Modern Warfare 4 Held Hostage

[Sh0ckFyre]

That attempt at getting an imaginary sequel, for free, no less, is the new definition of retarded. Seriously, do you think Infinity Ward is going to milk Call of Duty for all it's worth? I mean, sure they're gonna continue the franchise, but not go all the way up the bat shit bonkers ladder and make four Modern Warfare games.

wait they held hostages for a video game and they ask for "modern warfare 4" WTF!!!!

wow this makes us gamers look bad

Yeah it does. I really don't see what the big deal is anyway, isn't MW2 going to be $60?

I think this is genius. But I just they were a little more realistic and just ask for T-shirts or invite them to future MM beta testings or something.

If I was Infinity Ward I would reward this kind of fan love, but I can't just give away copies of my hard work for free.

who the hell would hold mw4 hostage even though the secound one isnt out...some people need to get lifes if they are going to such odds. see this is why all game companys are evil they make awsome stuff and then all the fans cant wait for more...

 

[WrongSprite]

Idiots. Infinity ward will give away a few games in a flash. They should have demanded a few grand.

 

[Davey Woo]

Modern Warfare FOUR anyone?

That or they'll rename the game by the 4th installment. Or they could add a modern warfare 4 section to an already existing website.
Or something else.

I don't think they'll bite.

 

[Ancientgamer]

hey, I'd join.

 

[sune26]

Just use ModernwarfareIV.com pff there are lot of other ways to do it

 

[13lackfriday]

Well that's stupid and self-centered.
I thought they'd do something that would benefit the whole, victimized COD community, like demand Activision stop dicking around with the pricing.

Besides, they can just make it codmw4.com
Shorter anyways.

Cybersquatting laws seem like such bull to me. If Activision really wants it, they'll just get it, because that's how the Anticybersquatting Act works. It's pretty unfair, because it basically says: "yes, that domain is yours, but this guy over here has a better reason to use it, so it's not yours anymore. Ahahahah, go away, sad little man."

That said, I appreciate what they're doing, and that they're doing it in a humorous way, and likely for a lark, not for any serious reason cybersquatting-esque reason.

it's awesome how they thought of this, I hope they get somekind of fake copy of MW4 with normal packaging and everything and a disc in it when put into console says something like
"if you pay the fee,
you might get
the game which you plea
and before you forget
it will make you scream with glee

 

[plastic_window]

This tickles me.

I don't know how the legal battle - if there is one - will happen, but the message they originally wrote was funny.

 

[rowan-thats-me]

jusr curious, how many members are on zlip.com, also, us escapists should do it for elder scrolls 6

 

[hansari]

What if they decide not to call it Modern Warfare 4?

Instead of Bioshock2.com, the site is called somethinginthesea.com

They could do the same here...use a witty phrase from the game....I doubt anyone will care.

 

[Socken]

That is as brilliant as it is hilarious.

 

[Daveman]

how do people find this shit out?

btw, I'm totally getting "halflife2:episode18.com" ...
because they're never going to get to fucking halflife 3 i swear!

 

[Sparrow]

I'm going to join that group right now. Not only for the lulz, but the free copy!

Personally, I hope Activison complies with these demands immediately and sends the Ziip community disks labled MW4, and when you play it, it rickrolls you.

Oh god that would be an epic win for Activison. i lol'd
