Trailers: Modern Warfare 3 DLC plans detailed
Ugh…the new “season” of Modern Warfare 3 starts January 24th (for 360 owners at least). Maybe Infinity Ward can spend the offseason coming up with some marketing angles that aren’t ridiculously stupid and unrelated to the game in every way. Or better yet, maybe they can make a better game with simple and intuitive online leagues so that it actually makes sense to have a “season.”

Trailers: But did you ever stop to consider your gun’s experiences and feelings?
Maybe it doesn’t want to wantonly destroy everything that moves for the simple purpose of achieving a higher kill/death ratio and unlocking better stuff to kill with. Oh, who am I kidding? This is Modern Warfare 3, where you have perks, your guns have perks, and pretty soon the bullets will too! Remember the olden days when a player could jump into a deathmatch and not feel like he’d entered the introductory sewer levels of an RPG? Actually…if they start adding rodents of unusual size to Call of Duty, I might have to get back into the franchise.

What you see above is a trailer for Modern Warfare 3, the game that Sledgehammer helped to develop after the highly publicized mass exodus of Infinity Ward employees left that studio reeling in the midst of development. And for what it’s worth, the branching Point Streak concept sounds like a pretty cool development that will reward varying play styles, though the Specialist sounds a bit overpowered to me. But how have Sledgehammer’s redirected efforts affected the Third-Person Call of Duty Action-Adventure that they came to Activision to work on?
Author: CodyReactions: Modern Warfare 3 to feature 32 player mutliplayer?
If too many years of annual releases haven’t left you searching for a magic pill to reinvigorate your virtual bloodlust, then you might perk up at the thought of all the hot action above taking place between 32 players. According to sfx-360, the pussy’s out of the bag on Modern Warfare 3‘s biggest secret.

Okay, you might be a little confused by that headline. To be fair, the video above has nothing to do with it; that’s just a little sample of Modern Warfare 3‘s “Survival” mode. But onto the good stuff!
Author: CodyTrailers: Modern Warfare 3 debut trailer
Pretty much what you’d expect–nothing more, nothing less. If you aren’t burnt out on the series’ standard gameplay by now and you still care what happens to the characters, then I’m sure Modern Warfare 3 will offer some of the most exciting set pieces in the business along the way. If you’re looking for something a little more fresh, then you might want to buy $60 worth of fruit while you wait for the FPS to pursue some new avenues. You might want to spread that $60 out over a few years, though.

But before we get to that I thought I’d share this trailer for Black Ops‘ first DLC map-pack. Looks like it could be fun, although “Berlin Wall” is kidding itself if it thinks it can compete with the Sniping perfect that was “Bull’s eye Bridge” on Medal of Honor: Frontline. But I digress…
Author: CodyReactions: 2nd Modern Warfare 2 map pack due out June 3rd
Little more than a month after the release of the “Stimulus Package,” which has sold over 2.5 million units so far, Activision and Infinity Ward (or what’s left of them) are prepping the release of another map pack, titled “Resurgence Pack.” The downloadable content will go for the same $15 as the first map pack, and will feature five maps, two of them Modern Warfare 1 remakes, just like the “Stimulus Package.” The new maps (pictures in link) are Carnival, Trailer Park, and Fuel. The remakes are of Strike and Vacant.
Author: CodyReactions: Former Infinity Ward heads Respawning with EA
One of the biggest stories within the industry over the past couple months took an interesting turn on Monday, as Jason West and Vince Zampella, the former heads of Infinity Ward who were fired by publisher Activision for alleged breach of contract, have formed a new studio by the name of Respawn Entertainment. West and Zampella went out of their way to ensure that all Intellectual Properties created at Respawn will be wholly owned by the studio, but that hasn’t stopped EA from supporting the respected developers through the EA Partners program. EA is already funding Respawn as it searches for offices and builds its roster, and whenever the studio’s first game comes out, it will be published by Acitivision’s biggest rival.
