• Modern Warfare 3 Facebook and ELITE integration

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's social features sure do sound a treat, as explained in this article's video embed. Battlelog-esque, there's some deep integration that looks to improve your multiplayer experience. Unfortunately, it has been delayed for PC gamers. Not only is ELITE not launching on day one, but the developers have absolutely no date for us, not even an approximate a release window.

    This blow comes just after news that the freely available PC dedicated aren't actually ranked at all, and that to rank up you'll need to continue to use the dogs-breakfast P2P system that is IWNet. It's quite amazing how a game can look so good when the developers conceal a few key details, which once revealed leave it looking little better for PC gamers than the abomination that was Modern Warfare 2.

    If you have already purchased it, and you're not going to be asking for a refund, you can start pre-loading it on Steam now.

      Someone still wants it:

      "A truck containing around 6000 copies of Modern Warfare 3 was stolen in France this weekend, according to reports.

      "French site TFI News reports that the truck suffered a collision with a car on saturday morning in Créteil, south Paris, before two masked individuals emerged.

      "The criminals reportedly used tear gas to neutralise the truck drivers before hopping in and making off with the video game shipment said to be worth 400,000 Euros.

      "Separate reports say the truck contained a delivery of Activision's much-anticipated shooter, Modern Warfare 3 - an estimated 6000 copies of it.

      "This wouldn't be the first theft Activision has suffered, after an employee reportedly stole a copy of the game from a shipping warehouse in California before pirating the disc and uploading it to the internet.

      "Activision has warned that playing Modern Warfare 3 before it's official release is "not authorised" and that doing so may earn you a ban."
