Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is expected to generated revenues of $1.1 billion in its first six weeks.
That's according to Wedbush Morgan's Michael Pachter, who suggested the game will sell 10 per cent more than previous title Black Ops.
Pachter also estimated that the Call of Duty Elite premium service could pull in up to 4 million subscribers by the end of the year.
As noted by our sister site Industrygamers, Call of Duty: Black Ops generated $650 million in its first five days, up from Modern Warfare 2's $550 million.
The highly anticipated sequel is due for release next week, November 8.

You've likely gleaned as much from yesterday's big Grand Theft Auto V debut trailer, but this morning's official announcement of the game from Rockstar confirms a "Los Santos" (Los Angeles-ish) setting, as well as the return of online multiplayer. "Grand Theft Auto V focuses on the pursuit of the almighty dollar in a re-imagined, present-day Southern California," the release reads, specifically pointing to "Los Santos and surrounding hills, countryside, and beaches" as the locales.
Predictably, the announcement calls GTAV "the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar has yet created," and company co-head Sam Houser characterizes the project as "another radical reinvention of the Grand Theft Auto universe." From that debut teaser, we're ... awaiting further evidence of that "radical reinvention" Houser promises. But hey, at least it looks like planes are back in the mix!
Despite making the game even more official, Rockstar has yet to announce a release window or platforms for the Rockstar North-led project.

If you've managed to avoid checking out the deleted scenes in Heavy Rain, you'll get a chance to finally play through them when Heavy Rain Director's Cutlaunches on November 8. In addition to scrapped content, the re-release also includes The Taxidermist DLC, the soundtrack, eight bonus making-of videos, a few themes, concept art and two trailers, PlayStation Blog reports. There's also a new front-end menu and UI with Move support.
To celebrate the (re)launch, Sony's making the Heavy Rain Crime Scene Dynamic Theme available on PSN the same day. We're sure that'll fill the void in your heart left by the child you lost at that mall one time, you monster.

Though the title implies otherwise, Ridge Racer: Unbounded's development period has been given strict bounds. Developer Bugbear absolutely must be finished making the surprising new racer by March 6 of next year ... because that's the release date.
Namco Bandai also released a new trailer focusing on multiplayer gameplay. Luckily, that's been captured within some pretty clear limits as well. Specifically, the little window above.

If you, like us, have felt jilted as other territories received a glut of Square Enix RPGs while the U.S. got table scraps, it's time to relieve yourself of your worries.PlayStation Blog has just announced the "Winter of RPGs" campaign, which will see the release of three much-desired PSOne Classics on the PSN: Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy 5 and Final Fantasy 6.
You'll be able to grab the character-rich Chrono Cross next Tuesday, November 8, the career-oriented Final Fantasy 5 on November 22, and the positively operatic Final Fantasy 6 on December 6. It's nice that they'll finally be on there -- though forcing them to compete for our free time with Skyrim, Batman: Arkham City, Uncharted 3 and Assassin's Creed: Revelations seems, well, kind of mean.

Ubisoft has announced Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6 Patriots for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
Patriots, due in 2013, is in development at Ubisoft Montreal with support from the publisher's Toronto and Red Storm studios, and is the first instalment in the 25 million-selling franchise since 2006'sRainbow Six: Vegas.
In a press release, Ubisoft creative director David Sears said: "Terrorism has evolved, and so has Rainbow 6. In Patriots, all the team play, tactics, and realism that fans of the series love have been coupled with an exciting new narrative direction."
Specifically, that narrative shift means multiple protagonists. The principal threat in the game is a revolutionary group called the True Patriots, rising up against "greedy politicians and corporate special interests." New cooperative and multiplayer modes are also promised.

