Activision's juggernaut, the next chapter in the Call of Duty series, Modern Warfare 3 is out today for the PC, Xbox360 and PS3. While gameplay pretty much stays the same from previous iterations, the stakes have now been raised significantly, as the game’s protagonists will now have to deal with the looming threat of World War III. If you’ve played previous CoD games, specifically the Modern Warfare series, Modern Warfare 3 will be a familiar territory with non-stop balls-to-the-wall action and cinematic set-pieces.

Houston we have a pretty big problem

After that you can head into the game’s revamped Spec Ops mode, co-operative play where two players tackle a bunch of various stand alone missions. Of course, the meat of the game lies in its multiplayer that should keep us busy for days on end. That is if you aren’t too occupied with Battlefield 3.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
