Shooter is now officially the biggest game on PlayStation 3, according to Chart Track data
And to celebrate, the publisher plans to celebrate with a high profile consumer event.
Alongside a renewed marketing push that will include online promotions with The Sun, SkySports, FHM, Kerrang and the MSN network, Activision will be inviting gamers to a special Boot Camp event where they can play for prizes.
“Call of Duty is now one of the largest video game franchises worldwide, and this has been achieved by combining a truly groundbreaking game with creative marketing campaigns that reach out to casual gamers as well as to core FPS players,” said Activision marketing director David Tyler.
“A whole programme of Call of Duty 4 related activities are in place for spring and summer. The Boot Camp event and refreshed marketing campaign are two examples of our ongoing commitment to this astonishing game.”
Activision also recently revealed that Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare had sold over seven million units worldwide, including over a million in the UK.

Maps?
So the maps are out at the beginning of april?
Re: Maps?
The Game is definitely great but one thing that will always need fixing is the lobby system. You can not select from a list of rooms which has the best ping. You can not kick unwanted players from your room if you are the host and you can't even mute some annoying kid who is screeming on the mic. The lobby system fellas should be like socom 2. Please fix it so we can have these at the bare minimum.
Re: KILLA_SAM
yes but that is not all IW's fault, they put out a patch, but it is still at sony right now, and that patch would enable muting abilites as well as other wanted features.
