Infinity Ward's Character Driven | Call of Duty: Ghosts

With Infinity Ward moving away from a major series of Call of Duty, Ghosts main focus will be character driven.  The teams working on Call of Duty: Ghosts  show interest in the single player aspect, calling it a much more "emotional" experience.  The team wants to keep the player involved while delivering story with the characters actions and those of the squad around him.  

Zach Volker, the lead animator on the team, tells The Guardian , “What we're trying to do this time is focus more on being a character with other characters, telling the story of how they experience the events. It's still a Call of Duty title so don't expect long cut scenes or anything like that.”  adding,
“We're not trying to make it an open-world game, and some levels will be more scripted and corridor-like. But there are levels that have been purposefully designed to be very open.”

Also with Stephan Gaghan to put together this story, a screenwriter best known for his work on films like "Traffic" and "Syriana," it will likely be more grounded than the "Modern Warfare" and "Black Ops" arcs.

The Official Call of Duty: Ghosts Reveal Trailer


Ghosts will take place in an entirely new timeline with a brand new set of characters. It is set in the aftermath of a catastrophe that has destroyed America as we know it.  A decade after the devastation, a band of ex-spec op soldiers known as "Ghosts" are waging guerrilla warfare against a currently unknown enemy.

Call of Duty Ghosts is set to be released November 5, 2013 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC and for the XboxOne and PS4 when the consoles are released at a later date.

'Pacific Rim' New TV Spot

When alien monsters attack Earth, giant robots piloted by humans are created to fight off the chaos. "To fight Monsters we created Monsters!" Pacific Rim is an upcoming summer movie, directed by Guillermo Del Toro. Check out the new TV spot below:

The film compliments the Japanese “kaiju” (giant monsters) sub-genre, made popular by iconic franchises like Godzilla.  Having appeared from a dimensional portal deep within the Pacific Ocean, humanity fights back with giant robots called Jaegers. The robots are manned by two mind-linked pilots but at the center of this tale we find an odd-pair of pilots – a damaged veteran Raleigh Antrobus (Charlie Hunnam) and a novice Mako Mori (Rinko Kikuchi) – who must lead the fate of the planet with their obsolete Jaeger.

Official Movie Trailer:

Official Synopsis:
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Release date:  July 12, 2013

'Riddick' Teaser | You're Not Afraid Of The Dark, Are You?

After a years of waiting, we finally have a teaser trailer for all 'Riddick' fans! Since the first release dating back thirteen years from the movie 'Pitch Black', a fan favorite, there was some highs and lows for the following sequel 'The Chronicles Of Riddick' which failed to satisfy the box office. But, Diesel never gave up on the third film as he would hint on ideas he might pursue.  Then, back in May of 2011, Vin had confirmed a start date for the production of a film simply titled 'Riddick.' 

The teaser does not show much but here is the recent synopsis below:

The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he’s encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty. The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won’t leave the planet without Riddick’s head as their trophy.

Transformers 4 | Mark Wahlberg's Confirmed Role

It's official, Mark Wahlberg will star in Transformers 4! After weeks of rumors and Internet craze over Wahlberg's involvement on Transformers 4, Michael Bay confirmed it, having the rumors partially convincing him to make the offer.

Here is Michael Bay's official comment on Wahlberg’s casting:

“Mark is awesome. We had a blast working on ‘Pain and Gain’ and I’m so fired up to be back working with him. An actor of his caliber is the perfect guy to re-invigorate the franchise and carry on the ‘Transformers’ legacy.”

After Michael Bay previously claimed that Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon would be his last. It was a ride on a Universal Studios roller coaster that convinced him the fourth time would be the charm.  Also, along with the casting announcement comes a reveal of the film’s logo treatment, (top of page) it’s still missing a subtitle. It's unknown if Paramount will stick with the ’4′ or come up with a better one later.

The darker sections of Transformers: Dark of the Moon were the main problems for some people. But now with Wahlberg attached to the role, the first member of the completely new cast of humans and robots, T4 might notably set a different tone than those that preceded it.

Release Date: June 29th, 2014

I can only begin to imagine, as I know you are too.

