As Kotaku’s resident FPS freak, I have to check out Modern Warfare III’s multiplayer when it drops this Friday, even if the campaign isn’t all that good. And I’m not checking it out just because I love to play shooters—MWIII is famously recreating every single multiplayer map from 2009’s Modern Warfare 2, so I’m really curious to see how the pacing of modern CoD feels on older maps. I’m really leaning into nostalgia—2009 was my first year of college, and I spent much of it stoned playing Modern Warfare 2. So, I’m going to recreate my college days this weekend and hope I can get some dubs on Rust or Terminal. Oh my god, Terminal. We are so back, guys. — Alyssa Mercante
