In addition to the release of Modern Warfare 2, PS3 users (we’re waiting to hear on the 360 front) can look forward to Call of Duty: Classic, a re-release of the original Call of Duty which will be available on the store in about an hour.

The release of Call of Duty: Classic comes with improved graphics and online 8 player multiplayer (Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Retrieval, Headquarters, Search & Destroy and Behind Enemy Lines).

Check the video to see the original game in action.

Cheers, Mike. Enjoy.

  1. Is this the something special, or is the ’special’ the price


    • This is the ’something special’. Dunno about the price.


    • I’ve read it’s going to be €14,99


  2. Wonderful. Those of us who ordered the special editions were told it’d be exclusive to us at 1st. Nice going Activision….


    • Good point


    • Anyway for Activi$ion to get the money in really. I get the feeling that they only care about their pockets and not keeping their customers happy.


    • but i assume you would get it free with the code from the special edition.
      everybody else will have to pay for it i expect, can’t see activision giving it away.


      • Well no, we still pay for it because it costs more. Part of the deal was that the original CoD would be exclusive to us for a while before the rest of PSN/XBL got it.


      • when you put it that way, i guess you have paid for it.
        guess activision wanted to sell it on it’s own as well.


      • Only exclusive in US (I think). At least, it’s not on there store right now. Activision definitely misled people with the ‘exclusive access’ deal though.


  3. Original AND best IMO…


  4. Oooo Carentan!


  5. Thats our surprise then?
    Good, I suppose… but too many people will be playing MW2 to buy it!


  6. I got the code with the Prestige Edition, I might try it at some point, have they updated the graphics at all?


    • “The release of Call of Duty: Classic comes with improved graphics and online 8 player multiplayer (Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Retrieval, Headquarters, Search & Destroy and Behind Enemy Lines).”

      I assume so ;)


      • Missed that sentence. Hopefully it’s got the GoW treatment then. 720p maybe?!


  7. Part of me thinks I’ll get better value for money off a PSN title than MW2, but if it’s ging to be around £15 I won’t bother!


    • 12 quid


  8. They should have released a trophy patch for MW1, that would have made me buy it for ps3, just to fresh up the story.


    • +1 I haven’t played MW1 for ages. A trophy patch would have given me the incentive to play it through again!!


    • +1 here too. I’m sure we’re not the only ones though.


  9. Oh my what a shock, I bet no one saw this coming on this special update of the store. ;)


  10. if this is imminent why has there been no mention on the blog?
    mike is usually pretty good at posting store news.
    maybe he’s still suffering from that “man flu” thing.


  11. haha! The annotations on that video!
    I can see where people fell in love with the series.


  12. Call of Duty Classic Coming In One Hour

    got that 1 wrong again


  13. I hope it does come out today as I’d actually rather play through that than MW2.


  14. So what is the story with this mornings downtime if this hasn’t come out yet? Or has this come out but only if you redeem a code and it does not show on the front end.


  15. I’ll be giving this a pass, as hopefully I’ll be too busy playing MW2 tonight, as long as Sainsbury’s don’t sell out!! ;)
