The Gaming Vault writes: Nobody can be told what Call of Duty: Elite is – you have to see it for yourself. Well, no, that’s not true – but it certainly will help to hear about Activision’s latest expansion to the Call of Duty franchise from somebody who got to see, play with and fiddle with it – which is why I’m here.
Before showing us the full demo of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Activision ushered us into a room heavily decorated with Call of Duty: Elite logos so it could be explained to us what Elite, internally codenamed ‘Project Beachhead’, is all about.
A variety of new updates are available this month across the gaming platforms. Coming today, Retro Classics games are available to play for Xbox Game Pass members. Players who stream on the Xbox app on PC now have an additional streaming option with GeForce Now. Game Bar introduces quick settings, visual updates for Widgets in Compact Mode, and coming soon, Microsoft Edge Game Assist, an in-game browser that brings an immersive game-centric experience to Edge. And Xbox gift cards can now be redeemed for any amount via Xbox Rewards.
While i appreciate the gesture.... all of these retro classics have been made available everywhere else. I am hoping to see some other Activision properties make their way out of the shackles of the 5th, 6th and 7th gen. Licensing be damned... bring back the Transformers Cybertron games.
Metaphor on Gamepass just announced! O.o
Seriously, this is the best generation of Xbox ever!!!
We can´t catch a freaking break from awesome games arriving all the time!!!
According to a developer working on the title, Activision is working on a narrative-based open-world game based on a new engine through its new studio.
It was recently revealed in an exclusive episode of the 'Grit' podcast that EA once passed up acquiring Blizzard, Activision, and Call of Duty.
Only a big company that has interest in gaming like Microsoft or Tencent could have acquired Activision. Extremely low interest rates at that time certainly helped.
Not exactly sure that a merger with EA would’ve benefited any of their franchises or gamers. I imagine it would’ve been like the activision blizzard one were each publisher retains their own identity. So Activison-Blizzard-EA. But who knows.
If it was owned by EA, COD could’ve disappeared a looong time ago. They have no clue how to manage franchises.

Activision is going all out with this. I don't see how any game at the moment, outside of Halo can compete with this. I wonder if any Bungie guys are working on this since they have signed on to Activision for the next ten years.
I know people hate paying for anything gaming related but having people on stand-by and monitoring all this is not cheap. I wonder what the price point will be...that's the million dollar question???
Looking a lot like the Steam interface. Except, you know, for not free.
doesn't seem that great to me... gamebattles.com is all you need
Its...Its...Bullshit !
This is such trash. Offering private clan support for a fee when every other game does it free. Oh we'll offer you weapon stats when.... every game does it free.... Keep your game Activision. I'll stick with any other title that doesn't charge me for crap that should be free.
