As expected Modern Warfare 3 has been pirated and released online weeks before official launch. If you remember the same thing happened to Black ops and to Modern Warfare 2.
The disk was supposedly stolen from a shipping warehouse in California, where one employee managed to steal disc number 2 of 2. All it takes is one stolen disc to be ripped and uploaded online and instantly give "pirates" access to the most anticipated game this year. No doubt the pirates have hit the jackpot with pirating Modern Warfare 3.
How should Activision feel? Yes there biggest game has been pirated but this has happened years before, but they can still expect and enjoy their sales in the millions.
If you do plan on trying to get your hands on one of the pirated copies, think again. The same tactics are being used by investigators to knock on the pirates doors and ask them to delete their copies of the game. Obviously multiple back ups can be made but this just means that the punishment increases. A fine of $5000 could be given and a complete ban from online play. This was told by a pirate who did get caught and posted this message on craigslist so others do not go through the same.
There is less then 2 weeks to wait for modern warfare 3 so hopefully you will be able to wait that long.
LOl you will need cfw for the ps3 version and also the jailbreak v2 dongle that allows 3.60+ Call of duty games are bought by 95% of people for the online features a pirated copy of the game does no good to ps3 users, Most xbox users wont bother after going all super stealth with lt firmware. So over all this really isnt that big of a problem.
Now if you have a brain in your head you would realise that some copies arent ment for you to get the game they are released by activision to try to catch pirates. Its is now the 27th if you cant wait a damn week and a half you are a sad case anyways.
TS out.
