What’s this? After all that lip-flapping about Modern Warfare 2 losing the Call of Duty name, they have decided to add it back in after all.
This information made it’s way to our eyes when we were pointed in the direction of a Twitter post by an Infinity Ward employee, who had just got his hands on the game boxes fresh off the press and posted a photo of them on Twitter.
It didn’t take me very long to realise that just above the Modern Warfare 2 text, and much smaller than it usually would be, was the Call of Duty logo.
Check out the photo of the boxes, after the jump.

I have my doubts of the authenticity of this, I reserve judgement

fourzerotwo is a known ‘insider’, if he posted it then the boxart is legit 😉
Or he got fired 😛

fair enough my concern is that it’s July… that’s 3 months (exactly) till release, seems a little soon that’s all.

It might say COD on the box, but apparently that doesn’t mean that the official name is changing:

I think it’s the right move to put it on the box though. I still think of the 1st MW game as COD4.

FourZeroTwo is known to release these kind of things, he’s like the person who tell’s us how everything is going behind the scenes with COD4 or COD:MW2 – He is legit, I have him on Twitter and seen his tweet about this.
