- Activision has confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops will include full 2-4 player co-op throughout the campaign (http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters/post/2010/05/more-on-call-of-duty-black-ops-with-treyarch-studio-head-mark-lamia/1).

- Capcom is working with a Korean developer (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3179234) to produce a Mega Man Online MMO. It's unknown if the game will spread past the Asian markets.

- Best Buy is apparently launching a new gaming magazine called @Gamer (http://www.joystiq.com/2010/05/11/best-buy-taps-future-us-for-new-game-mag-gamer/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+weblogsinc%2Fjoystiq+%28Joyst iq%29). Because I guess LoLGamer, WooTGamer, 1337Gamer were all taken.

- URLs registered by Warner Bros indicate that they're working on former Midway properties (http://www.gamespot.com/news/6262110.html?part=rss&tag=gs_news&subj=6262110) Career Criminal, This is Vegas and Gauntlet.

- A dedicated group of Halo 2 fans noticed that even after the servers for Xbox 1 games were closed down, they could still join a game already in progress. And they kept that game going for nearly a month, until yesterday when "Apache N4SIR" finally dropped game (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3179240), as the last online player of Halo 2. With luck that will be the answer to a question on Jeopardy some day.

Hmm.

I am going to try and give Treyarch benefit of the doubt. In my mind, at this point WaW was better than MW2.

a MegaMan MMO sounds interesting, especially in a way you'd gain power-ups.

Best Buy is ridiculous.

A new Gauntlet could be very promising, especially in this age of Co-Op.

And if Leeroy Jenkins was an answer on Jeapordy, there is no reason I should never hear "Who is "Apache N4SIR?"

You've pretty much said all I could say about everything :p

Did CoG at any point mention the updated Marvel vs Capcom 3 news via Gameinformer? They confirmed several characters, including Dante and Deadpool.

I enjoyed the other Treyarch CoD games... I'll get black ops.

I'm sure it'll have a US server or two with US billing set up. It might not have a retail release, but there will be a localized version, I'm sure. And I'm definitely going to give it its free trial period.
