News - Call Of Duty Leaks Turning Into "Viral Misinformation" Are Bad For Players, A
Activision has shed more light on Call of Duty leaks following the company reportedly taking legal action to get a prominent Call of Duty leak account to stop posting.
In a YouTube comment on a TDAWG video, Activision said it understands that "rumors are part of gaming culture," along with "healthy online speculation." But Activision said it draws a line "when leaks turn into viral misinformation." This "undermines our developers and also distorts player expectations of the games we're making," the developer said.
"When that happens, we're going to step in and set the record straight," Activision said.
News - Resident Evil Requiem Actor Has Seen All Of Your Leon Memes
In case you hadn't noticed, there's a vocal segment of Resident Evil fans who just love Leon S. Kennedy, especially now that he's back in Resident Evil Requiem. Nick Apostolides reprises his role as Leon in the game, and knows all about the thirsty Leon fancam edits online. "It exists and I'm aware," Apostolides told GameSpot after describing them as "meme-worthy scenes and little GIFs and everything that are just chopped together with like fun cutesy music or sexy music."
During GameSpot's recent interview with Apostolides and his co-star, Angela Sant'Albano (Grace Ashcroft), the actor revealed that he's "been tagged in about a million and a half of them. I've probably seen everyone that's been created. That is a culture ... I meet a lot of fans, and my first question is, 'Hey, what what got you into the games?' Or, 'What's the first game you played for Resident Evil?' ... And often times the answer is 'No ... I'm not a gamer, [I] just like Leon edits.' ... I don't blame them."

News - The Best PS5 Deals This Week: Save On Games And Consoles For A Limited Time
Many of last week's PS5 deals are continuing this week, including the awesome sales at both PlayStation Direct and Woot. However, both of these sales will be wrapping up soon, making this your last chance to cash in on some of the best deals we've seen in the early months of 2026. There are also a handful of new deals to explore, including a variety of DualSense price cuts and additional game discounts--including Borderlands 4 for $45 (was $70) and Dragon Age: The Veilguard for just $10 (was $20). If you're hunting for a cheap PS5 console, your best bet remains the PS5 Digital Edition: Fortnite Flowering Chaos Bundle, which saves you $100 and comes packed with exclusive content for Epic's battle royale.
Here's a look at the best PS5 deals for the week of March 2, 2026, including price cuts on games, accessories, and consoles.
Highguard will officially go offline on March 12, developer Wildlight has announced. This was the expected result, given that player numbers had fallen dramatically and the game was being supported only by a skeleton crew following mass layoffs at the company.
More than 2 million people played Highguard, the studio said, and "many believed in what we were building." Wildlight said it is "deeply grateful" for the fans, but admitted, "We have not been able to build a sustainable player base to support the game long term."
Highguard will remain playable until March 12, and Wildlight said it hopes people will come back "one more time to show your support and get those final great matches in while we still can."
