Modern Warfare 2 now on Twitter !

November 26th, 2009

Modern Warfare 2 Twitter is one of the highest volume search terms on Google at the moment and it is easy to see why. With Robert Bowling the community manager having over 90,000 followers on Twitter, infinity ward with over 30,000 followers and the trending topic #MW2 having a minimum of 30 posts an hour there is excitement and a real sense of community on the newest large scale social networking site.

Infinity ward has been very clever in using Twitter which is one of the fastest growing websites in the world, they have managed to have a fully interactive community without putting in much effort at all. the community manager is constantly discussing all aspects of the new game with fans which is aiding Infinity Ward to make a game that the fans really want to see? concave or convex controllers? which are best? he can get immediate feedback from gamers across a number of questions.

The game developer also uses it to keep gamers up to date with the latest happenings in the run up to the games release on November eleventh. the prestige edition will include night vision goggles, a copy of the hardened edition and some exclusive screen shots of the game. There have been over 2 million views of the un-boxing of the prestige edition on You Tube, no doubt a cause of the prestige Ed. selling out so quickly. The hype generated by twitter on the prestige edition has meant it has sold out in the UK on the HMV website (the only place it was available to pre-order).

Infinity Ward will use the ever growing social networking site for a variety of reasons, they will include getting feedback on trailers, game modification discussions and to generate new ideas for multiplayer discussions. I think we could see a massive increase of the search term Modern Warfare 2 Twitter in the coming months as the release date for the game approaches.
