Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has gotten a new patch that fixes a variety of bugs in the game. Call of Duty is one of the most well-oiled machines in gaming. People have been playing it for 20 years and Activision has ensured there is a new one to play every single fall, without fail. The quality of some of those entries have varied over the years, but there is always Call of Duty and it is almost always the best selling game of the year.
