Modern Warfare 3 Trailer Shows Attack on London Underground
0The first glimpses of one of this years hottest games, Modern Warfare 3, have been seen via the release trailer currently shown on YouTube.
The new trailer depicts playable levels across multiple areas of the globe including the US, France and England.
One scene goes as far as to depict an attack taking place on a London Underground train, resulting in derailment and carnage.
There’s no denying that the graphics are astounding, but it’s pretty obvious that Infinity Ward are continuing to push the envelope when it comes to public decency.
There was a large public outcry when the games predecessor, Modern Warfare 2, called on the player to open fire on innocent civilians in a Russian airport. The displeasure resulted in a patch that gave the player the option to skip this part of the game entirely.
Will Infinity Ward include a similar option in this game? Who knows…
