I know right.... But if it is, I will have to praise Treyarch. If not, well no surprise there nor any respect lost . Anything has to be better than the modding and infections going on in MW2 (Even though I do like the game a lot).
However Treyarch could be using the Nov. 4 update as there basis for this claim, as a friend of mine who does mod [don't worry hes not XG nor do I participate in his acts] says the update is basically another mass ban-hammer that will render all J-tagged Xbox's useless...
Anyway I'm going off topic. I recommend Metro 2033, its not multiplayer but it a pretty unique game. That's if you like post-apocalyptic thriller sort of things. Playing it a night was quite ... interesting.
