It seems that patch 1.08 causes lots of problems for the PlayStation 3. Many people can’t play normally online because of freezing problems. Robert Bowling has tweeted that Infinity Ward are working on the issues with Sony, saying, ”However, we are aware of several users reporting freezes once connected to games. We are currently working with SONY to identify the source of this issue.”
