"Activision's E3 2007 press conference was full of interesting announcements. There's a chance, however, that you don't remember many of those announcements. In fact, there's a huge chance that the only parts of Activision's conference you remember is the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare part and the host Jamie Kennedy intoxicated.
Kennedy was all over the place, literally. Stumbling around the stage looking for the teleprompter that was in-front of him the whole time, Kennedy's poor choice of jokes, awkward moments, being called out by the audience, and even made fun of by one of the developers on stage, Activision's E3 2007 event was one that even the publishing giant itself was trying not to look at -- presumably.
Four years later, it seems as though Kennedy hasn't gotten over the incident. Over on Twitter, the comedian lashed out at Michael Pachter and former Editor-in-Chief of PC Gamer Gary Whitta after they began discussing who out of Mr. Caffeine --from Ubisoft's E3 conference this year-- and Jamie Kennedy was the worst E3 host of all time (Jamie Kennedy's Tweets have been left unedited)."
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.
Love the Cybertron games! TF games have been shit lately. Would love to see that era revisited. I even did the multiplayer!
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!!!
It’s a HELL of a game. If you like JRPGs in the family of Persona, you will be in heaven… that is until you hear the various battle music…. then you’ll be somewhere BEYOND heaven!
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.
It's a shame EA didn't buy them then, COD should die, it's past its prime and has been since black ops 2, I started playing it when cod 4 mw first came out and it has been downhill since.
So those are the makers of COD. Good to know.
Wtf i thought they had monkeys working over at Activision since most of their games are crappy :D???
Nothing wrong with having to get drunk to build up some courage.......just not too drunk.
Mr Cocaine Was Worse. Doodly Doodly Doo
It was ages ago. I would have just been like
"lol Yeah that was me XDDD"
and move on. But I guess since he is famous and all... hm.
