Patch 1.06 was released early this morning to fix the Javelin Exploit in Modern Warfare 2′s multiplayer mode. For those of you who don’t know, this exploit allowed users to detonate their Javelin missile upon death creating a very large blast radius which would take out any nearby players.

News broke over the holiday weekend that Modern Warfare 2 DLC will be coming this spring. This is incredibly vague but at least we know Infinity Ward is making an effort to keep us playing the best game ever made. Chances are this DLC won’t be free and what is actually included is up in [...]
