Just when you think you’ve seen it all, eh? Well, by now we’ve all heard about Infinity Ward, the team currently in charge of the Call Of Duty series, with their more notable title, Modern Warfare 2, on the edge of release. Of course with every major gaming title, it’s suitable for the company to purchase the corresponding domain, right? (Such as ModernWarfare2.com).
However, the ZiiP Gaming Community has decided to shake things up a bit. They have purchased the domain “modernwarfare4.com”, and are offering the domain to Infinity Ward for a small ransom - a copy of Modern Warfare 4 (when released) to each and EVERY member of their community. (Registration is down at the time of posting, yes, I’ve tried) Yes, Modern Warfare 4, if any, is a long way off, but companies have a tendency to purchase domain names long before the actual game is announced.
Here is the message that was posted to Infinity Ward from the ZiiP Community:

If you are reading this, you may well be the web administrator for Infinity Ward.
If you are, there is a chance that you may well require this domain. Don’t worry, you can have it - in exchange for a little ‘good will gesture’ for the little gaming community that owns this domain and has been playing your games for years.
What we’d like is a copy of the game that this domain would be used for, - one copy for each and every member of our gaming community.
