Whilst a lot of player's interest for Titanfall has died out, Respawn Entertainment are still trying hard to keep things fresh and updated. Recently, I played Titanfall for the first time since it's launch period, and I must say that the game has improved tremendously.
Now, for the first time ever, Respawn Entertainment have added a brand new Player vs AI mode that pits four pilots against waves of enemies. Players must defend the harvester against the waves, and they will lose if the harvester gets destroyed.
In similar fashion to Call of Duty Zombies, the AI in Titanfall will become harder to deal with on each round. Each round will have a combination of different spectre, ghost and titan units, and Respawn have also added some unique units into the co-op mode.
One of the unique units is the suicide spectre- these run at ridiculous speeds straight towards the harvester, and will explode upon touching the harvester or any other players. The second unique unit is the

It's easy to see the similarities between Destiny and Borderlands, and in fact, because of the drop-in and drop-out co-op play, randomized and meaningful weapons, these are the two games that are similar enough to make the best comparison against. For this reason, there's going to be a lot of talk about what each game does better, and even Bungie has jumped in on the discussion.
Joe Staten, creative lead for Bungies' new game, Destiny, has taken the time to speak with EDGE about the game, stating a few things about why Destiny is still a worthwhile play after playing Borderlands and what makes it stand out.
The first big thing that Joe Staten talks about is of course the huge online multiplayer that takes place. For example, whilst you're busy with your friends cleaning out an area of the immersive world, there could be another squad tackling a different objective, and you'll often see and come across other squads in this manner.
"When we look at a game like that, we

More Skyrim
Amazon.de has revealed a page showcasing a newly revamped edition of the hugely successful Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. Although nothing official has been announced by Bethesda, Amazon isn't usually the type to put products onto their website without the acknowledgement from the seller first.
The new premium edition, which according to Amazon will be available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland on December 7th, will include the original game, along with a bunch of extra physical and digital content.
The product will include a map of the world of Tamriel, a t-shirt with the emblem of the Empire, Hell City:

New Black Ops 2 Weapon Customization
One of the greatest things about Call of Duty's multiplayer has always been the amount of weapon customization, and with Modern Warfare 2, players could finally start to make their experience unique to their own gameplay style. In Black Ops 2, players will be able to customize weapons with attachments, and add perks to loadouts just like other games, but this time round Treyarch have added a lot of extra bits and pieces of customization that allow players to make themselves stand out.
In Black Ops 2 there will be a huge range of weapon camos, ranging from standard military camo to bright pink cherry blossom skinned weapons. Every weapon in the multiplayer can be skinned with a custom camo, including both secondary and primary weapons.
Here's an image of the camo select screen sent to MP1st by one of their readers:

Borderlands 2 Exploit
If you're playing Borderlands 2 with people you don't know on Xbox Live, you may want to be careful. Hackers have found a way into Borderlands 2 code and have come across a 'hardcore mode' left in the code within the game. If you die with hardcore mode activated, your character data would be completely wiped from the game. Hardcore mode creates extra tension by making gameplay much more risky, forcing players to think twice about their actions in-game. However, the exploit in code has opened up possibilities for other players without the hardcore mode to lose their progress when playing with others who have the code activated.

Black Ops 2 Leaks
It seems none of the big shooters this year can escape the horde of leaked gameplay and pre-release day copies getting into the hands of a few sneaky players, and following from the huge surge of leaked gameplay of Halo 4 after thousands of players with JTAG'ed Xboxes got their hands on a digital copy of the game, players have now uploaded tons of footage of Black Ops 2 for the whole world to see.
Although no one is quite sure how widespread the pre-release day copies have reached, a few websites have stated that most leaked content has come from Slovakia. Players have uploaded images and gameplay of the menus and features in-game.

Rumor Mill: Modern Warfare 4
There's been a Call of Duty game practically every year thanks to Treyarch and Infinity Ward, and because of the franchise's huge success, it's likely that there will continue to be a new Call of Duty release every year for quite a few years to come. It seems strange to be talking about Infinity Ward's next Call of Duty when Treyarch's Black Ops 2 isn't even on sale yet, but if there is to be a COD game next year, now would seem a likely time for Treyarch to start calling out to more talent for the development of the game, such as voice actors or sound testers.
According to Bill Murray, a voice actor for the hugely

Warfighter: Manhunt Map Pack
If you pre-ordered the limited edition of MOH: Warfighter, then you will already have access to the new Manhunt map pack, but if you purchased the standard edition, the new map pack will cost $9.99.
Manhunt, or the Thirty Dark Days DLC, lets players experience the tension soldiers had in the hunt for Bin Laden, focusing on two maps where Bin Laden had previously visited. Darra Gun Market and Chitral Compound are the two new maps located in Pakistan, and will feature dusty back alleys and worn-down buildings. Although you won't actually find Bin Laden, the new maps give the players the image of a pursuit through the two areas as the

Halo 4 Info
One of the most frustrating things to happen in matchmaking in previous Halo games is when the rest of your team decides to quit. In a game like big team battle, it may not seem like much of a deal, but after one or two people quit, usually a lot of others will follow, and it makes it boring and extremely difficult to ever stand a chance against the enemy team, especially in smaller games.
343 are hoping to fix this by allowing players to join other games in progress. This will make matchmaking times significantly shorter whilst making sure no one has an unfair advantage against the opposing team.
There have also been a few other changes

Far Cry 3 Info
If you enjoy playing through campaigns and story modes with your friend, then news on Far Cry 3's new Co-op features may or may not be good news to you.
The Co-op gameplay will offer a complete new story which is played out 6 months before the main campaign but still on the same island, as it follows four characters exclusive to the co-op campaign.
Quite often developers end up paying less attention to co-op side missions or extra content, and that's if they include it at all, but Far Cry 3's creative director, Magnus Jensen, says the multiplayer co-op offers the same kind of intensity of the full game.
"The co-op is a full, custom-made campaign,"
