Activision updates Modern Warfare 2 logo photo

Whoa -- stop the presses. (I always wanted to write that.) Activision changed Modern Warfare 2’s logo. The image above is what Activision’s, er, slightly different version of the highly anticipated game’s logo. You can see the old busted up joint in the gallery.

So what’s different? There isn’t so much blur in the new logo.

I know what you’re thinking. But that’s so stupid, Brad. Well, it’s not. Before Activision stepped in with this brilliant makeover, I wasn’t able to read the old logo. I totally thought it was a teaser image for Splinter Cell: Conviction. Now I can clearly make out the words “Modern Warfart.” I still don’t know what that yellow thing is in the background, but I’m betting that Activision will tell us more in the near future. Hopefully.

Still bothers me that it doesn't include "Call of Duty" next to it. What, are they rebelling after World at War's success?

They really need to change that 2. it looks like ass.
It looks like a 4 year old carved it into a blackboard using a sharpened crayon.

Seriously, if that 2 is on the final box I'm gonna cover it in catnip and let my cat go to town.

Clearly we needed the fuzzy blur in order to emphasize the "modern" part of Call of Duty 6 because with all the high techn goodness the game is about, like satellite videos, listening devices and so forth. But is it iconic enough that removing the fuzzy blur is a bad thing?

@drgonzo666: I'm the only one moaning about it... and I'm a graphic designer, I HAVE THE RIGHT! =3

It is a bit bland looking.
Is this still part of the Call of Duty series or are the completly ditching the CoD branding now?

@Flabzilla: I think they're ditching the Call Of Duty name.

"Stop the presses". Funny, in a few years time that's going to be an archaic term

I don't give a fuck about the logo, I just want the game.

I'm guessing that they are completely getting rid of the Call of Duty name. I bet that Treyarch will continue making games with Call of Duty in the title that have to do with WWII (even though I have no idea what is left, except a Battle of the Bulge, which would be awesome!), and Infinity Ward will just call their games Modern Warfare from now on. I don't really care. As long as I see that Infinity Ward logo on the box art, I'm happy.

"Modern Warfart"

Lame Joke or stupid typo taking all bets.

I could give less of a fuck what the name is or what the logo looks like.

The important thing is that Infinity ward, one of the BEST FPS developers around, are making this version of COD. Every single COD game they made so far has been simply amazing. Especially 4.

It will be a long wait till the game is released this year.

Thank the stars that infinity ward is able to keep making modern warfare.
WWII is so played out, I can't stand any of it anymore.

@fadecy, I'm a graphic designer too, and I think the logo is fine, not great though.
