Rock of Ages rolled (and rocked) onto XBL and PSN last week and is set to smash into Steam September 7, but if you're still unsure if campy political humor spreading the annals of history is for you, check out the launch trailer above and the screens below.

If these don't convince you, read our review. If all of that doesn't convince you, watch Life of Brian and then try it all again. If you're still unmoved to try Rock of Ages, check your pulse, because we're pretty sure you don't have a heart ('cause that's where the humor lives).

Activision argues that the person behind ModernWarfare3.com "has no right or legitimate interest in the Domain Name," a violation of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy, and wants the site under its own control. Activision has provided the panel with a two-page list of Modern Warfare's accomplishments as evidence of its right to the domain, or perhaps because it wants to see its "Best Shooter" award from CNN.com in writing. Activision claims the site contains copyrighted material, including the style of its Modern Warfare 3 header, and that the owner "supports the game Battlefield," quoting that it "urges visitors to 'grow up and forgettabout Modern Warfare 3 (because it looks just like Modern Warfare 2) and buy Battlefield 3 instead.'"

ModernWarfare3.com was purchased on March 26, 2009, almost two years before Modern Warfare 3 was officially announced, and until recently the website redirected users to Battlefield3.com. Currently its front page reads, "Warning: this website is under seige," with the above clip from Monty Python's Life of Brian re-dubbed to bash Modern Warfare 3.
