Call of Duty: Ghosts for PS3 listed by Tesco
Call of Duty:Ghosts box art has appeared through Tesco and the placeholder states it will be released in December. We say placeholder, because traditionally, CoD games are released in November. Since the listing appeared, a Target pre-order advert has appeared with a release date set for November 5 – which is more plausible.

Call of Duty warfare would wipe out humanity in six days
According to a new video from fictional world fan VSauce, the warfare presented in Call of Duty games is so patently ridiculous that if ever such a battle broke out and raged for just six days, the entire world’s population would be in the casualties list. If you’d like to play a realistic military sim instead, do pushups while your dad yells at you and then stand staring at the desert for eight hours a day. Black Ops 2, ladies and gentlemen! Significantly less boring than reality.
Thanks, Kotaku.
