Apparently after the 2nd MW2 map pack Activision may close Infinity Ward down for good. This means no modern warefare 3 by Infinity Ward. There's some more of this story on the front page news, but in summary of an investor's note states:
"Continued defections from their Infinity Ward studio have created meaningful uncertainty around the future of their Call of Duty: Modern Warfare franchise, we expect Infinity Ward studio will be essentially closed after their next map pack release, with development work on Modern Warfare 3 spread between two studios not historically tied to the franchise."
Looks like if anything is going to happen, its up to Treyarch and Sledgehammer to get anything going on MW3. However, Treyarch is supposed to announce its next CoD title on fri. No I don't think they are going to announce MW3 lol.
Its sad, but unf. if your company's investors are talking about closing the doors, its pretty much a done deal, esp. w/ that wopping 75-125 Million dollar lawsuit on Activision's desk. I don't want to use the word corruption, but its amazing how things like this can permeate into almost every facet of our lives.
