But that can't be right, we all know from Black that you can put 95 rounds in a 20 round magazine.

As an aside, how does this square with the usual rule against bootlegs? I know we didn't allow screencaps from the leaked build of Crysis 2; is the rule against taking images from a leaked copy yourself? I ask because I've got a couple of shots of STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl from the leaked alpha lying around my hard drive, include the cut minigun and a shot of a PKM on a monopod in Bar.

It looks even a bit too long to be 20 rounds

Hahaha, another CoD game?
Any bets on how long before Activision bleeds this series dry and drops it like they did with Guitar Hero?

One game a year isn't a bad pace. GH died because they put out FIVE games in one year once. Plus, Rock Band was better, so GH was more like the MoH series.

I wonder if the ksg will be nerfed to 4 rounds online.

I'm sort of ambivalent about it. I loved the first one, beat it in the space of an afternoon at the Fraternity house, but the second one, aside from the gun issues, I thought had such a sub-par story that I really would only care to play the third one just to see what happens to Foley and Rameriz.

I'm not starting a Modern Warfare 3 page on the main site with these images, if that's what you mean. I figured there'd be nothing wrong with linking to them here on the forum for us all to scrutinize IW for their every little mistake, but if the mods disagree, I can remove the link and this thread can be closed.

Indeed there is. Well, a "red" member called Temp89 made it, and I'm not him (my name on the main site is the same as it is here on the forum).

I've just gone through it and removed the "the following weapons" header, any references to anything being "in-game" or "returning" and the upcoming template, since that says the images are from "official trailers or sources" and we don't yet know if even one of these is actually an authentic game image. Granted, if it's a hoax it's a good one, but it won't help our credibility if people are pointed here saying "look, IMFDB says it's real" and it turns out not to be.
