This week we had the luxury of talking about some old videos games we enjoy, seems like this is the case every week. This week though I stopped by my local Gamestop and picked up a copy of one of my favorite video games of all time, Modern Warfare 2. The game was originally released in November 2009, hard to believe that game is nearly 4 years old. As I placed a copy on the counter, the man behind it said to me, “Wow you’re the 2nd person to buy that game today.” Just goes to show this game has some staying power despite nearly 4 different versions of Call of Duty since its release.
