PEGI has handed out a “16” rating for Call of Duty: Ghosts, despite promotional material stating otherwise.

The classification is significant for one reason in particular. Not since 2008 has a Call of Duty game – World at War – earned an equivalent rating from the BBFC. Call of Duty releases are typically tagged with an “18” rating.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD wasn’t a completely internal Nintendo project. HexaDrive also worked on the game, according to the studio’s website.

HexaDrive is well-known for developing remakes and HD versions of games. The company was involved with Okami HD, Rez HD, and Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D.

We should mention that Hexadrive also worked on another recent Wii U release. The studio helped out Platinum Games for the creation of The Wonderful 101, too.

Robin Williams has done his fair share of gaming, having played the likes of Zelda and Call of Duty. But how familiar is he with the latest round of consoles?

When it comes to the Wii U, he hasn’t had a chance to see it yet (or the PlayStation 4 for that matter). Writing in a Reddit AMA, he said:
