More MW3 Leaks: Guns and Ghost

Full story and hat tip to sfx-360.com


Treyarch seems to be having a problem with leaks this week. In addition to the screen shots of a Treyarch employee playing an unreleased game titled Iron Wolf yesterday, we are now hearing rumors of the weapons to be in the highly anticipated release of Infinity Ward’s, Modern Warfare 3. The weapons resemble a hybrid collection of guns from Treyarch’s Black Ops and Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2.

There are 17 guns in total and a small video showing some them.

Battlefield 3 Limited Edition details revealed!

Published on August 4, 2011, by Luca Zanzi - Posted in News, PC, PS3, Xbox 360 0

In what has become an increasingly common trend by EA, gamers who preorder Battlefield 3 will be automatically upgraded to a “limited edition” of the game full of in-game goodies (like anyone in their right mind needed extra incentives to buy this on release day). By preordering the game at select retailers, players can expect redeemable codes for:

• Back to Karkand expansion: four multiplayer maps from Battlefield 2 have received a facelift, including Strike at Karkand, Gulf of Oman, and Sharqi Peninsula.
• Physical Warfare Pack: a set of three weapons, the Type 88 light machinegun with bipod mount; the SKS sniper rifle flash suppressor, an extra stealth measure for Recon soldiers; and flechette ammo for the DAO-12 semi-auto shotgun, which is the last thing you’d want poiting straight at your face during close encounters.
• SPECACT Kit: eight additional multiplayer skins, one for each class.
• Dog tag Pack: dog tags will serve as the game’s multiplayer signature, and this pack adds another five unique designs to choose from.

The Making of MW3: US Navy Seals Play a Big Part

This is just too cool. Read Michael Condrey's Blog post on R & D with the U.S. Navy Seals:

"Several years ago, long before Sledgehammer Games started working on Modern Warfare 3, I was given the book The Warrior Elite:  The Forging of SEAL Class 228, by Dick Couch.   It was the first book, of many since, that I've read about the lore of the US Navy Seals.   The Warrior Elite was a wonderfully told, thought-provoking story about the qualification process and training of a Navy Seal.  Dick's telling of the trials of BUD/S training was superb, and I was moved by the sheer grit and force of will it takes to survive Hell Week and become one of the Navy's most elite fighters.   Recently, I finished reading Lone Survivor, by Marcus Luttrell.  Lone Survivor told a similar moving story of the trials of BUD/S and Hell Week before dropping me into a heroic survival tale of a Seal combat mission in Afghanistan gone terribly wrong.  Those two books and many others, as well as the countless news reports of Navy Seal Team Six's capture of Bin Laden, are testimonies to the Navy Seals as one of the greatest assets in the US Armed Forces."
