out in the building that has the tunnel that runs under it. On drone we stake out in one of the buildings thats on the opposite ends of the machine room. and On aftermath, where this all started, we hide in the central room that everyone likes to camp in with the ladder and bathroom. For this I run a special class. Primary: Whatever shotgun I'm working camo assignments Secondary: B23R (if im not using shock charges) Perk 1: Flak Jacket Perk 2: Scavenger Perk 3: Tactical Mask Lethal: 2 bouncing bettys (danger close wildcard) Tactical: Trophy System (2 shock charges when I haven't unlocked the trophy system) This class lets me throw 2 bettys to cover 2 entrances, the trophy system takes out 3-4 lethal/tacticals that people try to throw in at us. Flak Jacket is way over powered and allows me to survive any explosive blast, Tact Mask makes me invulnerable to flashbangs or concussion grenades. Scavenger serves its purpose to give me more bettys and trophy systems from the bodies that make it pass my primary defenses and find themselves at the end of my shotgun. Its pretty funny how mad people get, they even vote fore the map again and try to get to your camp zone before you can. You should try out Flak Jacket if you have it. You'll rarely ever die from a grenade, unless you are already hurt. Full health I think it may take more than 2 explosions to kill you. You can also take a hit from a hunter killer, hellstorm missile, and even the AGR's rocket without dying.

The only thing I'd like a screen on my controller for is for a Map you'd normally have to pause the game to look at, or access to menu items that normally require a pause.

There is no excuse to have a controller that bulky when there are phones with touch screens as thin as they are on the current market. The controller should only be wider between the joysticks. Hopefully we will see something different in 6 days.

I just had the match of my life. I switched my Score Streak to Care Package, Sentry Gun, A.G.R, because I've gotten to the point where I burn through care packages so fast I don't get to use them. I've started playing Mutli-Team with 2 other friends and its done wonders for me. No idiots on my team that go 0-21 when i do good. Its just 3 of us relying on each other against 2 other 3 man teams. We try to sway the votes towards TDM and Kill Confirmed, but we're pretty handy with Hard Point, we just prefer not to play it. I ended up getting 3 care packages, 2 sentry guns, and 2 AGRs in a single match. My Care packages were RC-, Hellstorm Missile, and Orbital VSAT. These are my two current favorite classes. I used the SMR class on that match however. I use the PDW/S12 on smaller maps. The only reason I'm using the S12 is because I want the diamond camo for my R870, So I'm suffering through that long process. Its not that its a bad shotgun (I have the best KD with it), its the fact that its hard to get 1 hit kills as required by its camo assignments. Current best weapons Current Standing

I watched the difference between the demo and the final release and that explains it. The demo's graphics where way better. Its pretty sad. I was looking forward to this. Its unlike Gearbox to release garbage.... another flop for Sega. Just look http://kotaku.com/5984024/the-aliens-colonial-marines-demo-looked-great-the-actual-game-not-so-much?utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Facebook&utm_source=Kotaku_Facebook&utm_medium=Socialflow

How many of these are they gonna make? And how many times is the antagonist of the previous film going to join up with Vin Diesel?

Wow, the screen looks like a infrared node on an 80's TV remote. I hope they shape that thing up, Its hideous, I'll take the boomerang controller any day.

The navy or coast guard has lasers now that can burn up boat engines that the drug cartels try to smuggle in their packages with. I saw a video on it a year ago, pretty wild stuff. The motor just busts into flames
