COD6:MW2 for PS3... new content?

Postby jister on Thu Feb 04, 2010 5:08 pm

hey i got a mail on my PS3 account today saying:

Dear Gamers,
On behalf of Infinity Ward we are pleased to announce that 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare2' on the Playstation 3 platform will receive exclusive content such as weapons, perks, maps and a game mode similar to 'Nazi Zombies' from the predecessor. -(this all sounds good, but for the next part??)-
Those who send this message to all gamers in their friends list will only be eligable. We will track the sent messages, and if successful you will receive a message on the game's release day with further information.

Best Wishes
Sony Playstation

In Call of Duty: World at Wat there is a Nazi Zombie mode. However the spiritual predecessor of COD:MW2 is COD:MW; which doesn't have a Nazi Zombie mode. Idk man.

Sounds fishy to me.

It's clearly spam. No self-respecting company would force players to go through a chain-letter style process to be eligible to get what is described as pretty major things to include as paid DLC.

But, what's the goal of sending a chain-letter than?! With email it's for spammers to harvest emailadreses, but on PS3?..

Seeing as thats the stupidest, non legit sounding way to spread the word for a company...

Also, I.W. Didn't develope world at war, so they wouldnt reference it as "its predecessor", unless they were directly talking about MW1 which didnt have 'nazi' zombies...

And yeah that last part about "sony playstation", Since when the fuck would a corperation speak in the second person of a product they make?

This is the worst attempt at spam I've ever heard of, Hilarious!

Is it going to ONLY be on PS3 or just released earlier for PS3? Kind of a shitty move either way. I'd think the 360 or PC communities are way larger. Guess Sony offered the most for it though.

Seriously. My arse.

Sony fail wrote:we are pleased to announce that 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare2' on the Playstation 3 platform will receive exclusive content such as weapons, perks, maps and a game mode similar to 'Nazi Zombies' from the predecessor.


To quote a interview by OPM (Official Playstation Magazine) with IW:

So will you make a Nazi zombies mode where we can fight with real guns?
(Cross look) No. That's a different game. We're making our own experience, something very different.


DLC is Spec Ops and some of the old COD4 MP maps. New weapons/perks would unbalance the 'finely tuned' online experience (rather massively, and involve a hideous amount of patch)

Sony fail wrote:Those who send this message to all gamers in their friends list will only be eligable. We will track the sent messages, and if successful you will receive a message on the game's release day with further information.


I can smell the fail. Seriously. Unbelievable. Some people don't even try to make it believable these days.

Note: "game's release day"? Been and gone. Retards. If you honestly believe this, i.e. Zip, you'd have to be some sort of colossal idiot. Especially considering Xbox gets the content first, due to a rather interesting deal announced at E3 that involved - shock - microsofts money.

Banter, that message to send to friends is fake probably. The DLC could be real though. If Tundra is saying it's real then I believe him. He did some contract work at IW and his brother works at IW.

Forgive the necro, but I like being right.
