Following Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2, this week’s release of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare represents the concluding entry in this shopping season’s trinity of multi-player driven shooters. While some have speculated that EA’s cannibalized Titanfall 2’s sales by launching the game in Battlefield 1’s mighty wake, this week, we’ll see how their unconventional strategy affects Activision’s cash-cow.

Robert’s Pick: If you read our interview with Trillion: God of Destruction director Masahiro Yamamoto, then you’re probably excited by the prospect of tackling a boss with 1,000,000,000,000 hit points. That is, unless you don’t own a PS Vita, and were forced to sit on the sidelines, as Demon Lords whittled away at the mighty foe. This week, Idea Factory is bringing the turn-based title to Steam, allowing the monumental undertaking to be attempted by the growing legion of PC players.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare whole pay to win thing really turned me off. First time in a long while I’m not going to buy at launch.
Whats the change? First time I’ve heard about this.

Is this confirmed? Seems like a really dumb thing to do.
I remember Mario Hoops 3 on 3 being kind of fun.
I remember playing it for 15 minutes and never playing it again.
I might have to pick up Trillion is they give a launch discount.
Typically IF gives 40% off at launch. Even though there are a few bugs, it’s almost always worth it.
Guy in the top pick needs to turn around.
I don’t get it.
If he turns around, he’s got a face full of kitty
Mmmm.
You forgot Dishonored 2 brah.
Dishonored 2 comes out on the 10th, so it will be in next week’s list.
