Company of Heroes 2
The official Facebook feed for Company of Heroes has changed it’s picture to Company of Heroes 2 with some Russian text below it. Apparently it translates to Briefing May 7th. One of my favorite games Company of Heroes has stood the test of time. We can only hope the next iteration is as good as the original.
The Elder Scrolls Online Announced
Bethesda has announced just seconds ago that they are working on The Elder Scrolls Online. Details of the new title will be in next months Game informer magazine.
We will have to see how this turns out but I thought The Elder scrolls was doing quite well as a single player game. It was able to do a lot your average cookie cutter MMO was unable to do. What about all the mod support? Most mmo’s don’t let you mod at all. If nothing else this makes Skyrim even more valuable.

If your browsing the web using Firefox there is a new add-on that will record who is watching your movements on the internet. I installed it and it’s interesting what I have found. To install the add-on open Firefox, go to tools, add-ons, in the search box enter collusion. Install the add-on and exit Firefox. When you start it up again it will be active. Once you visit a website the data will be stored locally. Now click the red and white circle in the bottom right part of the browser. The instructions are on the left of the screen. Good luck. Happy surfing.
Activision/Blizzard Cuts 600 jobs after Record Year
Listen to the conference call and you will hear nothing but good news ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1pNf_AimQQ ) . What could be the reason for the lay off is a shift from World of Warcraft subs to console based games because that’s the cash cow of their line up now. Hear it from the source then take a look at up to the minute stock quotes. Press Room Link — ( http://investor.activision.com/releases.cfm ) As of the moment I am writing this the Activision / Blizzard stock has crashed to an all time low. Current A/B Stock activity. —- ( http://www.wikinvest.com/stock/Activision_Blizzard_(ATVI) ) Calender Year profits are almost Five Billion Dollars — ( http://investor.activision.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=647732 ) . I still play World of Warcraft to death and Shandris ( Realm /Server ) is always busy on the weekends for PVP honor battles. The expansion will charge up WoW again and the most profound and complex world online will live on. The real question is…. what will they do to keep up the top dog status.? Will they now put the talent engine focus on consoles ?
Message not the Messenger- Stock Tip
After telling several friends about the fall of Activision / Blizzard stock and the soon to rise stock price I am met with a wall of denial. The single most powerful Game Industry mover and shaker will not stay at the bottom . It is as real as the cage of poverty that most of us live in. Heres a chance to get a piece of the action people I am not crazy. Buy low sell high, take off the blonde wig everybody and cash in.

Steam hacked around 11/10/11
Be aware of this attack and others that can grab your personal data. My humble opinion is that this was done by children because they were obvious about it. A real data thief will hit you and you will have few signs untill it’s too late. Here is the press release from Steam/Valve http://www.valvesoftware.com/news/?id=6761
