UPDATE: Modern Warfare 3 Is or is not Coming??

UPDATE: Seems like its not coming after all,

Activision, the publisher of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, says a countdown website hinting at the announcement of a Modern Warfare sequel next week is a hoax, a company representative says. Activision has nothing to do with it or the mailing of novelty dogtags to the speciality press today, viral promotions that both reference characters from the series.

“There seems to be a great deal of speculation about the next Call of Duty project. Let me be clear that we are not revealing yet,” a spokesperson told Kotaku. “Anything indicating otherwise is a hoax.”

That would include anything next week.

 

Modern Warfare 3 has been a game surrounded by rumors and mysteries, but it appears that in about 4 days we’ll have some new information regarding its release. Earlier today, That Videogame Blog received bloody dog tags which contained a link to a mysterious website, FindMakarov.com. The site appears to be a countdown for something relating to the next installment in the Modern Warfare series, and features that green, “digitalized” theme associated with the games. More details after the jump.

According to IPlayCOD.com, this is the only link that is contained on the server, and the domain was created 11 days ago. Makarov made it through Modern Warfare 2 without being killed, while Shepherd, his partner-in-crime, wasn’t so lucky. Below is an image of Shepherd’s dog tags, with a clearly visible phrase END THE WAR. We’ll be monitoring the site and let you know what the countdown reveals, so be sure to keep checking back for more news.

Cheers to Peter Duffy for the heads up on this :D
