Introducing Call of Duty Elite, an innovative new online service that significantly enhances the Call of Duty franchise’s multiplayer experience delivering a new level of social engagement to players worldwide. Connect. Compete. Improve.
Honestly, I see both positives and negatives with this service. The positives: stat tracking, detailed weapons bios, clan formation, leagues and operations, the program guide, expanded theater, and being able to potentially access it from my iPad and other mobile devices. It all looks pretty sweet. The negative: having to pay for additional services. That ain’t sweet. At least there’s the tiniest peak at MW3 at the end of the video. And hey, they’re offering a chance to get into the closed beta for the service right now, so go and sign up.

So its like a paid version of what Bungie does for the Halo franchise on Bungie.net.
Yes and no.
Yes, in that there’s going to be a paid service attached with Elite where, among other unannounced features, you’ll have instant access to any future DLC (i.e. map packs). I’m guessing at least $10 a month, although it could be higher.
No, in that the baseline version is free (at least that’s what they’re saying).
But, yeah. Basically it’s Bungie.net’s stat tracker made for CoD.