The Bourne Legacy Trailer

The Bourne Legacy first new trailer has been released which looks to be an interesting teaser.  First lets clear some confusion on this movie.  It is not a continuation of the storyline from previous 'Bourne' movies, nor a reboot of the franchise.  Instead it is a different story of another programmed Treadstone assassin Aaron Cross (Jeremy Renner).  So think of it as the same organization, but a different story of a different agent.

In the trailer there is one concern, that 'Cross' is a more "Stable" programme than 'Bourne.'  Maybe stable meaning under the strict direction of the organization.  Even though in the previous films, as I remember 'Jason Bourne' was the most deadliest programme produced by Treadstone.  Either way I like the assassin Arron Cross (Jeremy Renner) portrays.  Perhaps we have to wait to watch the film to see how it all makes sense.  All in all, I feel many of us will be curious on how 'The Bourne Legacy' relates to all prior films. 

Synopsis:  The narrative architect behind the "Bourne" film series, Tony Gilroy, takes the helm in the next chapter of the hugely popular espionage franchise that has earned almost $1 billion at the global box office: "The Bourne Legacy." The writer/director expands the "Bourne" universe created by Robert Ludlum with an original story that introduces us to a new hero (Jeremy Renner) whose life-or-death stakes have been triggered by the events of the first three films.

For "The Bourne Legacy," Renner joins fellow series newcomers Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Stacy Keach and Oscar Isaac, while franchise veterans Albert Finney, Joan Allen, David Strathairn and Scott Glenn reprise their roles.

Release Date: August 3, 2012

Starring: Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Albert Finney, Joan Allen, Scott Glenn, Stacy Keach, Oscar Isaac

The Expendables 2 Official Teaser Trailer

The first Official Teaser Trailer for The Expendables 2! And just to tease you a little more, here is the plot to the party!

Synopsis:
The Expendables are back and this time it's personal... Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone), Lee Christmas (Lee Statham), Yin Yang (Jet Li), Gunnar Jensen (Dolph Lundgren),Toll Road (Randy Couture) and Hale Caesar (Terry Crews) -- with newest members Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth) and Maggie (Yu Nan) aboard -- are reunited when Mr. Church (Bruce Willis) enlists the Expendables to take on a seemingly simple job. The task looks like an easy paycheck for Barney and his band of old-school mercenaries. But when things go wrong and one of their own is viciously killed, the Expendables are compelled to seek revenge in hostile territory where the odds are stacked against them. Hell-bent on payback, the crew cuts a swath of destruction through opposing forces, wreaking havoc and shutting down an unexpected threat in the nick of time -- six pounds of weapons-grade plutonium; enough to change the balance of power in the world. But that's nothing compared to the justice they serve against the villainous adversary who savagely murdered their brother. That is done the Expendables way....

Release Date: August 17, 2012

Assassin's Creed Revelations - Reviews

Time has come! Assassins Creed Revelations, being released at midnight throughout many locations in the nation. I am positive there are still people standing in line waiting for their copy. Let's get some facts in about the game. As we know, this is the end of Ezio's adventure, yes, my friends, confirming his last time as being the hero. Some of us have complained in the past about getting tired of him being the hero, but it's hard not to feel a bit of sadness as his story comes to an end.

In Revelations, he genuinely grows as a character. This is a big game with well over 30 missions. And if you're invested in the Assassin's Creed storyline, you simply have to finish it - even if the idea of spending another 30 hours as Ezio puts you off. Revelations' final hours not only explicitly hints at the direction of the next game in the series, but puts to rest one of its biggest mysteries in a memorable and dramatic way.

Ultimately, there are many reviews and mostly many claiming the reliance on recycled gameplay as its biggest flaw. But when it's good, it's really good, also having some very funny scenes. There are many moments that make the game worth it, and ensures this is an excellent value for the price.

As Ezio's journey comes to an end, the haunting ending in Assassins Creed | Revelations suggest the next game will be something very interesting, indeed.  Other than being almost the same game we've played in the past this is an entertaining, imaginative action-adventure game with an engaging story full of surprises.
