LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Everything I Learned About Call of Duty: Ghosts Last Week
I wasn't allowed to talk about the new Infinity Ward game last week when I met with Activision, and I don't have much to say now that Xbox One spilled the beans.

Before Microsoft and Sony do something regarding their future in the video game business, I wanted to write, and I've wanted it for a long time now, but other things kept getting in my way, and fearing that tomorrow might be too late, today will have to do.  ...

DAILY MANIFESTO

This Black Ops Kill Is Representative of Retail Sales

Posted on Thursday, November 11 @ 20:10:57 Eastern by
If you were looking for a visual representation of Call of Duty: Black Ops Day 1 sales, I think this off-the-wall, off-the-ground tomahawk kill has you covered.

Activision announced day one sales figures for the latest Call of Duty and the numbers are... big. Last year's Modern Warfare 2 made $310 Mil with 4.7 Million copies sold in the first day.

Black Ops has made $360 Million in its first day by moving 5.6 Million copies.

Bobby Kotick had this to say:

“There has never been another entertainment franchise that has set opening day records for two consecutive years and we are on track to outperform last year’s five-day global sales record of $550 million.”

If you aren't impressed by those numbers, maybe you'll be just as bored by this insane kill.



Wat.

    Tops the knife throw from MW2. Not bad, but it doesn't make me want the game.

    I hate throwing knives and I hate stopping power. I don't want to buy Black Ops because I'm afraid I'll be killed in some fantastically asinine way every 5 seconds.

    Thanks Dan. Good to know that. But still, remote control bomb car and knife gun are not welcome.

    Yeah, this was pretty cool, but this was pure luck same with the other vid. I'm actually pretty good with the throwing knifes.

    Daniel - Even though the RC is awesome, I still love the one-two punch of the Spy Plane/Counter Spy Plane tomfoolery. Mucho.
