The sequel to Call of Duty: Black Ops was pretty much expected, especially if you happen to be a fan of the series. What was unknown is the release date of course, but luckily for us some new details have emerge that suggest the release date of 11.13.12, which is right around the corner. In an image posted on IGN, there are two Target Pre-Order cards one for the PS3 and the other for 360 that shed some light on a future game.
Since Black Ops was developed by Treyarch chances are that they are the studio behind this game as well, but I guess we will have to wait and see. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 will be announced on May 1st, 2012 at the NBA playoffs.
In Port Royale 3: Pirates and Merchants, players will embark upon an epic adventure through the Caribbean during the turbulent 17th century where the naval powers of Spain, England, France, and the Netherlands, all fight for supremacy in the colonies. Players take on the role of a young captain trying to build his fortune and reputation in the new world colonies. The campaign consists of two different paths for the young protagonist to follow: adventurer and trader.
Following the path of the adventurer will lead the player on a naval conquest where they must gain notoriety through raids, piracy, bounty hunting, plundering, and conquering cities as they strive to build their new Caribbean empire.
The route of the trader sees the player using their economic know-how to become the most powerful trading tycoon in the New World by setting up trade routes, building production facilities and developing cites.
In free-play mode, the player crafts a combination of the two paths, creating a unique and challenging scenario on the path to increase wealth and power.
Features of Port Royale 3 Pirates and Merchants:
Two different single player campaigns: Adventurer and Trader
Naval battles, raids, plundering and invasions await the Adventurer, while the Trader will develop trade routes and the economy to earn glory, fortune and power
16 different ship types, such as powerful Galleons or versatile Frigates
Organize trade with 60 different cities such as Port-au-Prince or Tortuga
A comprehensive trade system, with supply and demand dynamically setting the price of goods and wares, like in the real world
Those of you that happen to be fans of a little game called Call Of Duty will soon learn that a future COD might be coming our way. It all started with rumors that suggested a Call of Duty: Eclipse, which could in fact be the codename for Black Ops 2. This of course has not been confirmed by either Activision or Treyarch, but if you visit the Call of Duty website you will notice that they have changed the homepage and added the following:

With Call of Duty: Black Ops doing as good as it did, this was something that everyone sort of expected. It would be interesting to find out on May 1st. Keep checking with us as more details come our way. You can also see a screencap below in case that Activision takes it away.
In a statement released this Thursday, Bethesda revealed that the launch of Prey 2 will be delayed. In addition to that, the publisher disputed those rumors that suggested the cancellation of the game, which is developed by Human Head Studios.
“The delay is due to the fact that game development has not progressed satisfactorily this past year, and the game does not currently meet our quality standards,” says Bethesda in a statement. “We have made a substantial investment in game development to deliver the experience fans want. We are determined only to release the AAA game that fans rightfully expect, and are unwilling to compromise our quality standards to meet a release schedule.”
Announced last year, the sci-fi first-person shooter game was speculated for release sometime this year, but after the delay, chances are that it will come out sometime in 2013.
In a recently discovered image found on the official PlayStation’s Facebook page comes news that suggest a possible God of War 4. Take this with a grain of salt, but It reads “Will Vengeance Bring Redemption? 04.19.12.”
This might be Sony’s way of saying that something big could be announced on the suggested date. There is a possible chance that Uncharted 4 get’s announced as well, but chances are that it’s the next God of War game on the PlayStation 3. God of War 3 came out on March of 2010 and this is a series of games that continues to evolve, so it would be interesting to see what Sony Santa Monica studios have to bring to the table.
Be sure to continue checking with us as more details emerge and let’s hope that a trailer comes with this.
