A few weeks ago, we reported that FourTwoZero was testing out some user submitted game modes and creating a new game mode playlist. Well now, he has confirmed that several of the modes will be featured in the game via an upcoming update, although no release date was announced. While we aren't sure which ones for sure will make it to the release, you can check out a few of the possibilities below:

Although we focus primarily on the Modern Combat aspect of Call of Duty, since news has been slow this week we thought we would let you know about a new World At War video interview. The video, which was posted on GameTrailers, comes from this year\'s E3 event and interviews several key World At War developers. Head on over to GameTrailers to check out the full interview. 

In a new blog post, FourTwoZero has provided some insight into the future of Infinity Ward, specifically with regards to their relationship involving Activision, their involvement in the community, and the expansion of their studio. You can get a snippet from the post below, and to read the full thing checkout the FourTwoZero Blog.

I missed this one on Friday since I was out of town, but a new patch has been released for Call of Duty 4. The update, version 1.7, is an incremental upgrade patch, meaning that you must download and install version 1.6 in order for it to work. Here are all the changes and fixes in the update: You can download the new 1.7 patch from us below. Remember that you MUST install the 1.6 patch first for the patch to work properly. A link to the 1.6 patch can be found below as well. - Download New Incremental Patch Version 1.7- Download Patch Version 1.6

While many Call of Duty gamers, including myself, anticipated Call of Duty 6 (yes 6!) returning to the modern combat theater, it appears the title may be moving in a totally new direction. Rumors from Computer & Video Games are now circling that the next title will have a science fiction basis, somewhat similar to Battlefield 2142. Remember this is a rumor, as C&VG reminds you to take it with "a pinch of salt". We will keep you posted as more information becomes available.

With the release of World At War not too far off in the future, Activision has redesigned and relaunched their official site to serve all Call of Duty titles. Call of Duty.com has officially relaunched today with an entirely new theme, and a new name, now known as Call of Duty HQ. This website, which replaces the now defunct CharlieOscarDelta which served as the Official Call of Duty 4 website, will serve as the official portal for all of the Call of Duty games. Check out the newly launched Official Call Of Duty HQ today!

Gametrailers has the Call of Duty:World at War Full Length Debut Trailer. Check it out HERE.


The first trailer for Call of Duty: World at War will be revealed this weekend, according to an announcement by Microsoft. The premiere video will be available from the Xbox 360's Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
From Microsoft:

Activision has released a new patch for Call of Duty 4 this afternoon, version 1.6. The patch includes several fixes, but most importantly includes several new maps that had been released on console, but had yet to make it to PC. A download link and full list of fixes and changes can be found below. - Download The Call of Duty 4 1.6 Patch Here!

Mac users waiting to get their hands on Call of Duty 4 will now have to wait even longer. Aspyr, the developing studio for the Mac version, today announced that the game's release date was pushed back to third quarter 2008. We will let you know if more information develops.

Nivida is sponsoring the PC Variety Map Pack. This means that the PC will get it for free.

FourZeroTwo has an update for us via his blog.
Wonder what the news is for the PC players? DL content may be or maybe the 1.6 patch news. Guess we will have to wait and see.

If for some reason you still haven't picked up Call of Duty 4 yet, Valve has put forth quite an incentive. You can now purchase Call of Duty 4 through Steam for 20% off the regular price. The only catch is that you must purchase it before Tuesday, otherwise you will have to pay full price. For more head on over to the Steam Website.
