“Ready for new game modes for Modern Warfare 3?” Infinity Ward’s Robert Bowling asked on Twitter today.

“I’ve got some surprises for you for the weekend. I’ll confirm full details tomorrow!”

Now you know as much as we do. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is out now on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360; made $1 billion in 16 days; and hands out 5,000 day bans for being a dirty cheat.

MP1st received reports and a screenshot showing one Xbox Live member’s 5,000 day ban from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 – that’s almost 14 years. Infinity Ward’s Robert Bowling confirmed the number isn’t an error. “If you see this message, it means you’ve been Permabanned (for something bad),” he explained.

Thanks, Kotaku.

Infinity Ward has started laying the ban hammer down on those who “cheat, hack, or glitch” in Modern Warfare 3, with over 1,600 already banned from the game’s multiplayer. According to a tweet from Robert Bowling, attempts to cheat “will not be tolerated” and he asked that folks continue to report offenders until a patch, currently in the works, is released. Bans from the leaderboards and playing were issued on launch day as well, with Bowling stating that anyone “attempting to play unfairly or boost rank” would be culled. Thanks, VentureBeat.