November 3rd, 2011, 23:57 Posted By: wraggster
Sony's social revamp for its PS3 social network, PlayStation Home, launches today.
The platform has been given a thorough overhaul. It is now split into genre-specific areas, dubbed "districts", to improve discoverability. Players are able to join multiplayer games immediately from each district, with the recently announced free-to-play FPS Bootlegger 29 available in the Action district, and Adventure themed around Uncharted 3, which launched in Europe yesterday. Also new are the self-explanatory Sportswalk, and lo-fi showcase Indie Park.
In a press release, SCEE head of online marketing Darren Cairns said: "The new revamp of PlayStation Home puts you right at the centre of a world of games. We now have multiple spaces, games and activities themed around the type of games you know and love on your PS3 - and it's free to join in and have a look around."
The revamp was announced in August, and is a natural consequence of the April launch of Home 1.5, which added new developer tools for graphics, physics and multiplayer games.
Sony recently said the PSN outage had positively affected user numbers and game revenue, and the same applies to home: in June, Home director Jack Buser said the service saw a new record number of users in the week the service was restored.

Sony Online Entertainment's MMO epic, DC Universe Online, is now official free to play.
The game has arrived on PSN this week with our favourite four-letter 'F'-word sitting next to it. Free, guys. Free.
Sony Online Entertainment executive producer Lorin Jameson made the announcement back in September, saying that the company was altering the PC and PS3 MMO's business model because the cost of the game exceeded the company's original forecast.
"In terms of 'Is it a result in a drop in subs' - absolutely not," he said. "This is the right business model. If I can be honest, the game ended up costing a lot more than we thought it would, and this was our preferred business model from day one," he said.
So get online and download it now, you've got nothing to lose. It'll burn up an afternoon at least.

While he neglected to sling any specific mud at Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, EA executive vice president Patrick Soderlund believes that Battlefield 3multiplayer will make players "feel loyal" to the game, even in the face of Activision's annual juggernaut. "We all respect what Call of Duty brings and what they're going to come with," Soderlund recently told IGN, though he believes EA has "an industry-leading multiplayer game that will make people want to stay with us, frankly."
Soderlund sees Battlefield 3's multiplayer as a service that allows players to "continually get updates and new content and hopefully improvements to the product as we go." One such piece of content will be this December's "Back to Karkand" DLC, which Soderlund promises will contain more destruction than the current multiplayer maps. "It's a different level, even more so than in BF3," he said, adding that the DLC team made a "deliberate decision" to ratchet up the destruction for the upcoming content. Sounds like fun, so long as it doesn'tdestroy the servers too.

The PlayStation 3 is getting closer to overtaking lifetime sales of Microsoft's Xbox 360 .
Sony's latest financial results reveal that lifetime, worldwide sales of the PS3 totalled 55.5 million units at the end of its financial quarter on September 30. Last month, Microsoft confirmed that lifetime sales of the Xbox 360 stood at 57.6 million units, with hardware shipments declining year on year.
During the quarter, Sony sold 3.7 million PS3s, an increase of 200,000 units - or 5.7 per cent - year on year. Software sales rose by a similar proportion, climbing 5.9 per cent to 37.4 million units.
Despite the improved sales, Sony's Consumer Products And Services division - which includes its PlayStation business as well as PC, mobile, camera, and TV and video - was hit with a quarterly loss of ¥34.6 billion (£277.6 million).

Rockstar has released the debut trailer for GTA V - and the series is to return to San Andreas.
The trailer shows a variety of sun-drenched, mock-Californian locations, both rural and urban. The anonymous voiceover suggests that, while Rockstar is to once again repeat the story ofGTA IV with a reformed criminal seeking redemption in the American dream, it realises that sending the player out on violent crime sprees within an hour rather dulls the point.
"I wanted to retire from what I was doing, from that line of work," he says. "Be a good guy for once - a family man…But, well, you know how it is."
The San Andreas setting, like Liberty City, gives Rockstar access to a melting pot of social and ethnic diversity, and the trailer shows Hispanic workers harvesting crops as a duster flies overhead, homes being repossessed and the homeless out on the streets, contrasted with the high-rises, oil drilling and golf clubs shown elsewhere.
Despite the variety of locations and the range of activities on show, the trailer is understated, but extremely self-assured. This is the open world as a place rather than a playground, following the same ethos set by GTA IV. Not shown so far is evidence of MotionScan-powered facial animation (as used in LA Noire), whether the game world will extend to San Andreas' Las Venturas or San Fierro, or any specific look at who the protagonist is.
And the soundtrack? , by the Small Faces.

