Many, many people have already picked up copies of this year's Call of Duty entry, Modern Warfare 3. This we know. But what about those of you hoping against logic that the game -- one of the fastest selling media properties of all time -- would drop its price relatively close to launch? Bizarrely, your time has come, with Amazon offering Modern Warfare 3 for $50 (10 percent off) across Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, today only.
In fact, the entire stable of Call of Duty titles are on sale (not to mention various DS and Wii iterations) going all the way back to Modern Warfare 1. Amazon promises a day of Assassin's Creed savings tomorrow, so perhaps holding off on a purchase of Revelations this afternoon would be a smart move.

Well, after the announcement made earlier today, they clearly don't need the money.

It's $10 off not 10%, right?

@BlakeofT Yeah it's 10$ off which is actually about 17% off. A really good sale.

I just looked up the cod family. It includes:
Gadus macrocephalus - Pacific cod
Gadus morhua - Atlantic cod
Gadus ogac - Greenland cod
It turns out that many others with the "cod" surname aren't actually in the cod family!

$30 or no deal.
Did Activision even address the lag issue at all? B/c I did e-mail tech support about it and they e-mailed me back, saying that "...all lag issues have been resolved as of 11/24"

I'd like to try the Kill Confirmed mode but I'm so busy with other games, and the sweet spot is about $30.
Maybe when BF3 runs it's course. And Skyrim... Maybe 2013 then?
