July 4th 2008: Call of Duty: World at War

Call of Duty: World at War completely changes the rules of engagement by redefining WWII gaming and thrusting players into the final tension-filled, unforgiving battles against a new ferocious enemy in the most dangerous and suspenseful action ever seen in WWII.

Powered by Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare technology, Call of Duty: World at War brings an uncensored edge to combat, as soldiers face the most harrowing and climatic European and Pacific battles in which an enemy, who knows no surrender and no retreat, will fight to the last breath, unleashing an arsenal of lethal surprising tactics. Peril and danger lurk throughout the battlefield as players combat the unknown risk of the new chaos of battle.

From the remains of Russia and the ruins of Berlin, to the beach and jungles of the deadly Pacific Theater, the volatile action takes on added depth as players employ new features that previously were only-available in multiplayer, including perks, rankings and online stats in up-to full four-player cooperative gameplay. New infantry and vehicle-based weapons, like the potent flamethrower, bring the battlefield ablaze.

June 27th 2008: Call of Duty Patch 1.7

Call of Duty 4 1.7 Patch Released Today! Fixes include an exploit that allowed players to access certain console dvars during multi-player matches, a crash that could occur when a Chinatown Sabotage match would go into over-time, and a bug where the MP icons (Bomb, Defend, Capture, etc) were always showing up as English regardless of the install language. A really small patch, makes you wonder when they're going to fix the other issues in the game, as well as adding Prestige and maybe more weapons? You woulda thought 1.6 could have done that, but that was too much to ask since we had to rely on Nvidia to sponsor our update. The past couple years we have seen a decrease in support for PC games when less than 5 years ago the PC gaming community was first to see anything new and updates came once a month. Hell I think there are some people still holding thier breath waiting for Valve to update Counter Strike Source, sombody get them to a store because you sure in the hell don't want to buy Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare on Steam, your update isnt coming. By the way, What happened to the riot shields?
