Activision Reveals Call of Duty Subscription Plans
dotarray writes "Activision has denied it and denied it, but now it's been revealed – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will feature an online service (that's what Call of Duty Elite is), complete with monthly subscription fees. 'Activision executives said they haven't yet figured out how much to charge for the service, but they expect the cost to be less than fees for comparable online-entertainment services, such as a $7.99-a-month Netflix Inc. movie subscription. Portions of the service will be free, including features inspired by Facebook Inc. that will let Call of Duty players meet for online gun battles with others who share various affiliations and interests. Another feature of the service will give Call of Duty players tools, modeled on those from stock-trading websites, to analyze their performance within the game, gauging factors such as which weapons have been most successful for them in killing enemies.'"

Despite the stupidity....
People will buy it, and be grateful.
I hope your ready for all games to follow the "success" of MW3 by going this route. I know MMOs have been doing this forever...but I don't play those for a few reasons...main one begin pay to play.
I wonder, will MW3 cost $60? I bet it will...maybe even $65!

Probably right. This game will be taking even more money from people than the past installments. $60 a year (probably, unless they do decide to raise it), along with whatever the cost for this will be. I will never buy a game that forces me to pay several dollars a MONTH to play.
I'm not speaking bad of people who enjoy these games, I'm just saying that I don't agree with how much of a cash cow this series has become (imo).
