Activision — or someone with some pull — has sneakily changed the name of the Wii version of developer Infinity Ward’sCall of Duty 4: Modern WarfarefromCall of Duty: Modern WarfaretoCall of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex. The new name is a mouthful and a mystery. We haven’t the slightest idea why it was changed.
Earlier this morning,CVGspotted the name changein a press releaseannouncing the plethora of videogames coming to the Wii this holiday season. Dated the 15th, the press release didn’t reveal anything we shouldn’t already know: Activision sent us images of the box art a few weeks prior to today with the new branding. We just plain didn’t catch the change.
GameStop.com has changed the name of the on its Web site, and a PR representative was kind enough to give us quadruple confirmation this afternoon when we asked ifCall of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflexwas the new name. The representative didn’t comment, however, on why it changed.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflexis still hitting on November 10th.
