Treyarch is also getting in on 4th of July celebrations in the US with a double XP weekend event for the PS3, Xbox 360, PC, and Wii versions of Call of Duty: World at War. This isn't restricted to the US too; it's worldwide. Also kicking off this weekend is the PS3 Weekend Warrior competition. More details are in the full article.

Despite criticisms that Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, DS) isn't as good as its predecessor Modern Warfare (PS3, Xbox 360, PC), Treyarch should still be happy with this outcome - the fifth installment to the Call of Duty franchise has sold over 11 million units since its launch back in November 2008.

Treyarch has released the second map pack for Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, DS) earlier, just in time for the Double XP Weekend that ends 10AM PST on Tuesday. As an additional incentive to go and get the US$ 9.99 download, the devs themselves will be gearing for battle and you can pit your skills against the masterminds that brought you the new map pack.

War is hell, for attack dogs and humans alike. Just because dogs happen to be cuddlier than humans doesn't mean that they were spared the horrors of war. Activision has responded back to PETA's complaint about killing hostile attack dogs in Call of Duty: World at War.

It doesn't even have to be a real dog. Apparently, killing a dog in a video game is disgusting enough. This is according to the Animal Rights Club of the Academy of Notre Dame, who is protesting the canine killing spree in Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, DS), saying that killing animals should not be a form of entertainment. Wow, the game nitpicking doesn't stop.

Because of the online success of Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS), Activision is handing out gifts for all you CoD fans: Nazi zombies and double EXP for this weekend! Now you can pull a holocaust on their undead asses, and you get twice as much EXP to boot! Great weekend coming up, after the jump.

Call of Duty: World at War is still top gun in the UK. So far, nothing's been able to knock it off the top of the software charts since it entered last month. Resistance 2, on the other hand, is only on its second week in the regions and has already fallen to 20th place.

I'm sure this question's been eating at you ever since you heard of the mode in Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS): "Why Nazi Zombies?" Activision executive producer Daniel Suarez explains.

The numbers are in from the UK and it looks like gamers are still too busy with Call of Duty: World at War to bother with Resistance 2, which entered the charts at 10th place. That's way lower than expected for the highly anticipated (or not) game.

By the end of last week, November 22, Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS) found itself still at the pinnacle of UK's Top 40 Entertainment Sorfware sales on Chart-Track. Other notables for that week are Need for Speed: Undercover which debuted at a respectable fourth place and Wrath of the Lich King eating a 32-place crit and dropping to 34th.
