Snipers... you either love em or hate em, either way there is no argument that they can be deadly. A 50 kal to the melon would not be pleasant, so best stay low... Check out how to deal with those pesky snipers in Battlefield 3 below in the latest trailer - it looks almost like a training video for Afghanistan. Say hello to my lil friend... Boom!

GTA V in the works? Looks that way!!

Well now kiddies, we have L.A Noir coming from Rockstar and we know the spy game 'Agent' is on the cards, there's even a rumour of a Bully 2 being made but what we all really, really want to know is when the fuck is Grand Theft Auto 5 coming?!?! Well there have been a few interesting requests by Rockstar games for some odd domain names and copyright patents. For instance Take-Two and Rockstar have bought the domain names - CashForDeadDreams.com - SixFigureTemps.com - StopPayingYourMortgage.net - HammersteinFaust.com and LifeInvader.com - Could these be for some of the wacky in game sites and companies? Its a strong possibility... Add to this that take two have put out casting calls for a game set in the Los Angeles area (not L.A Noir) with the codename of 'Rush' and the plot is thickening. You can see the list of characters below and their descriptions which really look like a GTA styled bunch of fuckups, so I recon its safe to say that this will become more than a rumour quite soon. We'll keep ya posted if theres any more on this but for now just keep hopping heads off the bonnet in GTA4. I really want it to be true. Not that I'm in a Rush or anything... da-dum... aww forget it!

Call of Duty - Black Ops - Berlin Wall trailer - Funny shit!

This is just genius and a must watch!! Its the Berlin wall trailer for the PS3 First Strike maps... and it rocks. It sooo 80's. Watch out for the white dove who learns a lesson about shitting on soldiers and the Scorpions soundtrack is just cheesy in the best possible way - love it! Gotta hand it to Treyarch, they may not be quite as slick as Infinity ward but man they are way funnier!!! Nice one lads! Enjoy. Now... where did I leave that air guitar, hmm...


L.A Noir - New Trailer. Someone call the cops - were being screwed again!

Ok Dick, get out your privates... er I mean - Ok Private Dick, get out your gun... Its time for some crime solving and I don't meant in the game! Check out the latest L.A Noir trailer 'The Naked City - Vice Case" below. Its fast and and it doesn't reveal a whole lot but it still looks cool! This is basically to be one single crime case or mission, which will come in the form of free DLC... Dont get too happy though cos unfortunately its a gamestop only pre-order bonus - which is the biggest crime of all!! Personally I think someone should be shot for that decision, I mean what if Game or HMV or whomever decides to have a different 'mission' dlc as an exclusive?? Do we have to buy a copy at each store just to play the extra stuff? Arg! Wheres my gun... I'm gonna commit a murder!

Battlefield 3 - You're in Good Company!

Check out below, some of the first gameplay footage for the oncoming Battlefield 3 - now kiddies, that's not to be confused with the 'Bad Company' Battlefield games, this is a step back to the real BF daddy from the PC days. It looks very realistic and quite immersing, that said so did the new Medal of Honour at this stage... hopefully EA have learned a few lessons since then. It will have single player, co-op and of course multi player modes. As a US marine, single player will have you in different world locations such as Paris, Tehran and New York... so pack your aftershave. It's boasting up to 64 online players on the PC which is cool and is set to come out this Autumn. Now the only question left to ask is... What is Activision going to do? Hmm...
