It's no secret that Infinity Ward is working on a new game that apparently is being called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Not particularly clever, but it'll get the job done, I suppose.
By "job done" I mean get us all worked up, because Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was the s**t, son. So when Infinity Ward community manager Robert Bowling posts pictures on his Twitter of comedian/actor Dane Cook playing what is apparently Modern Warfare 2, I get a little angry. To get it out of the way: yes, if you squint really hard you can make out Modern Warfare 2. And if you hit a few tabs of acid, it totally looks high definition. Also, you play the game with a controller, confirmed.
Cook later posted some of his own Tweets about the experience, in what appears to be the first Modern Warfare 2 review.
"Sick F'in game," he writes. "Truly the game is killer. Good job, all."
He later confirms that the graphics are "improved," and that it "feels like [Call of Duty 4] but on steroids.
But back on point here -- SERIOUSLY. DANE COOK, INFINITY WARD!?!? WTF!?!? I don't know the guy, so I have no reason to hate or dislike him. But now I do. Dane Cook is now my nemesis, and I will do whatever I can to ruin him. Hey Dane -- your jeans are ripped! Jerk.

Wooohhh! More Modern Warfare! Can't Wait!
But you know, I'm totally going to throw a grenade at his head. In Modern Warfare 2, of course.
BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNN
Good call. He must be playing the 360 version.
BIAS!!
Because not only is he a comedian and making millions of dollars, he's also a fairly attractive guy to boot.
Naturally this raises the ire of all the nerds.
Yep. The sad thing is there are two schools of thought when it comes to original Dane Cook fans.
A) (me) - You see Dane Cook for the first time when you were going into college. He was hilarious at first, and you weren't used to frat boy humor. C'mon the Alien sketch was hilarious the first time! Then you quickly realize that he re-uses his jokes on every thing he's in, and if he runs out, just screams "AHHHHHHH!" or "Broooooo! CooooooomEOOOOOON!"
B) You still like Dane Cook for some god forsaken reason.
FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
If Mitch Hedburg played COD6, that would be news. And it might also have a chance of being funny. Because Dane isn't but Mitch is/was.
I've often wanted to hit this guy with something blunt and heavy...
hate on, Destructoid. Hate on.
Finally someone we all can focus our anger on. =D
