Call of Duty: Ghosts looks forward to beating GTA 5’s sales record
Riley is coming for you, Trevor – he’s got your scent. And as for you, Michael, you should keep an eye out for scary men with painted faces and over-designed rifles, hiding behind your shower curtain. Infinity Ward might be fairly laidback about GTA 5’s Call of Duty parody, but publisher Activision has urgent designs on Rockstar’s sales record. “Congratulations to the team at Rockstar for their success,” UK senior brand manager Kevin Flynn told MCV, doubtless while grinning like a shark. “We look forward to getting the record back before the next GTA title.” Is it too much to describe this as a pop at Rockstar’s inability to match Call of Duty’s rate of release?

Thief’s XP System Crossed out After Fan Feedback
Eidos Montreal has more or less confirmed that it’s scrapping Thief’s XP leveling system following negative feedback from the fans. Game Director Nic Cantin and Lead Level Designer Daniel Windfeld Schmidt confirmed that this feature was to be removed in a community Q & A on the studio’s website, and in fact saying that they were “happy” to make the announcement. “At first, we wanted to outline the progression of the player with XP, but it was reducing our motivation to steal,” explained Cantin. “The main goal of a thief should be to gain loot. Garrett is already the Master Thief, so we saw no need to have XP as a core mechanic.” “We wanted to put emphasis on stealing things, and put the rewards on the stealing aspect,̶...

Dead Rising 3 Not to come out in Germany
Dead Rising 3 has been banned from being released in Germany by the Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle. Capcom Vancouver’s Xbox One launch game apparently did not receive an age rating during its software regulation review, according to Games Welt and confirmed to Destructoid by Microsoft. Traditionally speaking, video game violence is constantly under the scanner and is always kept on a close watch. Dead Rising’s absurd, over-the-top gore has prevented Dead Rising and Dead Rising 2 from publishing in Germany previously. Source: IGN
