Modern Warfare 3 - Pirated Copies Released
Source: You must login or register to view this content.// By: Wondoh // 27th October 2011



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.

i dont know if this has been answered, i dont feel like going through 7 pages, but xbox will have two discs, more than likely one for campaign and one for multiplayer, but if you install them onto your harddrive i think you can play it like its one disk. but for ps3, it will be on one disk because ps3 supports blueray, which can hold like 26GB. i think xbox can only hold about 10GB
