A New Medal of Honor Could Arrive by the End of 2010
The Second World War has been the Holy Grail of first-person shooters for some time now. It might have started well before it, but a big series that has stuck to its guns and has remained strictly in this time period is Medal of Honor. Before Call of Duty and its infinite regeneration came into play, Medal of Honor was the undisputed king of World War 2 first-person shooters. The game had a solid single-player campaign, with competitive graphics and and an immersive gameplay. The multiplayer section wasn't glorious, but it did its job well enough.
But it seems like Electronic Arts started too slowly, put the game aside and no news of any Medals have been heard in over two years. But with the financial pinch the company finds itself in, it seems like it is willing to remember one of its older franchises and try to instill some new money-making life into it. As such, a new Medal of Honor game could be popping up from around the corner anytime now.

Nintendo Wii reclaims top sales position during October
Sony's introduction of the $300 PlayStation 3 Slim landed it a top spot in September's console sales, ousting the Wii. Things have turned around for Nintendo, though, as the Wii reclaimed the number one sales position last month, according to research conducted by NPD.
During October, the Nintendo moved 506,900 Wii consoles (up from 462,800 in September), and 457,600 DS handhelds (down from 524,000). Sony trailed, shipping 320,600 PlayStation 3 units (down from 491,800), and Microsoft sold some 249,700 Xbox 360s (down from 352,600). Sony also managed to sell 174,600 PlayStation Portables (down from 190,400), and 117,800 PlayStation 2s (down from 146,000).
In all, year-to-date sales for January through October are down 10% over the same period in 2008, with only the Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS seeing an increase. NPD notes that falling hardware sales accounts for a bulk of the game industry's 19% revenue decline from October 2008. Hardware-related revenue for the year is at $380.74 million, down 23% from $496.96 million last year.

New DX11 Games
Here Are New DirectX 11 Games
Curious to see which games will support the latest in PC graphics wizardry, DirectX 11? There's no better place to look than this list provided by AMD.
Most are games (including Battlefield: Bad Company 2), but as you can see, a few towards the end are just for engines, meaning we can expect future games - whatever they may be from DICE or anyone using the Trinigy engine - to support the new tech.

Here's the link for the CORE-X video made by Blur studios *www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYkXsTSwbD4
After the development of Crysis game started, Crytek needed a benchmark video so that they could know what is the height of graphics they can reach, so they requested Blur studios (guys behind -terminator salvation), to use all the latest technologies available to make the video look as real as possible. Then two years later Crytek surpassed the Core-X video's visuals...anyway fck the guy who uploaded the video on youtube with crysys 2's gameplay name on it!! X-(

UBI's New achievement system, Uplay
Only three big companies have their own trophies and achievements system(Microsoft, Sony, ValvE). UBI jonies the party with it's Uplay.
In addition to bragging rights, gamers who complete Uplay tasks (for example, discovering the Assassin's Tomb in the publisher's recently released sequel) will earn points that can be redeemed for a variety of downloadable goodies. Currently Assassin's Creed II is the only Uplay-compatible game, although the upcoming Splinter Cell: Conviction and R.U.S.E. will also support the service.
Each game has four achievements worth a total of 100 points to earn and four corresponding rewards to unlock. At 10 points, gamers can get free wallpaper (PC edition) or themes (Xbox 360 and PS3), with 20 points netting Assassin's Creed II players an expanded in-game knife belt. For 30 points, gamers can swap out protagonist Ezio's duds for those of the first game's protagonist, Altair. And at 40 points, players can unlock access to Ezio's family crypt in Assassin's Creed II, though it's unclear what it holds (beyond Ezio's family, of course).
Conviction's rewards include an extra weapon, multiplayer skin, and multiplayer game mode, while R.U.S.E. will offer players downloadable unlocks for an exclusive tank upgrade, and a new single-player map. Uplay will also serve to give gamers hints and cheats for Ubisoft games and offer social functions including forums and leaderboards.

COD gets third developer
ccording to a report in today's Los Angeles Times, the publisher has now enlisted a third studio to help out in development of the Call of Duty series. Until now, Activision had a two-studio system that assured annual installments of Call of Duty. Currently, the series' creator, Infinity Ward, is focusing on the Modern Warfare branch of the franchise, which explores fictional near-future conflicts with cutting-edge technology. The second studio, Treyarch, had been focusing on World War II games, although it has since said it has finished with the conflict in the face of rumors that next year's title will be set during the Cold War.
What exactly the third Call of Duty studio will be working on remains a mystery. The Times did not name the shop and Activision had not responded to requests for identification as of press time
Delay Of Little Big Planet PSP Digital Release Due To Technical 'Hiccups'
Little Big Planet is now available, but you won't be able to find it in the PlayStation Store. Apparently the release has suffered a few "hiccups," which has prevented it from making its way it online for the time being.
"We are aware that the game is not yet available on the PlayStation Store, but we're currently working around the clock to get this issue worked out so keep your eyes peeled for updates this week. We appreciate you bearing with us!" Senior Producer Mark Green wrote on the PlayStation Blog.
He also briefly discussed the challenges the team faced when it came to implementing the game's physics, as well as the game's 38 new levels
Nintendo Showing Vitality Sensor, Compatible Games at E3 2010
No doubt the biggest what-the-hell moment of E3 2009 was the reveal of Nintendo's Wii Vitality Sensor, a device that will read a players pulse to... well, we're still not sure, because Nintendo didn't give many details. And now it appears it'll be exactly one year later when those details will finally be filled in: Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime said they plan to show off the device at E3 next year, along with the first compatible games.
*media.1up.com/media/03/7/7/1/lg/429.jpg
"We will show off the Vitality Sensor with software [at the show]," Fils-Aime succinctly said to Kotaku. "I'm not going to give you any more hints beyond that." This seems to suggest their original intention to release the device "not too late in the next year," according to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata back in August, is probably no longer the case.
