We were really surprised to see Activision announce an HD update of GoldenEye for the PlayStation 3 this week, but according to Activision the release was always planned

Producer James Steer revealed to Kotaku that GoldenEye 007: Reloaded was being worked on "in the background" while the Wii version was in development. “This was working in the background the whole time while they were..

Licence to... oh, never mind

After the announcement of GoldenEye 007: Reloaded we've now got the first screenshots and in-game footage from the upcoming Bond-a-thon. The revamped version of last year's Wii adventure comes with support for PlayStation Move, Sharp Shooter and in a surprise turn of events the Top Shot Elite gun used in Cabela's...

We don't know if you've heard: there's a war on

EA and Activision each want to dominate the first-person shooter pie, and that means Battlefield 3 and Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 are preparing for a head-on collision later this year. It's a ballsy move from EA given Call Of Duty's mainstream popularity, but it's a battle that's thus far been fairly evenly matched. Battlefield 3's obviously..

Activision's kicked off Comic-Con with a slew of North American release date announcements

Prototype 2 was the first to get a date, with the distant April 24th, 2012 being the target. Next up was Silicon Knights' X-Men Destiny, a game that, admittedly, we've seen very little of. That game's scored a September 27th release date. Finally, Activision attached an October 4th release date to the..

We've been expecting you

Last year's GoldenEye 007 on Wii was a particularly enjoyable slice of James Bond action, bringing the beloved N64 original up to date with online play, experience and all that good stuff. If you were looking on from the sidelines, filled with jealousy, that can stop soon: Activision has announced GoldenEye 007: Reloaded is...

As we suspected when details about the game leaked yesterday, Activision has officially confirmed GoldenEye 007: Reloaded for the PlayStation 3 this afternoon

The title is an HD remake of last year's Wii-exclusive GoldenEye, err, redux. Yeah, we're trying hard to get our heads around that too. See, last year's GoldenEye 007 (for Wii) was a complete reimagining of Rare's original movie block-buster..

We love James Bond video games

We've spent countless hours with both Quantum Of Solace and Blood Stone on PS3, despite poor review scores and a general sense of ambivalence towards the games. So we're super excited to learn that last year's Wii exclusive GoldenEye reboot could be coming to the PlayStation 3 in high-definition. The rumours first emerged late last month when a bunch of domain..

With each iteration of Call Of Duty, the console market grows

There are no shortage of people picking up PlayStation 3s and XBOX 360s, and so it's no surprise to see the Call Of Duty fanbase grow with each release. According to UK retailer GAME, this year's Modern Warfare 3 is set to break the myriad records set by last year's Call Of Duty: Black Ops. "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 pre-orders..

Remember when we jokingly reported about ModernWarfare3

com</a>? The popular URL was snapped up by a Battlefield fan, and comically redirected to the official Battlefield website. Naturally Activision's not too happy about this. The publisher has filed a $2600 complaint against the domain to the Nation Arbitration Forum, demanding that the name be transferred to them. To add to the drama,..

Activision's slapped a big fat July 28th release date on the third Call Of Duty: Black Ops expansion pack for PS3

Like all Call Of Duty packs, Annihilation includes four new maps and a brand new zombie arena. There's more information on the PlayStation Blog.

Activision's not been keeping on top of its website domains

The URL for ModernWarfare3.com takes you to Battlefield 3's homepage. Given that both titles are currently engaged in a deadly war to the grave, that's pretty funny. The website was registered by an anonymous owner in the US. We suspect it's the work of a long-time Battlefield fan, rather than a sinister EA marketing plan. Hilariously,..

We never hate James Bond games

While there are good examples of Bond games, and bad examples of Bond games, we usually end up enjoying them regardless of their quality. Perhaps it's because we love the franchise in general, but we've had love affairs with both Quantum Of Solace and Blood Stone already this generation — both of which were panned by critics. So, are we ready for more James Bond?..

Activision gaffer, Bobby Kotick, has said that his company is "super excited" about the PlayStation Vita, but remains unsure about the device's target audience

Because we're all supposed to be playing Angry Birds these days, remember. That's right, Kotick brought up the old "bu-bu-but smart-phones" as a cautionary statement about Vita, despite the exec thinking the gizmo is actually..

Those animals just aren't staying dead

Having conquered the wild beasts in Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2011, budding hunters will get the chance to shoot some more animals in Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2012, out this September. Using PlayStation Move or the Top Shot Elite gun that came packaged with the previous release, players can engage in new...

According to VG247, the rumoured Call Of Duty: Black Ops limited edition is legitimate, and will include a free download voucher for the game's First Strike DLC pack

GameStop outed the limited edition yesterday.

If you're one of the remaining ten people that doesn't yet own a copy of Call Of Duty: Black Ops -- you're in luck

According to GameStop, a new bundle will be made available next week including the game and some DLC. No word on exactly what DLC will be included, but we're assuming it will be the first two packs currently available on the PlayStation Store. Activision's yet to officially confirm the..

Activision's officially announced a third DLC pack for Treyarch's Call Of Duty: Black Ops this afternoon

The pack, entitled "Annihilation", will launch first on XBOX 360 at the end of the month, and then later on PlayStation 3. It includes four new maps and a new co-operative zombie stage. One of the maps is a golf course, which is pretty awesome. Check out the trailer after the jump.

Not had enough Call Of Duty: Black Ops yet? This supposed leaked leaflet from GameStop has your back, supposedly revealing a third DLC pack for Activision's blockbuster first-person shooter

Despite being a blurry image, the leaflet seems to reveal a number of new maps including: Hangar 18, Hazard, Drive-In, Silo, and a new co-operative zombies mission. Take this with a pinch of salt as it could be..

Calling all, erm, Call Of Duty: Black Ops players: Activision's just let us know that the "Escalation" DLC pack is now available from the PlayStation Store

The DLC boasts several new maps in addition to that special grindhouse co-op mode featuring performances from Sarah Michelle-Gellar and Danny Trejo. It will set you back $14.99. Go-go-go, soldier.
