Modern Warfare 3 shoots onto Steam for free
Weekend of weaponry anyone?
Agentless Backup is Not a Myth
Activision is offering Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 completely free on Steam this weekend, with access to the full range of multiplayer features on show.
While the game hardly struggles for numbers, with over 6.5m MW3 copies shifted in the first 24 hours on sale, the move will allow unconvinced gamers a chance to load their weapons and join in with the addictive multiplayer carnage.

Free weekend in Paris?
Of course, Activision hopes you'll become hooked and reach into your pocket when free access expires on Monday.
Either way, if you're a PC user, you have a few days of free battle ahead should you wish to jump on board. Jump on Steam, download and fire away.

I'm obviously getting out of touch with current games
I still think Mech Warrior when I see MW.
Hm, generic shooting game
I'll pass. By the time it downloads anyway, the offer will be over.
Only multiplayer?
Why the hell would I download a mid-range FPS just for multiplayer and then pay to play it?
Crikey, give me back the days we'd buy a game, play the single-player campaign through...then once satisfied with our experience we'd all join up together and play games with our friends, with one of us hosting, because we liked the game so much.
Pay to play an FPS? Puleese...
