Street Fighter Demolishes Car With His Bare Hands

0 comments
 



If you're like millions of other Americans and are currently sitting in an office with no real outlet for stress release, keep this video on hand for future use.

Using only his hands (and other parts of his body), this Ryu lookalike utterly destroys an old car in a junkyard. Even though he may have had some off-camera help, it's still pretty impressive.

We can't really do this video justice using the written word, so just go right ahead and watch it. We can almost guarantee you'll feel better after doing so.

Fair warning: If you are in an office setting, you'll want to turn down the volume a little bit.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 grosses $400 million on first day

0 comments
 

One of the video game industry's biggest franchises is bringing home even more spoils of war. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 generated $400 million worth of retail sales in the U.S. and Great Britain on its launch day Tuesday -- setting a new industry record.
The eighth entry in the annual military action series sold 6.5 million units in just one day, publisher Activision Blizzard Inc. said.
Last year's Call of Duty: Black Ops generated $360 million in sales on its first day, while 2009's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 took in $310 million. The price for most versions of the game has remained consistent at $60.
Behind the scenes, the Call of Duty franchise has struggled through a dramatic series of events over the last couple of years. The game's co-creators Jason West and Vince Zampella left Activision in 2009 and are now embroiled in lawsuits with the Santa Monica publisher. They also took most of the development talent that worked on Modern Warfare 2 with them to work at a new development studio.
The Activision-owned studio at which they previously worked, Infinity Ward, spent much of 2009 rebuilding its ranks and had to partner with another studio, Sledgehammer Games, to get Modern Warfare 3 finished on time. Reviews have been largely positive, however, though not quite as good as for Modern Warfare 2, according to compilation site Metacritic.
Analyst Evan Wilson of Pacific Crest Securities estimated that Modern Warfare 3 will sell 23 million copies worldwide by the end of 2012, compared with 20 million for Black Ops in the same period last year.
That's good news for Activision Blizzard, which saw its stock take a hit Tuesday on news that its other key franchise, World of Warcraft, is losing subscribers. Wall Street did not seem surprised by the sales news Friday, however, as Activision stock was down 1% at $12.83 in midday trading.

Rumor: Grand Theft Auto V Info Leaked by QA Tester

0 comments
 

Leaks of Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto V, the fifth in the long-running series about stealing cars, have been rife ever since its announcement last week. Ranging from the purported leak of the game's map—which sees Los Santos taking up most of the space—to a post purportedly written by a rogue games journalist with information currently unavailable to the public.

Grand Theft Auto V: First Trailer Goes Live

0 comments
 


As the video for Grand Theft Auto 5 (GTAV) hits the internet, we finally have our first glimpse at what's sure to become one of the most popular - and controversial - games of 2012.

Set in Los Santos, a fictional (but eerily accurate) facsimile of Los Angeles, it looks to follow the story of a retired criminal wanting to start a new life in the sun and surf of the California-like San Andreas county.

Predictably, this doesn't work out for our protagonist and he's drawn into a life of crime in the new city, with robberies, car thefts and extortion likely to be the order of the day.

The setting might be a little disappointing for fans of the series hoping for something new - after all, we've been to Los Santos before in the PlayStation 2 game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. At the same time that particular game set a new high standard for videogames, so we're hoping for more of the same with GTAV.

We're most interested in the cars here at All Car Tech and it's looking good in that respect. They're more detailed than ever and the area surrounding the city looks stunning, with roads twisting around wind farms, immense mountains and skyscrapers providing the backdrop.

There are some great little details too, such as convertibles with folding roofs, the usual selection of close-to-real life vehicles (we spotted Audi R8, Aston Martin Vantage and Pontiac Firebird replicas in the video), bikes, trucks, helicopters and aircraft too.

Are you as excited about GTAV as us? Let us know below...
