Petition to remaster CoD: Modern Warfare 2 for next-gen hits goal
The petition, which is addressed to Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg and Infinity Ward CEO Jason West, states that "Modern Warfare 2 was one of Activision's best game. Just a fun & enjoyable game that really gives you that nostalgia feeling. The guns, maps, kill streaks were just incredible."
It goes on, however, that "At the moment mw2 for the ps3 & xbox is just overrun by hackers. If they remaster the game, & sort a couple things out (e.g noob tubing) it would make a lot of people happy. [sic]"
Unfortunately, it probably won't happen -- even with the petition hitting its goal. We reached out to Activision for comment on the petition and so far we've heard nothing that gives us any sort of inkling that the publisher would remaster one of their past games. And why would they? With a new Call of Duty releasing every year, why would Activision risk cannibalizing its sales? There's already complaints of gamer fatigue when it comes to the Call of Duty franchise; I can't imagine releasing two in one year would help with that, despite how amazing Modern Warfare 2 was.
At the very least, maybe the petition will elicit some sort of response from Activision, but I wouldn't count on it. A representative didn't sound too optimistic.
Update: After hitting its goal of 150,000 the petition has been changed to a goal of 200,000.

A remastered version will most likely not happen since Activision are very unwilling to remaster it in my opinion.

Halo4XxOGxX Yeah bring back the game with endless noobtubes and quick scopers trying to get big doing stupid trickshits while having a dummy guy. Please don't remake it. I had my share when I got it on release. Just leave the classis as they were. I loved the game but noooo!!!
Yeah that's what I'm thinking. I enjoyed it too but wouldn't really pick it up if they remade it unless it was for a really cheap price. It would be pretty much the same thing as the 360 without the modders.
Yeah I agree what you are both saying but do you think they would make the same mistake twice and I'm sure if people did that it only be a hit marker.
Also I think that if this keeps going the way it's going it isn't going to be long till they see this and they will need to make there decision.

The goal is 200k now. I'm pretty sure no one at activision or any of the CoD devs have acknowledged it as far as I know. Even if they have who is going to develop it? Surely activision isn't going to pull one of the 3 devs from their 3 year development cycle to do it. Not to mention most if not all of the key people from IW who worked on it are at Respawn now so they'd be surely **** it up some how.

ITAMiss Too bad it's a private company, not the government, and all these signatures are meaningless.
It probably got Infinity Ward's attention
200,000 signatures I am pretty sure it did get there attention.
