Current gen and PC only… No past weapon integrations etc. A completely new game for the better hardware....

As spotted by the Call of Duty insiders at Charlie Intel, Infinity Ward recently posted an ad for a narrative director who will be contributing to the “game story, characters, lore, and world-building” of an “open-world RPG.” The job ad has since been yanked down, but the Internet never forgets… — CharlieIntel (@charlieINTEL) June 12, 2022 Huh!

Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter removed much of the raison d’être for Trump’s Truth Social platform, as illustrated by the floundering share price of Digital World Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:DWAC), a SPAC that is slated to take the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) public via a reverse merger. However, recent reports that Trump is about to formally announce his candidature for the 2024 US Presidential elections seem to have revived the bullish spirits in the SPAC’s shares, which serve as a proxy for TMTG and its Truth Social platform in the pre-merger phase....

Almost all of the benchmarks shared by the manufacturer included the new DLSS 3 technology, and the few that didn’t showed performance improvements over the GeForce RTX 3000 Series that were more in line with what we have come to expect from a new generation of graphics cards. Now that the GeForce RTX 4090, the flagship GPU (at least until the inevitable Ti model) and also the first from the brand new Ada Lovelace architecture to launch, has been in reviewers’ hands for a while, we’ve been able to verify just how much DLSS 3 supercharges performance....

While it is not the main focus of their experiences, PvP has always been an important part of all entries in the Souls series, and the same is true for Elden Ring, although changes to the invasion mechanics over the previous games have made it difficult for die-hard PvPer to have actual duels with other players. The introduction of the three Colosseums, and with them three new PvP modes, finally allows these players to duel to their heart’s content, as the Royal Capital Colosseum grants access to the Duel mode, a simple one versus one mode where players can fight against another without distraction....

A SpaceX filing with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) made last month has revealed that while the company’s founder and chief executive officer Mr. Elon Musk saw his ownership percentage slightly decrease over the course of the year, he still managed to increase his voting control for the company’s stock.

Last week, the Embracer Group announced another acquisition spree. One of the most notable acquisitions – Middle-Earth Enterprises and the game adaption rights to the Lords of the Rings and The Hobbit Ips. As expected, Embracer and its investors talked about this deal (which, from the looks of it, is an absolute steal for the Swedish holding group), and based on the reactions during the company’s most recent earnings call, everyone is more than excited about this acquisition, which includes the rights to video games, board games, tabletop games, film rights, stage production rights, and more (the book publication rights remain with Tolkien Estate)....
