COD4 Weekend Brings Double XP, Half-Priced Maps
3:40AM Mike Fahey | As we mentioned last week, this weekend is a special double XP weekend for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare players, though now it’s now an Xbox 360 only weekend, with PS3 fans most likely getting the treatment a week later. Also exclusive to Xbox Live is a special half price sale on the Game of the Year Variety map pack. The pack will be slashed from 800 Microsoft points to 400 from 12:01am Pacific on the 12th to midnight on the 14th, which coincides with the double XP event. Honestly I can’t see how anyone still playing Call of Duty 4 doesn’t already have this pack, but it’s a nice gesture. This weekend will also see members of Infinity Ward entering the fray between noon and 4pm on Saturday to play with their fans, so be sure to hit the jump, write down their gamertags, and start coming up with countless annoying questions to bombard them with as they struggle with the frustration of having to work on a Saturday.
Call Of Duty 4 Double XP Weekend Imminent
2:40AM Mike Fahey | Infinity Ward Director of Communications / Community Manager Robert Bowling reveals in his IAMfourzerotwo blog that he is currently readying promotional materials for a big Call of Duty 4 event taking place next weekend over Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network. In his post he drops those two little words that CoD players (mainly those of us that suck) love to hear: Double XP. I’m currently working on getting everything organised and together for an upcoming Xbox Live / PSN promotion we have coming up the weekend of Sept. 13th – 14th. Which isn’t this weekend, but next weekend. I will have exact details on what it is in the near future but I have a gut feeling it’ll have Double XP attached to it for all those hungry for some power-leveling on Call of Duty 4. Bowling further explained that he is hoping to get the new playlists finished in time to make it one big promotion. Woot! Double XP Is Imminent [IAMfourzerotwo] More »
COD4: 1.3 Million Online A Day
2:20AM Mike Fahey | It takes a ton of people playing online to consistently outperform Microsoft’s Halo 3 on the Xbox 360, but just how many people is a ton? According to Infinity Ward’s Mark Rubin, between 1.2 and 1.3 million players go play COD4 online every single day, Monday through Sunday, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. “That’s just 360. There’s even more on the other platforms [PS3 and PC], but we just don’t have the same numbering system. Overall, even without the other consoles, we are beating the competition. PS3 numbers are monstrously huge. No other game has come close, either online current, or total unique users in a day.” 1.3 million people playing per day on the Xbox 360 alone? Staggering numbers. to put that in perspective, if every one of those players gave me $US 1, I would be greatly appreciative. Nearly 1.3m play COD4 “every day” [Eurogamer] More »

4:20AM Mike Fahey | If you’re going to be in New York City or San Jose California and have a little free time on the 28th of March, you might want to stop by GameStop for a special Call of Duty 4 Variety Map Pack Challenge event. Be one of the first players to get your hands on Broadcast, Creek, Chinatown and Killhouse, the four new multiplayer maps coming out with the April 3rd DLC. Participate in Q&A sessions with developers, trivia contests, eye tests, and finally battle it out on the maps themselves for a chance at various prizes, including a $1,000 gift card. Attendees can register at the GameStop website, with the first few attendees receiving an Xbox Live token that lets you snag the pack for free. A first look at the maps, fabulous prizes, and the chance to hang out at a GameStop after closing hours. What more could a Call of Duty 4 player ask for? Feel free to contact the GameStop directly for a list of prizes, but be warned – the New York store’s manager Randy can’t find his packet. Poor Randy.

5:20AM Mike Fahey | Yahtzee isn’t all that fond of taking requests, but it seems that the horde of Call of Duty 4 fans hungry to see their favorite game get slapped in the face with Croshaw’s angry, spite-filled penis have moved him to action. In reviewing the game he comes to realise what we’ve known for months – Call of Duty 4 is just as good as a prostitute with three identical sets of genitalia. Of course he draws this conclusion out a good four minutes, but it is a very good four minutes indeed. I think I prefer it when he reviews games that he likes, as it seems to make him try harder.
