Call of Duty and Gaming Links, New Year's Day 2010

Mrs. Claus likes my magnum!

     Happy New Year! No CoD for us on New Year's Eve. We streamed movies till we fell asleep. I slept right through New Year's. I was looking at the numbers I scribbled down for the last Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer, and it reinforces my belief that ReiboChief is a beast at MW2. His kills are almost always more than Matt64's and mine -- combined. In some cases, Reibo racks up twice as many or more kills. Wow.
