New CoD Game leaked? "CoD: Ghosts" appears on retailer then pulled...

Now, I typically try to stay out of the rumour mill, but these slips have happened in the past and proved to be true....

I leave it to each of you to decide if it's real.

(btw, the article went up only an hour ago and the link to "Tesco Direct" is already dead...)

either way don't care much about the name or art work - just make a decent game

^^^This.

Spend zero hours or fucks on singleplayer and focus all time to fixing the broken multiplayer experience. Eliminate lag and fix the shitty score-streak system.

Probably based on the Modern Warfare character Lt. Simon "Ghost" Riley.

What about the neversoft involvement which has been proven correct? Something looks fishy here...

Well the YouTube is blowing up with commentators spreading the news.

Update: Kotaku is running the story now too, with a few more sources cited...

*This is still rumour mill, but I've *personally* found Kotaku to be quite up-to-date (and is my preferred "game rumour" source... They will sometimes run stories that prove untrue, but will follow-up their own articles pretty quickly with such news...*

I'm going to go out on a limb and say "I bet this is a 'controlled leak' for hype"

yep you are right there arcanix i tend to trust kotaku.

I find the Ghosts name a bit odd, since there is Ghost Recon already...

Maybe Ghosts was a special unit that wore those masks

It's called ghosts because that's what we are usually shooting at with the lag, to try to get kills...

Hopefully they are starting a new story. The Modern Warfare story-line was just getting more an more ridiculous after CoD4.

Tmartn is publishing it, with some 'descriptives' that speak to it being launched on a 'new call-of-duty engine' - THAT has me intrigued.

Obviously it'll need to run on the new platforms, I'm hoping in doing so that the entire engine is new and 'improved'.

Tmartn vid:

Ali-A had the description from the game and it stated an "all new Call of Duty" engine.

Trailer is coming anytime. Also there is a clue to the story in the Ghost image. It says "We are all we've got". Sounds like a special unit of "ghosts"...sounds pretty freakin awesome

Pre-order: DONE

Looks like we will be getting a new engine.....

"UPDATE 3: Tesco has put these listings back up (with the box art for Xbox 360) and have put out the official description of the game (New Article HERE):
The franchise that has defined a generation of gaming is set to raise the bar once again with the all-new Call of Duty®: Ghosts. Published by Activision and developed by Infinity Ward, the studio that created the original Call of Duty and the seminal Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® series, Call of Duty: Ghosts ushers in the next generation of the franchise, delivering a riveting all-new gameplay experience built on an entirely new story, setting and cast, all powered by a new next-generation Call of Duty engine."

Another "pulse" of leak, slightly larger than the last one, within a few days of the previous one... BY THE SAME SOURCE?!?!?

I'm even more convinced that Tesco is under contract with Activision and this is all part of the marketing plan.... Leak, my a$$... The idea of leaked information automatically comes with a high degree of excitement, as there's a sense that we're not supposed to have it... Acti's marketing team is just leveraging that fact to make their campaign more successful...

You know as of today you can go to Game Stop or wherever and preorder it right?

Already got mine...the camo is freakin cool
