The news is according to ZKG, who have written a detailed report on how Call of Duty, more specifically, Treyarch’s game is to blame for all these disc read errors.

Midway through their article, they state that they had contact from a former employee from Infinity Ward who had this to say on the issue:

They said that the way that Treyarch’s code is executed and organized causes the disc to spin too fast in the PS3 thus blowing the Blu Ray lens and that is what causes all those disc read errors.

Engadget have recently received the Nintendo Wii MotionPlus and a couple of new games to try it out on, the idea of the Wii MotionPlus is to increase the sensitivity of the Wii’s current controller. The Wii MotionPlus is on sale for $19.99.

According to Engadget the fitting of the attachment is extremely self explanatory and could be done without really reading the instructions. One thing they did say is that it wasn’t obvious whether or not the Nintendo Wii had acknowledged whether or not the MotionPlus attachment was present.

Engadget do not seem extremely blown away by the Wii MotionPlus’s performance when playing Grand Slam Tennis, however in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 the MotionPlus is apparently great, this is perhaps why Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 is bundled with the MotionPlus.

By this we can assume that if the game spends the time adapting to the MotionPlus results can be substantial, this therefore proves the MotionPlus is a worthwhile investment if you are willing to wait a while for games.

Check out Engadget for a full review, photos and gameplay videos,

Will you buy a Wii MotionPlus?

According to this Joystiq report, manufacturing orders have been split between two companies, Foxconn and Pegatron respectively.

While this remains just a rumor, it is interesting to add that these are the same two companies that worked on the original PS3 console, so maybe it’s time for Sony to put the rumors to rest for good.

When we think of game genres, the most popular has to be shooter type games, and the biggest explored is World War II games.

Looks like PS3 owners have something to rejoice over as we have learned that Sony are preparing to bring back backwards compatibility for all future Playstation 3 consoles.

As reported from Siliconera, Sony are planning to ‘emulate’ the Emotion Engine that is required to play all PS2 games. If they manage to do this, it will mean that they will be able to provide backwards compatibility without actually having the correct hardware to do it.

According to the report above, Sony has already acquired the patent which will allow them to start work on this new technology. Could we start to see backwards compatibility in the upcoming PS3 Slim console?

When we first heard about Xbox 360’s Project Natal it seemed a little hard to believe, then after watching hands-on reviews and reading about a Natal prototype, things seemed a little more real.

Next we read in detail about Project Natal’s Milo and the voice recognition technology, we could see that the idea was great, but the concept was a long time before production.

On the other hand, PS3’s Motion Sensitive Controller seemed a little more real and looked to reach consumers way before Natal.

So this is why we are surprised to hear that Sony’s PS3 wand motion-sensing technology - expected release date around early 2010 - is not in the hands of THQ developers while Project Natal dev kits are.

The Mirror is reporting that THQ CEO - Brian Farrell - said they have had Project Natal kits for some time. One reason THQ might be missing out on a PS3 wand kit, is the apparent limited supply. Read more on the Mirror and let us know what you think about both technologies.

Remember the big news a few months ago that Modern Warfare 2 would no longer be accompanied by the Call of Duty tag? Well it has been revealed that Activision and Infinity Ward have lost a sizable amount of brand awareness as a result of it.

As this GamaSutra article reports, consumer awareness levels for the upcoming sequel have dropped 20 percent ever since Activision revealed the news that Modern Warfare 2 would be dropping the Call of Duty tag.

Nick Williams from the GamePlan Insights Division for OTX had this to say though on the statistic: “Despite this dramatic drop in awareness, the purchase intent for Modern Warfare 2 remains very strong.’‘

Does this really bother any of you though? We are pretty sure anyone who is an FPS fan knows about Modern Warfare 2’s release, with or without the COD tag. What do you think?
