Today Via Twitter, Mark Rubin from Infinity Ward, the Studio Behind Call of Duty: Ghosts, has cleared the air about resolutions on the two next gen consoles. According to Rubin, the PS4 will run native 1080p and the Xbox One will be native 720p upscaled to 1080p.
Hey, been on the road last couple weeks so haven’t had a chance to update, but wanted to confirm that for Xbox One we’re 1080p upscaled from 720p. And, we’re native 1080p on PS4. We optimized each console to hit 60 FPS and the game looks great on both. Still on the road, but glad to see the great reception to Extinction. Can’t wait for next week’s launch.
So there we have it, finally an answer to all the questions that have been swirling around in the media these last few weeks.

Activision has announced a new 4 player, co-op game mode for Call of Duty: Ghosts, called Extinction. Extinction seems to be a base building, scavenging, class leveling mode, kind of a new spin on the current Zombie Mode offered in the Call Of Duty Games. Take a look at the trailer below for a quick peak at this new mode.
Call of Duty: Ghosts is set to be released Nov 5 for PC, Wii U, PS3 and Xbox 360, PS4 and Xbox One to follow.

So our friends over at SteelSeries are just about to release their newest headset, the 9H.
The 9H features three different Dolby® technologies, a double enclosure design, SteelSeries signature retractable microphone, and a swappable cable system to allow for cross platform usage on PC, Mac, handheld consoles or tablets and smartphones. The 9H also features thick leather ear cups for extended use comfort, during those long gaming sessions. Like all of SteelSeries Products, the 9H was designed alongside professional gamers to create the most balanced and linear tournament-grade soundscape. To get a better idea of how they did this take a look at this video below
I had a chance to get some hands on time with this headset at PAX, and I have got to say, what a sweet, sweet headset. They are very comfortable, and fit very nice on the head, I could easily see gaming in them for long periods of time. The sound quality from them was honesty jaw dropping. I never expected a pair of gaming headphones to sound so good. I didn’t get an opportunity to test the Dolby® Technologies in them, but here is hoping I can get my hands on a pair and see how they sound for you guys. I really liked the style, it is a lot more low key then a lot of gaming headsets and with the retractable Mic I could definitely see myself using them outside of the house. The swappable cable system has in line controls, but also can be disconnected on the go for a more streamlined “on the go” headset. Honestly I will be following this closely and I would highly recommend if you are in the market for a new pair of headphones to give the 9H a look.
Equipped with an advanced USB soundcard, the SteelSeries 9H provides users with Dolby® Technology that works together to create incredible sound:
· Dolby Digital – reproduces multichannel audio to deliver a cinematic audio experience
· Dolby Headphone – allows up to 7.1 channels of realistic multi-channel surround sound
· Dolby Prologic IIx – provides the smoothest surround sound experience allowing for multiple listening modes and a more realistic sound
The 9H is up for preorder from SteelSeries as well as other fine electronics retailers for 159$. For more information you can head over to SteelSeries.

Lets face it, the chances of us getting a new X-Wing VS Tie-Fighter game is slim to non. But have no fear my friends, as Nine Dots Studio are working on a squad based, competitive, space combat simulator. This is a game where you customize a ship, and then you and your squad go out there, shoot down enemy ships, and attempt to blow up their carrier. Seriously, check out some early footage of that dogfighting action below.
And just to show off how far this talented studio has come, here is the video they were showing off at PAX (along with being able to play the beta) I gotta say, I played a bit of this at PAX myself, and I was highly impressed, the game plays great, it looks fantastic, and really managed to scratch that space combat itch that has been SORELY missing in the gaming landscape of late.
Now if you think that this is something you are interested in playing, I urge you to get over to their Kickstarter HERE, and help them reach their goal. They have less then 48 hours left, and so if you have been yearning for a new X-Wing VS Tie Fighter, get in there and help em out, as this is definitely the closest you are gunna get, at least for now.

The sequel to Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords, Galactic Civilizations 3 is going to be a 64-bit PC exclusive, being make by Stardock. Kind if like a Civilization game set in space, Galactic Civilizations are huge, turn-based strategy games. This new one promises to be a huge leap forward, not only in the visual department, but also in the gameplay department as well. With new multiplayer, diplomacy, and many different terrain changes, this is looking to be one very large game.
By going 64-bit only, Stardock states “We want Galactic Civilizations III, and future expansions, to be able to handle extremely large galaxies with a very high resolution graphics and large data sets for the computer AI to make use of. It allows us to design the best game possible without being constrained by the limitations of older hardware.”
Take a look at the Trailer below
It is still very early in development, so no release date has been announced, But Stardock does have a founders program in place that allows you access to the beta, as well as some other perks if you invest 10$ now. You can get more info on the game as well as the founders program from their website.
