Modern Warfare 2 Opening Kills Civilians, Could Eat Your Children

A video showing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s opening scene has been leaked online, and continues to be available despite Activision’s efforts to take it down. If you’re deathly afraid of spoilers, don’t click the link above, navigate to the video that says “modern warfare 2 leaked gameplay w/ sound” and click play. Otherwise, we’re sorry to have spilled the beans on civilians getting shot, but Activision apparently plans to spoil the surprise anyway by warning players of the scene’s graphic nature and allowing them to skip it. The publisher told VG247 that the scenes are meant to convey the ruthlessness of a rogue Russian villain, but that the skip prompt can’t be disabled. At last, a video game that has the purity of your thoughts in mind. [via GameDat and VG247]
