Sony this week announced a new DualShock 4 controller--it's camouflage green and looks pretty cool. It goes on sale in late December.

Activision has always said it doesn't think Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare can sell as well as Black Ops 3, and now the evidence is bearing that out. Early Steam data shows that Infinite Warfare players are down significantly from Black Ops 3.
