Sup guys, Damac1214 here with this weeks News Round-Up. We're covering a ton of Call of Duty, Community, and Random news this week so get ready, this blogs gonna be a long one.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

 * Call of Duty 2014 was thought to be leaked, and called Patriots, but it was later confirmed to be entirely fake.
 * Activision started the Call of Duty hype train. They announced several small details throughout the day, and then said that Call of Duty 2014 would get revealed on Sunday, May 4th.
 * But then Destructoid leaked the reveal trailer so Activision decided to formally announce Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare complete with the reveal trailer coming out early.
 * Gamestop started listing exclusive Pre-Order bonuses for Advanced Warfare but they were strangely only listed for the Next-Gen versions of the game.
 * Amazon listed some of the first details about the game.
 * It was then revealed that pre-ordering the game would get you exclusive Personalization Packs in Call of Duty: Ghosts and Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
 * Microsoft revealed that all Advanced Warfare DLC would be coming to Xbox Live first. This didn't really come as a shocker to anyone.
 * Advanced Warfare was confirmed to take place in the year 2054, the farthest a Call of Duty game has gone into the future.
 * Activision then issued a Press Release on the game, revealing even more details about it.
 * Eurogamer than claimed that the Advanced Warfare trailer was running at 900p. Some people may see this as a big deal, because the trailer was captured on Xbox One. Most probably don't, because they wouldn't have had any idea otherwise unless someone told them.
