The above petition has not been "shutdown" by IW. They have stated they will let it go. 72,000 + signatures already. At $60.00 a game they are looking at $4,320,000 in lost revenue. Although this is just the hardcore PC clan type gamers, it is a significant loss of revenue.
Here is the link to Infinity Wards thread on the petition.
