This weekend might be a good time to lay low and spend some time playing Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare as players will earn twice the experience and can download the Game of the Year variety map pack for 400 points instead of the standard 600. The event, which is XBOX 360 only, will start on 9/12 at 12:01 am PST and run to midnight on the 14th. PS3 owners will probably get their chance to score the extras a week or two later. So go ahead, call your Grandma and tell her you can’t make it to her birthday party, ’cause *cough cough* your a bit *cough* under the weather. *coouugghhh* She’ll understand.

If you’re an Iraq war vet who was injured in a bombing, and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, maybe you should put playing Call of Duty 4 on hold. Eric Hall from Florida did not, and is now missing. More accurately, he’s hiding. He took off after playing the game and now nobody can find him, and his family thinks the game might have triggered it.

To the left is an image of the missing Marine. If any of our Florida readers see him, please let his family know. We’re hoping this ends well.
