Report: French delivery truck hijacked, 6,000 copies of Modern Warfare 3 stolen

4.7
A delivery truck in Créteil, France carrying 6,000 copies of Modern Warfare 3 was hijacked and stolen on Saturday by two masked people, French news outlets TFI and Ultimate PS3 reported. The truck crashed with a car, and when the truck's drivers exited, two people in masks tear-gassed them before taking off with the games, TFI said. The shipment was reported to be worth 400,000 euros ($551,000).

If you're in the Créteil area and happen to see two people in a delivery truck grinning like maniacs and most likely high-fiving a lot, you may want to contact the authorities. And everyone -- let's settle down. Modern Warfare 3 comes out on Tuesday. It's not worth jail time to play this one a few hours early.

Nice trying to start a flame war when you in fact never owned or got enough play time with any BF game you can't even compare the 2 just GTFO.

I agree, greg needs to calm his shit. This has nothing to do between the games, at the most it just show how stupid the community of CoD are in comparison to BF3