Sony's Consumer Products & Services division - which includes the PlayStation business and LCD televisions - suffered a ¥34.6 billion loss ($449m) for the second quarter ended September 30, down from the ¥1 billion profit for the same period last year.
Sales were down to ¥779.7 billion ($10.1bn) for the quarter compared to ¥889 billion, with the PlayStation 3 price cut and software sales as a contributing factor. The company lowered the price of its console in August this year across all regions.
However, it was the manufacturing costs associated with the LCD business that not only pulled the Consumer Products & Services division down, but hit the entire Sony Corporation's bottom line.
Sony Corp recorded losses of ¥1.6 billion ($21m) for the period, down from ¥68.7 billion profit in 2010. Sales were down just over 9 per cent from ¥1.7 trillion to ¥1.5 trillion, with the company blaming continued weak performance in TV sales and manufacturing.
For the full 2011 financial year Sony now expects profits of ¥25.9 billion, down over 80 per cent on last year's ¥135.7 billion, with sales of ¥3 trillion, down from ¥3.3 trillion.
Sony sold 3.7 million PlayStation 3 consoles during the 3 months, up from 3.5 million in 2010, and 1.7 million PlayStation Portable units, up from 1.5 million. The PlayStation 2 shifted another 1.2 million, down from 1.5 million.
PlayStation 3 software topped 37.4 million units, up from 35.3 million, with PSP software at 8.1 million, down from 11 million in 2010. PlayStation 2 game sales dropped from 5.6 million to 2.8 million.

The PlayStation 3 version of enchanting point and click game Machinarium is the "ultimate version", developer Amanita Design has said.The PS3 version of Machinarium, due out in February 2012, is "more fluent" than other versions, Amanita founder Jakub Dvorský told Eurogamer at the GameCity6 festival in Nottingham."This PlayStation version will be the ultimate version of Machinarium," he said. "There will be a few new features, such as zoom. You will have the ability to zoom to certain places. There will be Trophies. It will be more fluent. It's a really nice version. I'm quite happy with it. We're looking forward to it."Machinarium on PS3 supports the PS Move controller, enabling actual point and click gameplay. But for Dvorský the game plays best on the DualShock."For me it's even better with the usual game pad controller because it's very easy to control this game with a game pad," he said. "We integrated a magnetic feature so when you are moving around a hotspot with the thumb stick it magnetises. It's quite easy to navigate and control the game. There are also more buttons for opening the inventory and for zooming."I like to test it because I can just sit on the couch and watch it on the big TV. It's much more comfortable. Also, many people have a much better sound system in their living room. We're happy people will experience the sound quality and the music - it's very important for us."Amanita's delightful puzzle adventure first launched on PC back in October 2009, winning an 8/10 from Eurogamer's Machinarium review.Meanwhile, Dvorský said Amanita is exploring a number of platforms for the upcoming Samorost 3, including the Wii U."Of course we want to bring it to as many platforms as possible," he said. "Definitely PC, Mac and tablets - iPad and Android tablets. And hopefully also some bigger consoles. We are in contact with Sony. They are interested, so we want to bring it to PlayStation. We're also interested in Xbox. Nintendo Wii U looks promising because it will be a powerful machine and that's what we want."Our games are not based on skills or controlling mechanism. It would work with many different styles of navigation. We're not concerned about control mechanism. Any platform is good for us if it's powerful enough."One platform Amanita's games will not appear on, however, is the Wii. "We don't like Wii because the resolution is so low and there is a size limit on WiiWare of 40MB, which is so low for nowadays," Dvorský explained. "It's crazy."
