"Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare" To Be Released Early November

And Fans Aren't Too Jazzed About It

"Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare" To Be Released Early November

On Monday May 2, 2016, Infinity Ward, alongside with Activision, released a trailer for the newest addition to join the "Call of Duty" franchise. The game is called "Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare," to fall in line along side with the "Modern Warfare" series as well as "Advanced Warfare".

As a fan of the "Call of Duty" franchise myself, I was excited to see the new game's announcement. The trailer shows a lot of obscure scenes of aircrafts shooting down a city and soldiers in exo-suits marching through the streets. The trailer doesn’t tell you much, other than what sounds like an unexpected ambush that no one was prepared for. “Biggest surprise attack in the history of the world” says one clip. The trailer later takes a turn that’s new for the "Call of Duty" franchise, which is gameplay in outer space. This is where fans start having their issues with the new game.

For starters, though the trailer is pretty obscure, "Halo" fans are up in arms about "Call of Duty" taking to space, since that crosses into "Halo’s" territory for being one of the most well-known game for its interstellar war-themed gameplay. Though there doesn’t seem to be any mention of aliens, the possibility is enough to have fans rolling their eyes.

The biggest concern I’ve seen about the new game is that the game creators seem to be taking too far of a step back from their original gameplay roots on the war zone. With older installments of the game series such as "Modern Warfare" and "Advanced Warfare," fans have been pretty annoyed with how futuristic the games have been getting. From exoskeleton suits to boost jumps, all the way to cloaking devices, one would think that fans would be excited about all of the new advances in these games (as well as to be expected in the upcoming game), seeing as it gives the game player many new things to do with their solider, as well as having them reach new heights.

What had fans on the edge of their seats with the new release of the game was the announcement of the inclusion of a remastered version of "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare," where the series began. Why I think fans show more excitement for the remastering of a classic "Call of Duty" game goes back to the factor of fans enjoying the games more when they stick to the classic war, "boots on the ground" type of gameplay. Add new, re-vamped graphics to that and you have fans more excited about an edited version of an old game rather than cheering for a sparkly, new futuristic game.

Whether you're excited about the new game or you're just in it for the "Call of Duty 4" remaster, both will be released on November 4, 2016.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
