Last week, the internets were all on the buzz about a mysterious new website – FindMakarov.com – that looked, for all intents and purposes, like some kind of alternate reality game promo for an as-yet unannounced Call of Duty: Modern Warfare title. It has glowy, interlaced neon green text and a countdown and everything. WHAT ELSE COULD IT POSSIBLY BE?
After Activision confirmed that – actually! – they had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with it, and calling it a “hoax”, speculation moved over to EA – was this another “Duty Calls”-type parody, possibly in anticipation of a Battlefield 3 demo at GDC this week?
Nope. According to Geoff Keighley – GTTV games journalist and presenter, WHOIS supersleuth – turns out it’s a teaser for some sort of “project inspired by Call of Duty” by Canadian indie “creative collective”, We Can Pretend. Apparently it’s “visually spectacular”.
So, yeah. Inb4 Activision’s lawyers dispatching the good old “Cease & Desist”. Stay tuned.
