It was recently made known that Activision has recently filed a trademark on the Call of Duty name when used with “pre-recorded movies featuring comedy, drama, action, adventure, music, theatrical performances and/or animations”.

Now it’s no secret that Activision has made more than enough money off of the Call of Duty franchise and is looking to make even more money off of Modern Warfare 2. However, if they come out with Modern Warfare The Broadway Show, I won’t be buying Modern Warfare 3.

Blizzard trademarks ‘Cataclysm’, raises eyebrows

July 1st, 2009 1 Comment   Posted in MMO, Online, PC, RPG

Blizzard has been working on a secret MMO for some time now and details have been ridiculously scarce ever since the project began. However, if a recent trademark filing is anything to go by we might be one step closer to discovering what the game’s title will be.

Cataclysm is the filing and was filed for use in the field of online games, computer games and paper based products. There’s no telling if this is actually the MMO’s title but those 3 fields look pretty convincing considering the MMO would be an online computre game and most likely have some sort of trading card game like World of Warcraft.

‘Crafting Mama’ trademarked

March 18th, 2009 No Comments   Posted in Hardware, Leak, Nintendo, Nintendo DS, Wii

First Cooking Mama, then Gardening Mama, now Crafting Mama? If a recent trandmark by the series’ developer Cooking Mama Ltd. is any indication, arts and crafts may be Mama’s next venture.

There’s no confirmation or official press releases stating that there will actually be a game entitled Crafting Mama so no details or anything to go along with the recent trademark findings. Altough, I’m sure you can guess what the gameplay will entail.

What’s next? Cleaning Mama?
