    No it is actually a fansite that had loads of bragging about Modern Warfare. Atleast that is what I`ve heard. Probably some nerd freaking out right now :D

    Yeah I think it is a fansite because if you google it up you can see people discussing videos and beta invitations on that site. Youtube have videos pointing to that site as well.

    Surprised it hasn't been taken down now. Call the server provider and provide proof of ownership and pull the plug.

    It wasn't lulzsec. Lulzsec is retired from hacking. If it was lulzsec, they would've attacked the main website, not some fan site.

    It's not the official site, so whatever. Besides it wouldn't be funny even if it were, these hackers are causing a lot of trouble and I don't find it funny at all.

    Didn't lulzsec have a hacking hotline of sorts, somebody could have requested them to do this.

    LOL! xP Hilarious. But I still love MW2. It was the epitome of a perfect game, OK there were some flaws but whatever. MW3 better be a friggin' 60 dollar map pack or else I'm gonna get pissed.

    From the looks of it this site was a legit MW3 fansite. Up until now it contained favoritism for MW3. It has now hacked.
