Black Ops Map Pack 3 ANNIHILATION?

Recently this rumored promo flier was leaked on the Internet. It is for none other then Call of Duty Black Ops. This is the 3rd map pack that is rumored to be named ANNIHILATION. ANNIHILATION says we will be able to “INVADE HANGER 18, ATTACK AT THE DRIVE-IN, INFILTRATE THE SILO, ESCAPE THE HAZARD, and OBLITERATE THE ZOMBIES” And the rumored release date is 6-29-11. With less then 2 weeks away hopefully we will see an official announcement. I am hoping we see another trailer that shows off the maps. Below is a video where you can see the promo flier a bit better. Till we hear more we just have to enjoy the Black Ops that we have now.

Black Ops Ascension Strategy

Ascension is the new Zombie map that came out for Call of Duty: Black Ops in the First Strike Map Pack. A lot of people I know who bought this game are not planning on playing this map. If you bought it(for $15 no less) you should at least give it a few plays. Maybe after reading this article you will see how in depth this map really is and also how fun it can be not worrying about some dude camping and working with a few friends against the living dead. I am going to go through some of the new stuff in this map as well as tips, tricks and my own strategy. I may forget a few things, and If I do then I am sorry. I will try to cover as much as I can. See the rest after the jump.

Black Ops:First Strike costs $53.6 Million?

Call of Duty: Black Ops has sold amazingly well. There is no surprise that the First Strike Map Pack will sell pretty well. With any and all major DLC there are problems. I have found a few and decided to share before it is fixed. The first picture below shows the map pack download costing -1 Microsoft point. Well just out of curiosity I decided to see if it would work or not. The next picture shows it the required balance being 42,93,967,295 which comes out to be $53,687,091.19. This of course is going to get fixed and no one will end up buying it for that price, but I feel it is a worth wild to share to those who probably will not see it before it gets fixed. I apologize for the picture quality not being crystal clear, but I’m sure you can make out what it says. And before I post I have checked it again and the problem is fixed so you don’t have to worry. Just enjoy the mistake of Microsoft that is below.

Episode 29- Now with More Geek

GeekPicWe are back for another episode. This time we go a bit long for good reason. We welcome a new addition to the podcast.  In this episode we look at the 3DS Announcement and somehow talk about Sony and the future of the PSP(2). Then we look into what is to come this year in all the different types of media formats. Then an extra special look on the many shooters coming out in the next month. We of course go over our usual segments of the show and we wrap it up with what we want TheGeeksFTW to become in 2011. We hope you enjoy the new addition to the show as much as we are.
