Call of Duty: Black Ops Rezurrection - Zombie Authority

Treyarch is know for working on the Call of Duty series, but even more for their (Nazi) zombie game mode. There is a darker side to the game studio, Treyarch performs test and research using live zombies. It is a scary and mess job. Although in the end the zombie lab's research helps to bring a authentic zombie killing experience. Near the end of the trailer we get to see another preview for the new zombie map "moon". A new grenade and a new weapon are shown. The new weapon causes a zombie to bloat, then explode. The preview shows more of the new environmental hazard "zero-gravity". The Rezurrection map pack will release first for Xbox Live on August 23, 2011. I will be reviewing the map pack next week, so stay tune.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Spec Ops Survival Trailer

Modern Warfare 3 will have a survival mode available to play within it's Spec Ops mode. The Survival mode has you and a friend fighting against waves of ever increasingly difficult enemies. Like many survival modes you make money by killing which in turn you use to buy weapons, ammo upgrades, equipment, turrets, killstreaks, and even friendly A.I. to help you in the fight. Unlike Treyarch's zombie mode you don't buy the items off a wall, but instead you purchase weapons, equipment, etc, from a onscreen menu. I assume you have the opportunity to buy items in between waves. You and your friend will have to fight more then just generic soldiers, but everything from helicopters, attack dogs strap with explosives, chemical agents, and the dreaded juggernaut. With the "survival mode" becoming a standard game type in many of today's triple A games it will be interesting to see how Call of Duty will mix things up to really separate themselves from the competition.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Rezurrection Pack

Included in the Rezurrection Pack:

• A brand new zombie map (its on the Mooooon!)
• All of the zombie maps from World of War (all maps have been remastered, maps were previously included with the hardened and prestige editions of Black Ops)
• An enhanced zombie soundtrack including three new tracks
• A zombie moon theme (for Xbox 360 dashboard)

I'm glad to see a map pack for Black Ops which will include five zombie maps and a dashboard theme. This is what I've been wishing Treyarch would make a map pack with all zombie maps. The Rezurrection pack is coming first to the Xbox 360. The map pack will cost 1200 Microsoft Points (15$).

ORIGINAL STORY: Information on Modern Warfare 3 leaked early, but that’s not going to stop us from getting excited about the game’s first trailer.

Robert Bowling, Creative Strategist at Infinity Ward, just tweeted about the teaser trailer for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3. He also mention that a lot of the info that has "leaked" is inacurate. "A lot of hype & a lot of leaked info on #MW3, some still accurate, some not. To avoid spoiling the experience, I'd wait for the real reveal." We're expecting to see the game at this years E3, so we can look forward to having this all straightened out then. -(information from gameinformers.com)

It seems that part of the game does indeed take place in New York. Another interesting tidbit is the Russian at the end. If you're curious, we roughly translated Makarov's speech to mean, "One dreams of destroying all hope of victory." -( Information from ign.com)
