The Content Season DLC for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be available for the Elite Premium members of Xbox Live on January 24, 2012.
Beginning on January 24 for Xbox Live users, all premium members of Call of Duty Elite will be able to get the first Modern Warfare 3 downloadable content of a nine month periodic release.
New content comes to Xbox 360 users first.
It’s already been proven that Activision's newest entry into the Call of Duty franchise does, in fact, print money, but the six million players who paid extra for “Elite” status have yet to see a return on their investment.
Infinity Ward adds some new content that won't cost you a dime.
There are a lot of people playing Modern Warfare 3 and with a large gaming community comes a large spring of creativity from which to draw. Since the game went live back in November, players have been building custom play modes in order to create more unique and interesting gaming experiences. Well it seems that Infinity Ward has been paying close attention, as today they are updating the Modern Warfare 3 playlists, modifying existing game modes and adding some entirely new ones that may be familiar to a few of you out there.
Which breaks the entertainment record set by James Cameron's Avatar in 2009.
As expected, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has been a massive success for Activision. Like past installments, the game has grossed in the billions; however, Modern Warfare 3 has managed to reach the mark faster than any other. In just 16 days, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has made $1 billion. This surpasses a record set by James Cameron's 2009 film Avatar, which grossed $1 billion in 17 days. This data is according to Charttrack and retail customer information.
Available now for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Black Ops.
It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but that doesn’t stop it from offering one smooth ride.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 may just be their best game yet. While this game will by no means reinvent the genre it does provide a number of noticeable tweaks that help to refine the overall experience, while continuing to remain true to past iterations in the franchise.
The Ban Hammer taketh away...
Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert Bowling announced on Twitter that over 1600 bans have been given out to those who cheat in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. The bans were issued to stop "Any attempt to cheat, hack, or glitch" the game.
Scientists find that Call of Duty can actually print money!
On the heels of a record breaking first day, Activision has announced that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has done the expected and shattered the five-day sales record for all entertainment-based media. The game has taken in a staggering $775 million worldwide in that timeframe, destroying the previous record held by last year’s Black Ops that made $650 million in the same span and Modern Warfare 2’s $550 million.
Even exchanging the game may not help.
Modern Warfare 3 has hit stores in force, dominating the market beyond even the most generous expectations. Selling over 9 million copies in one week alone, Activision’s cash cow shows no signs of needing to be put out to pasture. That’s not to say that the game’s launch hasn’t had its share of snafus, however; besides some people trying to get their hands on the game in some dubious ways and Call of Duty Elite not working quite right yet, you can add a bizarre disc read error on the 360 to the list of issues surrounding this huge launch.
