According to USA Today, Activision and Infinity Ward have a new Modern Warfare 2 trailer debuting during Sunday Night Football. It'll play sometime during the game between the San Diego Chargers and the Pittsburgh Steelers at 8PM ET (5PM PT).

Your options:

Watch the game live ... wow, really? Still do that, eh?
TiVo the game -- maybe watch the football, definitely watch the trailer.
Go about your life, skip the football and check the internet sometime Sunday night, because the trailer will be everywhere.

Yeah, he's a nerd because he doesn't like watching a bunch of guys on steroids in tights smack each other's ass all night.

Pfftt...

+1 Sam...I have to go watch that episode of Mr. Hat talking reckless.....

ddub @ Oct 2nd 2009 7:57PM

Sly (Now equipped with DS!) @ Oct 2nd 2009 8:24PM

just because they're bigger than you'll ever be doesn't mean they're on steroids...

Football is for the devil.

@PSN: John-Paul-Jones : Wow, harsh words for someone posting on a video game blog, real tough. For your information I am not a "skinny little pussy" I weigh 152 lbs (hardly any fat), I do MMA, and I free-run. Even if I WAS what you say, who cares. That's not really relevant to what I said.

yeah still nerdy

Solace @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:15PM

God I hope Pink doesnt do the SNF intro anymore

tmacairjordan87 @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:16PM

Well, I'm going to watch the game anyway so this is just an extra bonus. The problem I'm going to deal with is being a Broncos fan and rooting for the Chargers. My hate for the Steelers is that strong.

Solace @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:21PM

...FAIL

TORO @ Oct 2nd 2009 8:26PM

Another problem you'll soon realize is having Kyle Orton as your quarterback ;) the worst 3-0 team???

tmacairjordan87 @ Oct 2nd 2009 8:30PM

There's no such thing, 3-0 is 3-0. This isn't college :P

Linkb8s (XBL: Tenku no Link) @ Oct 2nd 2009 8:31PM

@ TORO, because Jay Cutler is better? The man who pretty much has found a way to keep his team out of the playoffs.

CheeziePotato (PSN: talic10 | XBL: InfiniteMovie) @ Oct 2nd 2009 10:28PM

@tmac
The Cowboys are going to kill the Broncos

PhilipJFryrish @ Oct 3rd 2009 1:29PM

As a Broncos fan and a Steeler hater, I will still pull for the Steelers in this game because I hate Philip Rivers more and the Chargers are in our division. A true fan would never root for a division rival.

Solace @ Oct 3rd 2009 4:33PM

Thank You Philip no fan EVER roots for a team in their own division this early in a season. Unless that team could help you with seeding or knock another team out of the playoffs you dont root for them and if you do its a FAIL

tmacairjordan87 @ Oct 3rd 2009 4:36PM

I don't need anyone else telling me what a fan is. I'm tired of seeing the Steelers win, when they always do it 10-3 or 6-0. They're like the Spurs of the NFL, most boring team ever to watch and I don't want to see them in the super bowl or playoffs again.

[ArchiGamer] [Soon to be a major religion] @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:19PM

Do we really need commercials for this? Its almost guaranteed to sell anyway.

Unless you've lived under a rock, then this commercial is just for you.

Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:24PM

shockingly some people either are still on the fence about it or no nothing about it...not everyone is on Gaming blogs and message boards all the time

Traceur_Ryuk [All Digital until December] (PSN: Ryuk_shinigami) @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:34PM

"not everyone is on Gaming blogs and message boards all the time"

True, but with how mainstream COD4 is I would say most people know about it. I would say it's definitely reached Halo and Guitar hero status.

Vcize @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:42PM

Yet Halo and Guitar Hero still have advertisements as well. Funny how that works.

Mr Khan @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:44PM

That's the fun of it. The games that probably don't need advertising get it in spades, the games that definitely do are the ones that are neglected.

[ArchiGamer] [Soon to be a major religion] @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:45PM

Both of you are correct.

Even though MW isn't as known as say Halo, its still somewhat recognized by a select few. And this commercial is more for those on the fence or have really never heard of this franchise.

Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:45PM

Mainstream or not...some people JUST DON'T remember things....If it WASN'T for the MASSIVE campaign that Halo 3 had it would not have sold as good as it did....

but thanks to it being EVERYWHERE(only place it wasn't was McDonald's Happy Meals) it sold like HOTCAKES....

iluvmyzune @ Oct 2nd 2009 7:36PM

aggie ceo, doesn't your gamertag imply your a texas a&m aggies fan?

Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Oct 2nd 2009 9:59PM

sure if you think those are the ONLY Aggies in the world...

xgarryx(warXroutine on LIVE and PSN) @ Oct 3rd 2009 1:07PM

yea where are they ads for uncharted 2????
that game is gonna be epic! i havnt seen one ad for it !

also my 360 is already awaiting MW2 no commercial is necessary ofr me:).

Chris D.(PSN: Aggie_CEO | XBL:The Aggie CEO | Steam: Aggie_CEO @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:25PM

I'll just watch it online later...don't really care for the Steelers or Chargers....so Sunday around that time I will be watching......ANIMATION DOMINATION!!!

styleznma @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:32PM

Do we really need this commercial$$$ on sunday night football? Save the money for development of something extra!; its already widely known; why not web cast the commercial instead of paying for a spot on prime time tv land? unless of course microsoft is flipping the bill then by all means air it once an hour on the hour...

jynxycat @ Oct 2nd 2009 7:09PM

I stopped at $$$.

meth0dical @ Oct 2nd 2009 8:29PM

Profit

B3astofthe3ast @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:32PM

I don't care for grown men in tights kicking and grabbing a ball. So option 3 for me.

[ArchiGamer] [Soon to be a major religion] @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:36PM

Well not everyone is into wrestling, so just beca-oh wait, you meant football, never mind.....

WiiFTW @ Oct 2nd 2009 6:47PM

You can make absolutely anything retarded if you like playing it that way.

Soccer - grown men kicking a ball and acting injured every time they're hit
Baseball - grown men hitting a small ball with a wooden stick, and trying to touch other grown men
B3astofthe3ast - Lonely Joystiq commenter who takes out his shortcomings on sports that he doesn't enjoy.

Not saying you can't dislike sports, it's just that you better have some better reasoning than dumb troll shit.

Isn't it fun?

B3astofthe3ast @ Oct 2nd 2009 7:26PM

I never really liked football, I admit it(My parents are from Egypt so soccer was always on the TV), but what I really don't like are the locker room stories my former football playing friends tells me...and thus my comment is with some merit, assuming these stories are widespread through football players.

Not saying other sports don't suffer, but I've heard the worst from football...
