Do you want to be amongst the first to play Call of Duy 4: Modern Warfare?  Activision and Infinity Ward are inviting players to be amongst the first to play Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare at select Gamestop locations.  This goes down on Wednesday, October 17th.  Those who get there at 2100 hrs (9:00pm, local standard time) will get the chance to try out the single player version before the game’s release on November 6th.

The locations chosen for this event are Dallas, Houston, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Atlanta, San Francisco, Washington D.C. and Minneapolis.  You can find out the details at each location here.  Make sure you’re 17 years of age or older because COD4 is an M rated title.

I’m hesitant to recommend this one due to the complaints I’ve received and heard about “suspect” behavior but due to the fact that I’ll be logging some hours this week, I’m listing it as the Play of the Week.

I want to get together with friends on this one so let me know if you’re up for some Call of Duty 4 Mutliplayer Beta action this week.  I know DDB are up for it.

I’m sure you’re all aware or most of you at least that the CharlieOscarDelta site is temporarily unavailable.  I have news of a workaround for those of you interested in obtaining a beta code invite.

The Infinity Ward team has posted details on how to be amongst the first wave of lucky folks to enter the COD4 Multiplayer Beta.  Better hurry because this is apparently a select group.

I know, I know.  Forget about the Call of Duty 4 media right?  You guys and girls want information about the COD4 MP Beta don’t you?  Well, I have none.  Just sit tight and watch charlieoscardelta for the count down.  In the meantime, I’m going to hit you with a pretty exciting trailer whether you like it or not.  It’s the latest media for Call of Duty 4 showcasing the multiplayer perks in the game.

It appears listed on Xbox.com as being available today.  I highly doubt that Activision would let something of this magnitude out without updating its CharlieOscarDelta site first but who knows.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Multiplayer Beta (Free) - 8/17
This beta is a just a taste of the full Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare mulitplayer experience and features just a few early versions of the maps and modes in the game.”

That’s what the Xbox Live Marketplace ticker says on Xbox.com.  We know it’ll be this month as I tipped you all last month.  What day grasshopper?  That’s the question we all need to know.

Thanks to my friends at X3F and their readers for shining the light on this.

Activision shared the latest batch of screenshots for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.  Are you ready for the multiplayer beta?

Remember the exciting news coming out of E3 2007 from Infinity Ward that there would be a Call of Duty 4 Multiplayer Beta?  Fans across the world screamed for joy with hopes of soon playing one of the holiday’s most anticipated titles a bit early.  Well, most of you can still scream for joy if ofcourse most of you are US Xbox 360 owners.

It appears that the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare beta is going to exclude our friends from down under as well as anyone else not in the US.  Activision Australia has apparently leaked the news that it will be US only.  Add that to the fact that only a select number of beta invites will be given out and a bit of the “excitement” surrounding the beta has disappeared.

I knew one day that being from Texas would be a good thing.  What say you mates?

Who’s ready for the Public Multiplayer Beta for Call of Duy 4: Modern Warfare?  Infinity Ward plans to unleash the beta this August!  The exact date in August has yet to be determined.  It doesn’t appear to be a long wait though because August just so happens to be next month!

This has been in the works for a while I would imagine if you consider that it will have been only weeks after E3, that they’ll be ready to launch.  CharlieOscarDelta should have some details on how entries will be handled.  One thing is on my mind about this. Will you have to buy a game to enter?  I’m sure you won’t.  (at least I hope not)

Activision sent some new screenshots for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare over the weekend and here they are posted on U360’s Flickr.  I’m ready for this franchise to move out of the WWII era and finally it’s going to happen.

I just wanted to update all the Call of Duty 3 fans this morning on the Valor Map Pack issues.  According to the COD3 Team, the issue has been resolved.  Here’s a statement from the team.

Call of Duty 3

Hi Call of Duty 3 fans:

Thank you for your patience as we worked to resolve the issue surrounding the Valor map pack.  We are happy to announce that we have resolved it, and that the map pack is now fully available for download over Xbox Live Marketplace.  We have also released a Title Update which, in addition to addressing the map pack, also remedies key issues regarding Ranked Lobbies and Ranked Matches that some users have experienced.

If you downloaded the Map Pack on January 18, please download the new Title Update which resolves these issues.  If for any reason you deleted the Valor Map Pack after your purchase, you are entitled to re-download it without charge.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, and look forward to playing you in the new maps!
