Infinity Ward teams up with Sledgehammer games and Raven Software to bring the newest addition to the Call of Duty series, Modern Warfare 3. This fast paced first person shooter is sure to have gamers on the edge of their seats. MW3 has three game types: Single player, Multiplayer, and Spec Ops. The single player takes place minutes after MW2. It will take you on an expedition on three different continents. Paris, England, and New York to name a few. The multiplayer aspect of the game is sure to have many hours of gameplay with some tweaks from MW2. Infinity Ward's version of zombies will be spec ops.
