I'm guessing that Activision is making a DS CoD and not one for the 3DS because of the size of the player base.

I started playing some Fear 3 last night and wow, this game is really good. I wasn't expecting it to be bad but it's better then I was thinking it would be. The graphics are better, the music and sound effects are great, and the gameplay is solid and very exciting. The AI seems decent as well. Played some online multiplayer as well. It doesn't have your typical deathmatches or capture the flag. There's a CoD zombie inspired match type were you fight off waves of enemies. A Soul King match type where you can possess enemies and kill them to collect souls and whoever gets the most wins. A F***ing Run match type where you need to keep running forward to avoid a wall of death while staving off enemies. This game is simply a lot of fun to play.

FUCK.

I had a fucking flat tire tonight. Asshole soldiers (or maybe drug mafia) left a number of those tiny spikes used to stop vehicles in a chase. I just got back home, all sweaty and covered in dirt.
