Call of Duty Subscription Fee?

A few days ago I read that Activision would be introducing a subscription fee to the Modern Warfare Franchise and I thought On no! they finally are going to make us pay for playing Call of Duty online.

However, with a little further research it seems that it is a little more detailed than just an online fee. When you get your copy of Modern Warfare 3 you will have access to all the online features of the game including Spec-Ops. However there will be and extra version called Call of Duty Elite.

This is where the fee will come into play. If you want to pay the fee, which is said to be somewhere around or even less than the Netfilx 7.99 fee. You will get access to online bonus content like monthly map packs and social networking features not to mention a very detailed versions of stat tracking and performance charts.

This is good news that the subscription fee is optional for those of us who might not want to pay for the extra content. At least they are giving us a choice. On the other hand if the price is right it might be worth the extra pay if the quality of the content is exceptional .

Just remember that the feature is still in a infant stage and there could be and probably will be many more changes between now and when the game releases in early November.

Good News For PS3 Owners!

Over the past couple of years people have noticed that the two main versions of the Call of Duty series, Xbox 360 and PS3, have been somewhat different. The PS3 version has been sub-par to the Xbox version in several key issues. First of all the graphics were not nearly as good and we all know that the on-line experience was a lot more enjoyable on the 360 version. The PS3 version had way to many connection and server issues to be considered a great game.

However, recently some good news for PS3 owners has surfaced. When a Twitter user stated that "PS3 owners just want the same experience a Xbox owners" Infinity Wards own Robert Bowling added "I agree and ensuring that the PS3 version is equal to the Xbox 360 version of MW3 is very important to us in every way.” It's great to know that this version of Modern Warfare is going to be equal to the Xbox version, Hopefully!

Co-op Campaign Confirmed!

Infinity Ward has confirmed that Modern Warfare 3 will boast a Co-op single-player Campaign. This will go along with the already impressive multi-player, and Spec-ops modes, which were announced earlier this year. This will make Modern Warfare 3 much larger than the previous titles, which is very exciting for all the fans of the series. This big announcement makes the wait for the highly anticipated game seem even longer!

Modern Warfare 3 Confirmed For November!

One of the biggest game announces of the year has been Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3. It has been confirmed for early November, as with many of the previous Call of Duty releases. I'm sure it will be one of the best selling games of the year with it's great competitive multi-player and intense single-player campaign. However, with this being the third Modern Warfare in the series it may seem to be getting a little repetitive unless, Infinity Ward can come up with some interesting new modes or scenarios.
