Now, this is a pleasant surprise! While all eyes are firmly on Call Of Duty World War II. Most of us thought that Activision had pretty much wiped their hands clean of Infinite Warfare, well as far as new content went. But that has proven not to be the case.
While we all know that Overwatch is having their annual Halloween event. The big surprise this week is that Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare is also going to be having some fun this Halloween. Running up until the 1st of November. Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare players will be able to score some awesome supply drops that have themed loot. The event is being called Willard Wyler’s Halloween Scream and it sounds like a blast. The Carnage multiplayer map looks awesome and we are also getting double XP as well.
A new game mode is being added called Gesture Warfare which allows you to kill opponents by using hand gestures! Now this sound crazy, but it looks like something that is going to be a ton of fun.
There has also been talk of boss battles from the Zombies mode being made into their own thing, but this is one thing that Activision has not really been clear on. We do not know if they are adding bosses to the zombie's maps or putting them all together in their own mode. Either way, you can count us in with this as our modded controllers are awesome in zombies mode.
We think it is really cool that Activision are having this last update in Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare as one last hurrah for the game before Call Of Duty World War II is released.
Get ready to dish out some more orders to your squad as we have a look at another one of the classic games in the Rainbow Six series.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Lockdown (2005) Xbox, PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, PCBy now, Rainbow Six was one of the premier shooter franchises and for this installment, things to a bit more of an action heavy kind of feel. Once again you play as Rainbow team. In the year 2009, you have been tasked with putting a stop to a terrorist organization called Global Liberation Front who have a virus called Legion that they want to unleash.
The console versions of the game were certainly more action based. Added into the console versions were these sniper sections which had a real shooter gallery kind of feel as you had to pick off various targets. Interestingly these sniper sections were not in the PC game. While Rainbow Six Lockdown still featured many of the tactical elements from past games. Action certainly seemed to be the direction that Ubisoft wanted to take the series in.
This more action heavy game resulted in mixed reviews, especially for the PC version as many fans felt this was a dumbed down version of what they had come to love.
Both the PlayStation 2 and Xbox would get their own exclusive online mode with the PlayStation 2 having Rivalry and the Xbox having a mode called Persistent Elite Creation which was actually a huge deal and something many people got into. The GameCube version did not support online play, but it did have an exclusive 2 player co-op mode.
This is not one of the more popular games in the series and you could argue that the response it got made Ubisoft take a long hard look at the series.
With Call Of Duty WW2 being out for over a month now, some of you who purchased just the standard version of the game may be ready for something new. You have probably completed the campaign, played each multiplayer mode to death and fought on each map so many times that you know them like the back of your hand. Season passes are the done thing in games these days and while it may be easy to point at the Call Of Duty WW2 season pass and say it is Activision being greedy, we do not actually think that it is.
The other day we covered how the first DLC for Call Of Duty WWII is called the Resistance Pack and it is offering a whole lot of content including new maps, a new War Mode scenario and much more. It is a great way that you can have some extra fun with this year’s Cal Of Duty game.
We think that before you pass it off as just a cash grab, think about how much you like Call Of Duty WWII and if you do really like the game, what harm is there in paying a little bit more to get content throughout the next year? The season pass actually gets you four new packs (including January’s Resistance Pack) and each one is bound to feature similar content so you are actually getting quite a lot of content for your money.
If you bought Call Of Duty WWII, beat the campaign, dabbled a little bit in the multiplayer and have not really touched it for a couple of weeks, the season pass is not for you. But if you still find yourself firing up the game a few times a week, maybe even daily. You will certainly feel that the Call Of Duty WWII season pass is giving you very good value for money.
Does Call Of Duty WWII Nazi Zombies Prove This Mode Needs Its Own Game?
It is pretty crazy to think of how basic the very first Call Of Duty Zombies mode was. Call Of Duty World At War basically saw you just defending your area from hordes of the undead. While this kind of gameplay mechanic has stuck with the series. It has progressed so much that many of us are looking as forward to the next installment of Call Of Duty Zombies as we are the full Call Of Duty game.
As you know, Call Of Duty WWII has Nazi Zombies and while I loved the campy and tongue in cheek style of Zombies In Space Land and the other expansions that were part of Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare. Call Of Duty WWII Nazi Zombies is perhaps the largest zombies mode in terms of its scope. The story is awesome, kind of like something you would actually see in a horror movie. Clearly, a ton of time was put into Nazi Zombies and I, along with many other people. Got more out of that story than the single player campaign that Call Of Duty WWII offered.
I think that it very well could be time for Call Of Duty Zombies to branch out and become its very own series. Some people may not be happy that a mode which was once a free addition to the main series is now its own thing. But if they went all out and stacked it with a really in depth story and other game modes. I feel that Call Of Duty Zombies could very well be its own franchise.
