Call of Juarez: The Cartel

Call of Juarez The Cartel

Last night was of course the Harry Potter premiere in Trafalgar Square, London but also inside a Mexican bar off Covent Garden, Ubisoft were holding a little event to show off the multiplayer and co-op modes of Call of Juarez: The Cartel. This sequel is set in the present day instead of the Wild West so it’s less about riding horses and drinking your milk or whatever and more about busting caps in bad guys’ asses as one of three law enforcers trying to take down a drug cartel.

Alan Smith joins FIFA 12

Alan Smith has just been announced by EA as the new person to commentate alongside Martin Tyler on FIFA 12.

Kinect for FIFA

EA Sports have recently announced they won’t be putting Kinect support into any FIFA game until at least FIFA 13. Their senior vice president of worldwide development Andrew Wilson has been quoted saying “building anything on a platform just for the sake of it doesn’t make sense.” And I agree – unless you want to try out that famous Cantona kung-fu kick!
