Call of Duty: What is going on with Infinite Warfare?

                   The new Call of Duty trailer is out.  So far, it has over 2 million dislikes!  The trailer is hitting records.  The reasoning behind this is because people of people not liking  exo-suits(they make you jump higher).  I also disliked it because I want the franchise to go back to it's roots and make a World War II game. Call of Duty hasn't been listening to their buyer's complaints, so they are being mocked by other game companies like how EA said "is this a 2010 trailer?" One reason why people will still pay for this Call of Duty is to get the re-mastered edition of Call of Duty 4.  The re-mastered edition isn't even the full game.  It has half the multiplayer maps and has updated graphics.
            If you want a fun World War game in a couple months, hope is not lost.  The new Battlefield game has been announced and it will exceed your expectations.  Many fans are switching to Battlefield and aren't coming back to Call of Duty.  Personally, I don't disagree with them.  At the end of the day, they are both unique game franchises with different game styles, but Infinity Ward (Call of Duty Infinite Warfare company) really needs to complete their fans' requests.
             

The world of video game mods

       With video games on the PC, you can download "mods" to make your gaming experience better. They can do things like changing textures, sound, giving cheats, adding new areas/levels, adding new enemies, new quest, new gear, and more and are made by other people. Mods used to only be on websites where you would have to install them and put in the games files. Although some games still have you do this, Steam (A marketplace for PC games) has a workshop section where you can easily download mods for games. The Xbox One and PS4 versions of Fallout 4 will be able to download mods later in May 2016. The world of mods is truly a great place.

Call of Duty: What is happening?

    The popular video game francize , Call of Duty, is a first person shooter full of action and excitement. Three different companies making COD (Call of Duty) games.  The newest COD, Black Ops 3, has supply drops that give you three things, a weapon cameo, new gear, a calling card, or a rare weapon.  You can open supply drops by playing the game or paying for supply drops using COD points.  Lately, there has been a black market "Blackout" where people aren't paying real money for these supply drops.  Treyarch has responded to this by adding black market contracts.  Basically, if you win 75 games, you get a free weapon and 10x rare supply drops.  Also, they are going to add daily and weekly contracts.
           Because I own the season pass and I won 75 games, I was able to obtain two weapons. The mx Grand and the HG-40 from my bribe.  One of my friends was even luckier than I was and ended up gaining 2 weapons from the free rare supply drops. My complaint about this new weapon drop is that you can get a repeat or just a re-skin of the combat knife.  My friend, Brandon, spent the weekend grinding the game (Playing it non-stop) and he just got a crowbar which does nothing special.  Overall, I like how they gave everyone a free way to get a black market weapon. Other games like CS:GO allow players to be able to sell excusive/rare weapons for real life cash, but in this game, people are just wasting their money.   I hope that Treyarch will do more of this and reward people for playing their game instead of making people empty their wallets just to get an in game weapon.

 

 



Overwatch

I played the open beta for Overwatch when it came out. Overwatch is a game made by Blizzard and is a game a team based game with different characters (Similar to Team Fortress 2). I found to be a lot of fun. The many different characters made it a blast to play. Every time you level up, you get a loot crate to get taunts, skins, and sprays. The two game modes they had at the time were payload and point capture. Point capture - take or defend the objective from the other team depend on what team your on. Payload - Make sure the car does/doesn't go to the objective in the time limit depending on what team your on. Overwatch also has a lot of different maps. I plan on getting this game when it comes out.
