With the revelation of a new release schedule from Activision-Blizzard this morning, highlighting the publishers autumn/winter line-up, Electronic Theatre can today confirm that the PC version of the highly-anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has suffered a delay. Originally due for a simultaneous release with the rest of 2009’s Call of Duty onslaught, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will now officially be late to the party.

On November 10th 2009, the latest batch of Call of Duty releases will arrive on each of the leading formats. Nintendo’s Wii will receive its’ first Call of Duty release with the Modern Warfare subtitle, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex, alongside the Nintendo DS’s exclusive Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Mobilised. Of course, November 10th also marks the release of one of the most anticipated games of the year, Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The PC release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, however, [color=red]will now arrive a fortnight later, on [size=24]November 24th [/size]2009.[/color]

No official reason has yet been given for the delay, though Electronic Theatre would suggest that perhaps manufacturing constraints are to blame. Though many may expect the delay to be a measure to counteract piracy issues, as was seen with THQ’s Red Faction: Guerrilla and each of Capcom’s 2009 big three, two weeks surely won’t dull any underhanded intentions, and with worldwide release dates drawing ever closer publishers are under increased pressure to ship sufficient quantities of their titles to meet demand in a timely manner, and as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is likely to perform better at retail on consoles than PC, it’s not surprising Activision-Blizzard has chosen to delay Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on PC rather than any other format. Electronic Theatre will keep you updated with all the latest from Activision-Blizzard and the Call of Duty franchise.

what is your source? I do not see any mention of a delay for the PC on the IW's website nor fourzerotwo's(Robert Bowling, IW's Community Manager for MW2) twitter. On Oct. 17th he actually mentions that there's no delay for the PC version on his twitter. Usually anything that is not confirmed by Robert Bowling is all rumors and hearsay. MW2 for PC has NOT been delayed. Just follow fourtwozero's twitter at http://modernwarfare2.infinityward.com
He's the only accurate source when it comes to MW2.

yea those are all rumors. if you search on google you will get tons of results saying its delayed and its not delayed. but it usually goes down as how fourzerotwo(Robert Bowling) from Infinity Ward says it will on his twitter on the MW2 website. if there's no official word from him then its going to be out on the 1st estimated release date of Nov. 10th. i gotta pre-order soon from newegg. can't wait, only like 2 more weeks left. i hope i can switch my current cod4 server to mw2, dat will be awesome. sux they haven't released a demo/beta yet. guess they are really trying to get ppl madly anticipated about the game.

No you can't switch your server to MW2 because there will be [size=18]NO[/size] dedicated servers.

I dunno, maybe its my age diff compared to most of ya'll, but another WWII saga would be just overkill. WWII shooters been done to death... but hey if it's your cup of tea, frag on. 8)
