The release of the much anticipated shooter may yet be a couple weeks away but that’s not going to stop us from taking a look at the official launch trailer now will it?

Do you find your Call of Duty experience lacking a certain punch? Do you yawn during firefights and nod off while the building you’re in explodes around you?

Activision’s got the answer, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. A yet even purer action experience for those of us that need a little something extra get their fix these days.

When it comes to videogames, the Call of Duty franchise reigns supreme. Whenever a new game is release, it shatters records, not just for games but for the entire entertainment industry. This is why the upcoming Modern Warfare 3 is such a big deal. We were able to get a firsthand look at some gameplay during E3; exploring just a few of the missions you’ll be tasked with.

Call of Duty used to shock gamers with its nuclear sized surprises and intense, action-packed gameplay; however, the series has become very formulaic, due to the number of sequels and the dead-end nature of escalation.

Everyone knows what to expect from Modern Warfare 3: you’ll face more soldiers, get knocked over by more blasts, be funnelled down more corridors and there’ll be even more on-rails sections. It’s so predictable, but people still get excited about new Call of Duty games, including us. That’s just the CoD phenomenon.

Last week Infinity Ward released a set of four teasers for their upcoming shooter. War hit the streets of America, France, Germany and England.

Teasers are great but they pale in comparison to actual gameplay footage.

The online layoff has been difficult for gamers of all types but perhaps the group most anxious to get back to business as usual are fans of online shooters.

Now that online gaming has largely been restored to the PS3, users have the chance to make up for lost time by earning double XP this weekend for two of the most popular first-person shooters.

Infinity Ward has released an official teaser for the world’s most anticipated game. The inevitable release of Modern Warfare 3 is as much a foregone conclusion as the rising of the sun every morning however the details surrounding the shooter remain unclear.

Have a look at this trailer to see if you can glean any information (we’ll help you out).

Get your money ready. Five new maps are coming for Call Of Duty: Black Ops. Love it or hate it, this is probably the most successful video game of ever.

So as long as you’re going to buy it you may as well take a look at what you’ll be getting.

Twitter? Prizes? Well, it is Tuesday, and you know what that means don’t you?

Yes, today PS3 Attitude becomes PSFree Attitude, where we give away great prizes to you, our delectable readers, via the medium of Twitter.

As usual we’ll be giving away all sorts of freebies to our loyal Twitter followers with prizes ranging from PSN codes for new games and DLC to physical swag that we have here at Attitude Towers.

Well then, dear PS3 lovers… it will soon be the Year of the Rabbit, the happiest of all the Chinese zodiac signs.

In Chinese astrology the Rabbit is considered to be happy and popular. Rabbits are known for their artistic talent and good taste. You might say there are certain attributes of the Rabbit that foretell of a great year for Sony’s flagship console.

So, is that the case? Or will 2011 be more a ‘dog of a year’ than a metaphorical ‘lucky rabbit’s foot’?

My oh my, what an insanely awesome month just passed. November is always known for being a big one in the gaming world but both the amount and quality of the games that just hit shelves is staggering. In case you missed any of them, we’ve got them all right here in one place. To go along with it, we’ve also got the latest news on several new streaming movie/tv apps in both Europe and North America.

Nuketown – Call of Duty: Black Ops’ small multiplayer map, based on a suburban nuclear testing area – has divided opinion across the net and on PS3 Attitude. There’s no doubt that it has a flawed spawn system, which will see you repeatedly die (through no fault of your own), but that hasn’t stopped gamers from voting for it again and again. It is by far the most popular map on Black Ops – but is popularity an accurate measure of quality? After all, just look at some of the nonsense that tops the film and music charts.

PS3 Attitude brings you three different opinions: Echo loves it, Danny_D loathes it and I’m (Seanoc) on the fence – it sure does hurt sitting on this picket fence. Read on to find out the reasons why we think the way we do about Nuketown…

The yearly Call of Duty release is upon us again, which can only mean one thing – it’s time for us all to start questioning whether this is finally the year that people start getting sick of Call of Duty. We can’t speak for everyone but after putting a hefty amount of time in to Call of Duty: Black Ops, we can at least share our opinion. So what do we think?

Have you ever been sitting at your boring work cubicle on another bland Monday and thought to yourself, “Man, I really wish I could just start shooting at people with a gun?” If so… then you should probably seek professional help. But for those of you who like to escape the daily grind through video games, there’s a new trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops that might just grab your attention.

Information on Call of Duty: Black Ops seems to come in waves these days. We’ll get something about the campaign, then we’ll get something on multiplayer and then we get something on the zombies game mode, and the cycle repeats. With this new trailer, it seems to be the campaign’s turn again. Come inside to check it out.

The list of Sony’s first-party lineup that will be supporting 3D is quite impressive. On the other hand, the number on multiplatform games that will support it is pretty small. The list isn’t necessarily about to grow leaps and bounds but there is one major game that will certainly move to the top.

With all this talk about Medal of Honor it has been easy to forget about that other big military shooter, call of Duty: Black Ops. Treyarch is putting their game back in the map with week with the talk about Nazi Zombies (although specific details have kept us from reporting it) and a new customization video. Click the jump to see it.

Believe it or not, the PlayStation 3 was released nearly four years ago, and since then the console has been graced with hundreds of great titles. Therefore, we at PS3 Attitude thought we’d take some time to pay tribute to the people who create the games that make our mundane lives just that little bit more entertaining: the developers.

Over the next few weeks we’ll be revealing our one hundred favourite developers, and believe us when we say that there are some incredibly talented teams included. We’ve now revealed the first thirty developers in our mammoth list, and today we’re revealing the next ten.

Award-winning actors Gary Oldman and Ed Harris will be joining the voice cast of the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops. In addition, screenwriter and director David S. Goyer is on board to help with the story.
