Homefront publisher THQ is already planning a sequel to Kaos' shooter as well as downloadable content continuing the plot--before the original even has a release date. The game--scripted by Red Dawn creator John Milius--will only tell part of a larger tale of North Korea's near-future invasion of the USA, THQ Core Games executive VP Danny Bilson said in an investor presentation attended by GameSpot, which will be expanded through an online promotional campaign and downloadable content. "This is about a guy moving some fuel," said Bilson. "That's what the single-player is about, to restart some vehicles and retake the Golden Gate Bridge. It's the beginning of a story. We're going to tell this like a serial, with cliff-hangers. And then we intend to continue the story in [downloadable content], until we go to Homefront 2." "People say, 'Why are you going into this Call of Duty space?' And it's because I know we can compete," he enthused. I know we can compete." Homefront will hit PC, Xbox 360 and playstation when it arrives at a time yet unknown. THQ revealed in April that a sequel was already pencilled into the calendar for Vigil Games Darksiders, a full nine months ahead of the post-Apocalyptic action adventures upcoming January 5 release for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. For a quick blast of red-bashing, check out this trailer released several months back. Check out the Images of HomeFront

It just seems more and more problems have been deriving out of Infinity Ward’s decision to neglect dedicated server support and their last minute plan P2P announcement with IW.net. Gamers has been complaining that IW.net leads to threats from termination from their ISPs for “running servers on their home connection” and “excessive fileshare through peer to peer connections.” I am by no means an ISP security expert but I believe you have got to spend a whole lot of time playing to bring up that red flag.

Far Cry 3 is in development and looking "pretty exciting", an Ubisoft scriptwriter has told Official PlayStation Magazine. Speaking at a recent Avatar junket, OPM asked Ubisoft scribe Kevin Shortt if he was working on a third Far Cry title and instead of the usual "no comment", the mag received a refreshing response... "No I'm not," he replied honestly. "But I know the team are and what I've seen looks pretty exciting." Far Cry 3 confirmed then, just like that. Other than that blatant response, it's mostly guess work so far on what we should expect from Far Cry 3. Last year though narrative designer Patrick Redding did mention that a sequel would likely retain an African setting, though he also mentioned Antarctica as a possibility. It's also probable the third game will be based around an improved version of the Dunia engine, OPM points out, which was specifically built to handle complex real-world physics within a sandbox environment.

Public Enemy recently blogged about Modern Warfare's 2 inability to recreate Cod4's monumental gaming achievement and how Battlefield: Bad Company 2 could possibly overtake Modern Warfare's crown. "Modern Warfare 2 has been in the hands of the gaming masses for a few days and already gamers are looking to get their next FPS fix. With no dedicated servers on the PC, PS3 servers crashing, and some calling the game a $60 DLC pack, it seems Infinity Ward might have dropped the ball with MW2. Fear not, because for once it looks like EA (yes, that EA) is coming to the rescue with Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Modern Warfare 2 is Out, Bad Company 2 is In On November 6, 2007 Infinity Ward launched what is now the most popular first person shooter in the history of this young industry, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The game was released with little fanfare compared to other high profile titles, such as Halo 3 and Gears of War. Read the rest...

It looks like DICE has been working with ATI and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will officially support DirectX 11. AMD just sent over a list of DirectX 11 game titles and when their expected release dates are going to be. It looks like DirectX 11 is finally starting to pick up some speed, which is great news for ATI Radeon HD 5000 video card series owners as you have a card supporting DX11. A new name has appeared on the DX11 game list and that would be Battlefield: Bad Company 2! This is a big title game, so that should help boost sales for AMD. DiRT 2 is coming out on December 1st, so it looks like DirectX 11 is about to get a shot in the arm with these major game titles. NVIDIA's GT300 'Fermi' graphics solution for DirectX 11 is missing in action and is rumored to not be coming out in volume until April 2010. If that is the case AMD has a six month head start on DX11! DICE Rendering Architect, Johan Andersson also confirmed this on twitter. Yes AMD are correct, we are working together on DX11 benefits for BFBC2 in Frostbite 1. Frostbite 2 is our future DX11+ engine ATI had this to say: DirectX 11 is a key feature of Windows 7 and is important for two key reasons: it helps consumers experience better performing games and faster computing. To do this, DirectX 11 brings several new features which collectively improve the graphic fidelity of games and 3D applications while also enhancing the ability of the CPU and GPU to work together more efficiently. This in turn will allow end-users to potentially realize significant increases in performance as application developers harness the power of tessellation, multi-threading and compute shader technology, three key new features of DirectX 11.

According to a post on gaming blog Hellforge, Infinity Ward's new shooter Modern Warfare 2 has been recalled in Russia on the grounds of objectional content. The "No Russian" mission during the single-player campaign has gained notoriety in the media for being excessively violent and controversial, and was apparently the impetus for the recall.

It didn't take long, but the "tweakers" did it. Over at Destructoid.com there's an article on the whole thing. Take away what the PC gamers want, and they will most likely make it themselves. It is rather interesting, this is the second "crack/hack" to come out for MW2 on the PC, the first of which was the unlocking of the "console" for use in game.

Recently spoke with Executive Producer Karl-Magnus Troedsson about his thoughts on Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield Bad Company 2. Read what he had to say. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 isn't just the biggest video game launch in history, it's the biggest launch across all forms of entertainment, beating out the likes of Harry Potter books, The Dark Knight and band 'N Sync. But at least one other military video game has their sights set on the popular first-person shooter, getting a bit of added traction thanks to some controversial design decisions made in the Activision blockbuster.
