EA has made their marketing strategy clear. They want to beat the reigning champ, Call of Duty, or at least take a chunk out of its market share. Every first person shooter wants to be CoD and who can blame them? The money CoD rakes in every year is unbelievable.
Interestingly enough, this time EA is sticking to The Danger Close team making Medal of Honor Warfighter as grounded and real as possible in hope that it would attract the gamers. They believe that gamers who are looking for the authentic feel of a modern battlefield might prefer Warfighter over Black Ops 2. They have based this assumption on the fact that Treyarch has taken a very futuristic approach with BO2 which might not be well received by gamers. Some diehard CoD fans have actually voiced out their concerns regarding this in forums and blogs all over the internet.
If true, this could very well be MoH's year. It is obvious that MoH may surpasses BO2 thanks to its amazing Frostbite 2 engine. MoH is supposed to

This game has had a rough start. From the beginning when the idea of a reboot was presented, both Ninja Theory (developers) and Capcom were sent to the firing range. The fans really didn't like the whole idea of a reboot and especially made a fuss over how the new Dante looked.
I was glad to see that Capcom didn't budge under pressure and the only thing that the complaints. Just to keep them happy the developers just tweaked how Dante looked (very slightly). But in my opinion a remake was way over due.
As more details and gameplay videos are released, more people are actually being convinced that this iteration could well be the best of the franchise. I like

Cloud gaming is a thing of the future. Developers and publishers alike widely accept this fact to be the truth. Even the rumors surrounding the next-gen consoles, PS4 and Xbox 720, suggest that they will be featuring similar cloud gaming services and that physical media is at the end of its life cycle.
Whether physical media has become obsolete or not is still left to be determined as I (amongst many others) would still prefer to have an actual copy of the game instead of just the digital version. I believe those without access super fast internet (if any) who share my sentiment.
Regardless of these minute details one thing is for sure, cloud gaming is definitely the future. Just recently Sony has acquired the cloud gaming service Gaikai for a lump sum of $380 million. SCE boss Andrew House mentioned that with this union will allow Sony to bring "unparalleled cloud entertainment experiences."
But it seems that a totally unexpected and quite revolutionary console will

Treyarch has repeated time and time again that they are going to make the whole Black Ops 2 experience epic and from what we have seen from GamesCom, they sure did keep their word. In this article I will bring to you what I feel were the top features of Black Ops 2 multiplayer (shown till now).
Class Creation - 10 Point System
Treyarch has completely redefined the create-a-class feature that has remained pretty much standard since the first Modern Warfare. They have implemented a new 10 Point System with which players can now build their class (points are used to equip weapons, equipments etc.). This system removes the restraints of having fixed number of grenades, equipments and weapons, and will essentially allow players to make their very own unique class that suits their playing style.
Killstreaks replaced by Scorestreaks
Black Ops 2 will also be utilizing Scorestreaks instead of Killstreaks (similar to that seen in Modern Warfare 3). This system will allow

Hey everyone,
I would just like to introduce myself as the newest intern here at Evil Controllers. I will be doing a series on Minecraft and being completely new at this very creative and unforgiving game.Today I will begin to start the arduous journey of creating a new Minecraft world as THIRDSTAGE5150 with my companion katycat37.
During this journey I will NOT use the wiki. The reason why I am not using a wiki is because I am the type of person who likes to figure out how to play a game instead of someone else telling me how to do something.
I feel this gives a sense of accomplishment and increases my skills in critical thinking because I had to figure it out on my own. So think of me as a pre-historic block man.
This game has always made me curious but I have never given it a second thought. A couple of days ago I saw a friend of mine play it and then I just got this craving to build and destroy.
As a side note: I believe that

Resident Evil 6 Gameplay Info
Resident Evil 6 is taking the franchise into a whole new direction, away from the survival horror genre to more of an action adventure genre. Not many people were happy about that of course especially long term fans who enjoyed the games because of the horror factor.
I myself am an old school fan of the franchise and honestly RE is still my pretty much my favorite franchise (RE3 being my favorite). I didn't judge Capcom too much for the shift in genre but I hoped they wouldn't mess it up too much. Based on what I saw from the gameplay videos available for RE6, I liked some of the changes while disliked others.

Next Generation Of Consoles Are Close
You guys should have already read about the Brian Hall, General Manager of Windows Live, referring to the "new Xbox" during his interview with The Verge. Soon after that though Microsoft came in and said that his statement was taken out of context and that Hall was actually referring to the Xbox 360 which is about to get an update that would bring a host of new consumer experiences like Xbox Music, Videos, SmartGlass etc.But in a surprising turn of events the President of EA Labels, Frank Gibeau, mentioned during his keynote address at the opening ceremony of Gamescom that he has actually SEEN both

Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Maps
With the reveal of Block Ops 2's multiplayer at GamesCom there is just TOO MUCH info available on everything. I think Treyarch is planning on blowing away everybody with all the details surrounding the multiplayer. One post is not nearly enough to cover it all but we shall take a look at some of the more prominent info they have made available.
First thing we are going to take a look at is the Emblem Editor which is making a comeback from the first Black Ops. If you guys remember Emblem Editor allowed players to create their very own custom emblems using layers of clip-art graphics which could be modified in a million ways (color, size, angle

New Xbox Rumor
Well it's about time isn't it? For Microsoft to reveal SOMETHING about the next gen Xbox right?
It seems that one of their employees thought we deserved to know more and thanks to him we get to hear the very first actual reference towards the new Xbox. In an interview with The Verge, Brian Hall (General Manager of Windows Live) literally mentioned that the "new Xbox" when listing the wide range of Microsoft products that could be incorporated with Windows 8.
This is what Hall said during his interview, "We've had Hotmail and operated Hotmail for about 16 years. We obviously have Exchange, and Outlook, that people use at work. We just decided
