Yesterday we reported<\/a> that consumer rights group Gamers’ Voice was taking Acitvision to task over the shoddy state of Call of Duty: Black Ops at release.<\/p>\n

The organisation is supposedly submitting complaints to the relevant UK authorities this week, and promises to keep us updated as to the outcome of the procedure.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, developer Treyarch has released yet another patch for the PS3 version of the game. Game design director David Vonderhaar tweeted<\/a> the announcement earlier today.<\/p>\n

The informal announcement read as follows: “Update v1.06 for PlayStation 3 is now live. Official sticky post on #CODBlackOps forums will be updated shortly.”<\/p>\n

“Have a nice day.”<\/p>\n
