GameSlice has an explanation for the apparent Modern Warfare 3 countdown that turned out to be a hoax. Geoff Keighley explains what the countdown is actually for: "Instead, I can exclusively report that Findmakarov.com is the creation of We Can Pretend, an independent Toronto, Canada-based creative collective that is expected to launch a project inspired by Call of Duty on March 2. Production sources who worked on the self-funded project call it visually spectacular." Thanks Joystiq.
