Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Is Current Gen Only
It looks like Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare won't be coming to PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360.
In response to a fan question on Twitter, the official Infinity Ward account confirmed the game will not be on PS3.
There was no mention of Xbox 360, but it's same to assume if it's not coming to one, it won't be coming to the other. Last year's Call of Duty: Black Ops III didn't have a campaign mode on previous gen platforms.
Back in April, Microsoft discontinued production of the Xbox 360 after 10 years.
PC Modder Causes Utter Misery in Dark Souls 3
Dark Souls 3 PC players beware, as a modder spent this past weekend griefing players in numerous horrible ways.
As reported by Kotaku, the player claims to be able to “softban people just by pressing R1.” Softbanning, in case you didn’t know, sees Dark Souls 3 players pulled from the clean players online and instead, can only play with players who use cheats.
In a stream from the weekend (which isn’t available to view online), the notorious player could be seen flying around the map, passing through scenery, and killing unsuspecting players in a few hits with modified weapons. Worse still, those who’ve been on the receiving end of this trickery are said to come out of it with messed up status effects.
The Division: Daily Missions Missing Again, Ubisoft Looking for Solution
If you're a regular player of The Division, you might have noticed the Daily Missions have gone missing once again.
Ubisoft Massive has said it is aware of the issue. This isn't the first time this has happened, and according to an official tweet today, the studio is looking into "a permanent solution to this recurring problem."
A host of problems started occurring back in mid-April, and the large Patch 1.1 also caused more than its fair share of issues. Ubisoft has handed out compensation for missing Daily Missions in the past, so keep your fingers crossed if you're light on Phoenix Credits.
Super Meat Boy Release Date Set for Wii U
At last, Super Meat Boy will arrive on Wii U on May 12.
The news comes via the Super Meat Boy Twitter page, where it was revealed BlitWorks – the team responsible for the PS4, PS Vita, and Shield versions of Meat Boy – will be handling the porting duties.
Originally, the prospect of Super Meat Boy coming to Nintendo platforms seemed very unlikely. Way back in 2010, Team Meat was looking into bringing the devilishly difficult platformer to Wii via WiiWare – Nintendo’s answer to Xbox Live Arcade.
