The five winners of the Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 contest photo

All of last week, you had a chance to win some awesome Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 prizes. All you needed to do to enter the contest was leave a comment with your own custom perk that you would like to see appear in a Call of Duty game. We received over 1600 comments, narrowed down the list of potential winners to 25 submissions and then the team voted on our favorite ones.

First place prize of the Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition Console with a copy of Modern Warfare 2 goes to mosquitopoison! Second and third place prize of Modern Warfare 2 for the Xbox 360 goes to Greg Pappas and Drowning Rabbit. Fourth and fifth place prize of the $50 GameStop gift card goes to Mr Squish and gummygod.

Congratulations everyone! You can check out their winning submissions after the break. Be sure to check out our A Boy and His Blob contest that’s going on today for more chances at winning free stuff!

mosquitopoison -- Perk: Booby trap my dead body so it explodes when someone "Tea bags" it.

Greg Pappas -- Jurassic Perk: Allows you to replace all kill-streak rewards with a swarm of Velociraptors after a 17 kill-streak. You know it would be the scariest thing to hear that scream and see a pack of Velociraptors come out of nowhere as they bite the faces off of your competition. I'm debating whether or not they should have freakin' laser beams attached to their freakin' heads.

Drowning Rabbit -- The Red Scare perk: Your radar now shows everyone in the game, however everyone is a red dot on the map. Be wary of everyone.

Mr Squish -- Run for it Marty! perk: If a teamate is killed by Libyan Terrorists in a VW Van, you get to go back in time and prevent your opponents parents from falling in love at the Enchantment under the sea dance, thus preventing your opponents birth and automatically win the round.

gummygod -- swap-a-roo perk: When you are killed by somebody, with this perk (and others) equipped, all of your perks (including this one) get swapped with all of their perks. thus making nobodys perks safe should they kill the person who currently has this one equipped; kinda goes around the map like a bad flu.

Even with my disappointment at losing, those perks are hilarious. Congrats, all.

:( O well. I guess I'll have to get a 360 the normal way, by buying one(most likely this summer). I bet I was disqualified for the 2nd comment (I didn't realize one comment only until too late).

I like how it was mentioned they could be serious or silly. But all the ones that won are silly. LOL. Quality.

I'm pretty sure there's already a perk in the game similar to the one Gummygod submitted. It's called Copycat.

Yay, Thanks Hamza!

Also, mine wasn't overly funny, it was amusing, but could be used in the game. I dunno.

You realize that the first "winner" on your list is almost directly plagiarized from, of all places, a shitty CAD comic strip right? Not that they aren't all shitty, I might add.

You guys can really pick 'em...

The only winner I like is Drowning Rabbit's Red Scare Perk, even if it's basicially not a perk. But speaking of that, the contest was to make perks, although it was funny, he shouldn't qualify. As for the others they are funny, but after reading them, I feel as if mine wasn't even read...

I'm quite irritated. My perk was the exact same as the winner, except I actually used some decent writing in describing it.

Sigh, oh well. He probably got it in before me; I didn't feel like looking back through the hundred + comments that were before me, ha.

A lot of people (including some of the winners confused "perks" with "kill streak" rewards. Some of the winners were good, some not so much. Oh well.

did they disqualified whoever put more than one perk or just the first entry counted? the comments were so fun that I couldnt resist to put some crazy perks there, pure gold. I thought it was the first entry that mattered.. well, whatever, bad loser complex! gratz to the winners!

Since that first guy needs to be disqualified for both copying a perk from the first game (martyrdom) and combining it with plagiarism from the worst webcomic known to man (if it was a CAD joke, it is, by definition, not funny) how about this perk instead:
Blinded by ignorance: As long as someone has this perk on, every asshat who bought the prestige edition has to play with the words "YOU PAID FORTY DOLLARS FOR A CHILDREN'S TOY" spanning their entire screen in bold, blinking, rainbow letters.

Can you list the other top 25 people / perks? I want to see if my history based one even got close, and to see the other submission ideas.

@Devin

obviously they need to look into a sore loser perk, where the game just flat out tells you to your face what a speial little flower you are, pats you on the head and then you lose a perk for being a bitch.

Hmm. Something punative against the most common gamer taunt. Wow I don't think it's that original to think of that idea so it would be a pretty common thread for most gamers to think up something like this.

@Greg Pappas, "Clever Girl" to you! In fact that should be the name of the perk. Dang it!
