Call of Duty 3, for the PlayStation 3, will indeed be multi-player networked from day one. Of course, the Xbox 360 release will also support full multi-player but that console has been out for a year (and CoD2 had multiplayer).
Treyarch, the group developing Call of Duty 3, says "yes" to multi-player on all platforms CoD3 will be released on. Good news for Sony because it proves that not all developers are "rushed" to get a product out the door without multiplayer.
Now you must be asking yourself "Call of Duty 2 had basic level functionality for networking at product launch, will part-3 be the same?" - No, that's the word on the street. The next release of this WWII FPS simulator will support, out of the box, 24-player online gaming across many game modes which includes the classic deathmatch and capture the flag.
No worries gamers, this product should launch without a massive network patch.
