Just so you know, CoD3 will not be released for PC.  It is for Console only.
And it is not being developed by IW, but by Trayarch (aka Graymatter).  I
believe this is the end of the CoD series for IW.

I don't know about other places, but here in the US, if the game is flawed,
you can return it for a full refund.  If they refuse the refund, then you
have a case.  But it appears that ATVI will refund the money.
