    This looks like an interesting game. It already has a pretty big following. A small development team started a kickstarter and reached their goal within a few days -- currently at 3x's their original goal.

    The animation you see in the video is basically a rough draft. With the funds they will now re-do/smooth the movements. Using the Unreal-4 engine, this will look amazing. Inch by inch authenticity of real battlefields and weaponry. WW2 games is something a lot of people have been asking for - Battlefield/Tom Clancy/etc. are meh.

    COD has run its course IMO. Every game is the same, only re-skinned. Hopefully this will jolt the interest in FPS again.

    Dragged out the PS3 and played some Angry Birds with my daughter last night. SHit, you guys are turning me into a nerd just being on here with you!

    Nerds don't play Angry Birds. Apparently you're turning into a little girl?

    How about candy crush, do you play that?

    Been playing a weeaboo dungeon crawler for the Vita lately: Stranger of Sword City



    I'm about 7 hours in; it's a lot of fun, with a couple of nice mechanics to make the process of grinding dungeons interesting. Good art, too.

    I haven't played FPS games since Counter Strike, but I would play this for PC.

    BO3 certainly got old quick.

    Infinite Warfare looks like BO3/Advanced Warfare re-skinned.

    COD4 remastered will be the best COD game since BO1. I personally can't wait for this.

    Open beta may 5-9

    Haven't played it, not sure if I'll download it. Who am I kidding, I'm sure I will!

    This game does look very "TFC" or "TF2". But I love those games and who cares if it's a similar idea.

    Tracer seems cool. I like characters like that, quick, agile, not very strong but tricky and clever.


    Then my second favorite is always the sniper. Calm, patient, deadly.... 1 shot 1 kill.

    I just looked. You have to buy Advanced Warfare's deluxe bullshit in order to get the remastered version of COD4.

    Oh snap, just started up battle.net to install the files and it looks like the beta is already active. So I'm going to give this a try in a few minutes when the install is done.
