More CoD7 cryptic info; Chobot resupply

Reminder that it's a free weekend of MW2 PC play on Steam. You can download the game and play until 10AM PDT, Monday. If you have an Xbox Silver Membership, it's a free weekend on Xbox Live, also. At the top of the blog today is a real-life, no-foolin' weapon attachment that is absolutely teh awesome: The Kitty Corner attachment. Check out the annoying, self-launching Double Viking vid. Today's featured MW2 vid is a top 5 lucktage. Following that are 2 anti-booster montages by OpTic Nation's OpTic H3CZ.

New weapon attachment: Kitteh Camo [Removed Embedded vid due to annoying commercial]

The video is viewable on Double Viking here.

On to the links:

• The creepy GKNOVA6 site has been updated in its own creepy way. The second button on the TV is now lit, and clicking on it generates a new coded message. The previous message can be heard by clicking the top button, also. Thanks to jockyitch of BASHandSlash for the tipoff!
• BASHandSlash: Followers of the PC gaming site have cracked another code from the mysterious GKNOVA6 site, updated with a cryptic message just last night. The update also includes speculation about more CoD7 clues from the PSM image advertising next month's exclusive CoD7 reveal.
• GoogleNews (AP): The Empire Strikes Back! Activision countersues Zampella and West. (Thanks to Blues News for the link.) It's pretty hilarious for a price-gouging outfit like Activision to call Zampella and West "self-serving schemers".
• GameInformer: And Zampella and West fire back!
• Kotaku: Axed Call Of Duty Creators Return Fire At Activision, Plan To Reveal 'Creative Future' Soon.
• Kotaku: Modern Warfare 3 Being Held Up By Legal Confrontation.
• Examiner: Crysis 2 writer 'immensely disappointed' by Modern Warfare 2. Richard Morgan, author of Altered Carbon and Broken Angels, is a writer on Crysis 2 now, so it makes sense he'd slag off Modern Warfare 2. It's not a big deal: We've all slagged off MW2's single player campaign.
