More Details on Modern Warfare 3 (Updated)
From Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's Blog:
Activision did not release details of Modern Warfare 3's competitive multiplayer mode yet, keeping that reveal for the Call of Duty XP event on Labor Day weekend. The mode and its maps will probably be the favorite component of Modern Warfare 3, because of the dominating overall performance of previous Modern Warfare and Call of Duty games. Although the maps have not been revealed, it is likely that the multiplayer won't be drastically diverse from that of recent franchise installments, pitting gamers versus each other in first person shooter competition, using a combination of weapon upgrades and gameplay perks.
"How you play team deathmatch is all about your sightlines, your viewpoints-like I said, the hotspots," Bowling added. "I'm coming around the corner. I don't want to have to worry about being shot from 50 different angles. I want to be able to know, 'OK, I cleared the top floor, I cleared the second floor, I cleared the base, I'm good in this area. OK, now I'm coming through this doorway, I have to watch this doorway, this alleyway and this spot.' And then, when you're playing objective [matches], you need to be able to know the routes and break them down in your head as you play the areas. Like Search and Destroy… I know I've cleared this area. There's no way this guy can get there. And then going in an adding the fun secret stuff that people find three months into playing, like 'Did you know if you run up the tail of the plane in Afghan you can leap to the top of the mountain instead of circling around to the route that everyone is covering?'"

Call of Duty Elite: Theater Mode
I just posted an article earlier that contained 15 leaked images of the Call of Duty Elite Beta and I have to say one of the images in particular caught my eye; the theater mode (video editor) image. Source: modernwarfare247.
This looks to be a major upgrade over the current Black Ops theater system. In fact, this looks like a complete in house video editing system. While it might not be Sony Vegas, it sure looks like plenty of options will be available: adding music, sound effects, transitions, "bubbles" (annotations???).
Whatever it is, it looks pretty awesome. The question is; Will this be free or part of the paid subscription?
I also want to know if this editor will render and allow a direct upload to a Youtube channel (your own channel)? If it does it looks like it will handle movies up to 6 minutes in length, much better than Treyarch's current 30 second clip size.
What do you guys think? Next article will be an opinion piece on the emblems and prize system for Call of Duty Elite. Look for it soon!

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."

Supreme Court Rules Against Violent Video Game Ban (California Law)
In a major win for the video game industry and Free Speech, the United States Supreme Court has struck down California's game law. It was a 7-2 decision, ruling that California's law forbidding the sale or rental of violent games to minors do not comport with the First Amendment. In short: The Game industry won.
The 92-page decision boils down to the following passage:
"This country has no tradition of specially restricting children’s access to depictions of violence. And California’s claim that 'interactive' video games present special problems, in that the player participates in the violent action on screen and determines its out-come, is unpersuasive."
