With Xbox 360 gamers currently testing out Activision’s new subscription-based multiplayer service, Call Of Duty: Elite – and PS3 gamers getting access to the beta phase in the next few weeks – we did assume that PC gamers wouldn’t be left too far behind.

Unfortunately, PC gamers will have to wait a bit longer as Activision confirmed today that it won’t be available “until the Fall.” Call Of Duty Elite will launch alongside Modern Warfare 3 on November 8, which is currently set to overtake records lay down by the company’s previous blockbuster, Call Of Duty: Black Ops.

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 pre-orders are already tracking significantly ahead of Call of Duty: Black Ops at the same time last year," GAME Group's Managing Director, Tom Levine told MCV.

Taking into account that Black Ops is the biggest selling U.K. game of all time then that’s no mean feat.

"We know that the Call of Duty brand and franchise has the most amazing fan-base and we've got some great surprises lined up for those who pre-order with us. We're looking forward to an incredible launch on November 8th," he concluded.

As a big gamer I'm finding it increasing hard to even be bothered about a new COD coming out. I'm so glad it exists though as it seems to keep all the ‘leet gamerz’ off of other games and let me enjoy gaming.
is the d missing off the title due to the character limit?
Hand up, which idiot amongst us has pre-ordered the game?

Over-priced and game always gets hacked after a year and Activision / IW does nothing that fixes this. Then, they come with a new game.:censored:

This time, I wont buy the game like I did with MW and MW2, This time I'll pirate.

If you want to play it, buy it. If you think it sucks that badly then don't play it. Either way doesn't justify breaking the law.

Well put!

And just to re-enforce the point, HEXUS does not and will not condone piracy of any sort.
