Trailers: First look at MW2 “Stimulus Package”
Not really much of a look, but from what we can see the new maps look pretty cool. Not $15 cool, but cool.

The two old maps are “Crash” and “Overgrown.” The three new maps are “‘Bailout,’ a multi-level apartment complex; ‘Storm,’ an open industrial park littered with heavy machinery; ‘Salvage,’ a snowy junkyard fortified by stacked debris and crushed cars,” according to the pack’s Xbox Live Marketplace description, which has since been pulled. The $15 for three new maps? Well, that’s a mite bit psychotic.

Yup. No pricing or gameplay details yet, but it has been confirmed that the DLC is a timed Xbox 360 exclusive. No word on when the PS3 and PC versions will be coming, but I’d bet it won’t be too long. That’s pretty much all there is to it.
Author: CodyRandom: “No Russian,” no problem
Apparently, this video was made almost entirely from in-game action running on the PC version of Modern Warfare 2, but it was recorded at different camera angles and cut up to look real, real classy. First of all, I can’t believe how monumentally superior the PC version looks in comparison to the 360…makes me want to upgrade my PC and play me some pretty games. But more important than my expensive desires are my respected opinions, and I think that this machinima fellow Michael Barnes deserves a job at Infinity Ward. He certainly made a more entertaining “No Russian” than the IW guys could manage. Whether that has anything to do with the current techniques of first-person-stories is a conversation for another time.

"I find your lack of faith disturbing."
Over the past 24 hours, the web has been aflame with rumors of Jason West and Vince Zampella’s departures from Modern Warfare 2 developer Infinity Ward. Few details are actually known at this time, but it has been confirmed through West and Zampella’s respective Linkedin profiles that they are no longer under the employ of Infinity Ward as of “March 2010.”

Rumor has it that Infinity Ward is moving on from the Call of Duty franchise after eight years in order to work on a brand new IP for Activision. Said rumor also suggests that the newly minted Sledgehammer Games could be taking on development of Modern Warfare 3.

Busted – When killed by a player using the “Blunt Trauma” or “Joint Ops” titles, a real-life police car is immediately dispatched to their house.
"It's funny because they put the words 'Joint' and 'Blunt' over a pot leaf. Plus, it lets everybody know that I like the weed!"
Review: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Score: Great
Difficulty played on: Hardened
Time to beat: 5-6 hours
Loved the most: Special-Ops mode.
Hated the most: Ridiculous and muddled story with plot holes the size of Texas.
Here it is–the game that everybody’s been waiting for for two years. Ever since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare revolutionized the FPS genre people have been eagerly awaiting Infinity Ward’s next effort and Activision has been all too happy to oblige the anticipation with one of the largest hype machines video games have ever seen. Realistically though, it would be an incredible feat for Modern Warfare 2 to even come close to setting the standards that its predecessor did. But those are the expectations that were created, and much like the case of Halo 3, the actual product is a shadow of the hype surrounding it. That doesn’t stop Modern Warfare 2 from being an incredibly fun and addictive game though; it’s just one that’s stagnated and in some situations, even regressed from the classic that came before it.

Insane. Speaking of which, I’ve been playing quite a bit of Modern Warfare 2 this week. So sorry I haven’t been posting news, but I promise I’ll get some up soon. And you can expect the review by Monday at the latest, because it needs to be done in time for me to jump into Assassin’s Creed II. Gotta love how all the great games are jammed into the same 4 weeks.
