The date is November 13, 2012. Another year has come and gone. The leaves are turning brown; the air is getting crisp and the temperature lowering. Children frolic in the yards; birds migrate south and gamers everywhere wait in line for hours to get their hands on another installment in the Call of Duty franchise. What’s Call of Duty you ask?

Hundreds of millions of dollars pour into Activision’s bank account as they clap and laugh their way to vacation.
In addition to the roughly 100 job cuts IGN reported earlier today at Respawn Entertainment, EA has made wider cuts across its organization today, impacting around 300 individuals total including those already reported at Respawn.
Absolutely insane. Man I'm hope they land on their feet EA needs to get the shit together badly....
This is why this industry has slow releases and none compelling games.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor & Fallen Order are now playable on Amazon Luna thanks to a new multi-year deal with EA. Cloud gaming just leveled up.
Sadly just if you subscribe to Luna it appears. I hooked my EA account into it, which has Jedi Survivor, and it doesn't show in my Library. They don't show as a source either, so just a heads up to not let your purchasing decision be swayed as to where you pick the titles up if a bonus streaming option held any interest.
Call of Duty 2025 is heavily rumored to feature a ton of positives for the Zombies mode including 6 maps and the Grief mode! Dive in.
