Call of Duty Online Remains Free on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Activision have crushed recent rumours suggesting that there would be fees to play Call of Duty: Black Ops online.

The latest addition to multiplatform war shooter will continue to boast a variety of online options, and according to the community manager for Activision, Josh Olin, will remain free.

There had been rumours from analysts suggesting that the series will introduce paid-only extras like tournaments and leaderboards to maximise revenue.

No, you will not have to 'Pay to Play' multiplayer either. Rumor -> Squashed.

For the time being Call of Duty will remain free to pay online. Would you splash a dollop of green for additional features and optional modes?

And so it should. There is no reason to pay for anything, you have bought the game it is their job to maintain the servers.

7 words: Every Pay to Play MMORPG

It requires great courage to look at oneself honestly, and forge one's own path.

Writing is on the wall, games have gotten significantly more expensive to make and we have to foot the bill somehow.
