We're giving away an Xbox 360, Modern Warfare 2 & more! photo

We're a week away from the launch of one of the year's most highly anticipated releases, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. So what better way to celebrate the release of the game than by having a contest?

First up, if you didn't know, GameStop has been giving away daily prizes for Modern Warfare 2 for a little while now. All you have to do is pre-order the game from GameStop and then enter their sweepstakes over on Surprize Attack, where they're holding raffles twice a day. There are a ton of prizes being offered, from CoD dog tags and shirts to CoD-themed Hummer. Yeah, a freaking car! The GameStop contest ends on November 10.

If you already pre-ordered Modern Warfare 2 from somewhere else, though, don't worry: Destructoid's got your back. We're holding a big Modern Warfare 2 contest this week, with these prizes:

All you have to do to enter this contest is to create a perk you would like to see appear in a Call of Duty game. It can be funny, serious -- anything goes. Just make sure you describe your perk in detail when you leave your entry in the comments below. One entry per person only!

Perks, if you don't know, are customizations you can give yourself in multiplayer that give the player an extra advantage, such as increase the damage you give, increase your reload speed, drop grenades when you die and so on.

This contest is open until 11:59 PM EST on November 10, and it's for US residents only. We'll be announcing the five winners on November 11. Now have at it!

[Winners were announced here!]

One nice perk would be the dynamite helmet.

That way if anyone tries to headshot you, nobody better be close by... Might as well take down a bunch of people with you.

Perk - Flower Power - Shoot flowers out of your gun that freeze the other players and make them "dance the happy dance".

That system looks crazy nice... but CoD Hummer? Gross.

Okay, so you know the perk that lets you drop grenades when you die? I'd like a perk that makes it so every time you die, there's a one in a thousand chance that you drop a nuke on the entire map. All the other players then have to pretty much play the famous post-nuke level from MW1. Except maybe instead of dying some of them become mutants and they have to start life anew. And barter.


...I want a Fallout MMO already.

Hmm... I don't know if I'll make something that's close to what exists, since I've never gotten into the CoD series, but here we go:

I AM RUBBER AND YOU ARE GLUE - It's a perk you activate manually, maybe once or twice per game. If you get shot, your attacker(s) takes the damage instead for a limited amount of time. :P

My Perk, Sweet Revenge. It would work like a Kill Streak. Pretty much once you reach a certain streak, like 10 kills or something, the person who kills you is marked on your map until you kill them back. So even if they did die, but not by you, they would still be marked on your map until the deed is done with your own hands... guns?

The Controversy Perk:

The more controversy you can cause in the game, the harder your bullets hits. Controversy includes but not limited to: shooting civilians in the back of the head, shooting in a airport, lighting Washington, DC on fire, cutting the throats of puppies, punching dolphins in the noise, watching 2 girls, 1 cup on your iPhone at Church, etc.

Gone in a Flash:

Whenever a Flashbang you throw goes off, your movement speed is increased by 100% for 5 seconds. This allows you to more quickly enter a room for clearing purposes or utilize the flash to make your escape from a dangerous situation.

I haven't played COD4 so I'm not sure if you can pick up a dead players weapon...but if you could set up some sort of booby trap on the weapons so that when they fire they backfire/damage the player and render the weapon useless...that would be a nice perk. =)

I'm sure the frat-boy Halo players will appreciate this one:

Perk: Balls of Steel- When you get 3 kills in a row in less than 20 second intervals, you gain balls of steel and are unaffected by flashbangs, stuns, shocks, or any other effect that knocks your aim. Effect lasts 20 seconds and is refreshed by making a kill. Also plays the sound clip "I've got balls of steel baby" whenever you make a kill.

I.E.D. Perk

Unfortunately this is a commonly used acronym these days with the war overseas, that stands for Improvised Explosive Device. Its generally disguised by looking like a commonly placed thing or piece of trash along the side of a road that can be remotely activated.

So the perk sounds like a claymore, right? Well it would sorta be like a claymore, except its disguised to look like a normal something on the map and in turn of the disguise, it does less damage than the claymore. but on top of some damage it blows up a lot of dirt around it like a combo claymore/smoke bomb. And possibly be able to be detonated remotely like C4, or just work when near enemy contact.

Real American Hero:

Allows you to spawn as a G.I. Joe character, each with his/her own character specific ability. For instance, if you spawn as Snake Eyes, you get a katana as a melee weapon.

For the record, I'm talking original G.I. Joe skins--not that new movie business...

SAY HELLO TO MR. TICKLES:

If you can manage to kill everyone on the opposing team without getting killed yourself, there is a 1 in 1000 chance of you respawning 100 feet tall, take 85% less damage, but speed is significantly reduced (including aiming speed) and your bullets are to scale with your size (meaning one shot could clear a small corner of the map). Plus you can step on people to kill them if you can manage it. there could also be an Achievement/trophy for taking down 'Mr. Tickles' without getting yourself mauled by a 100 foot soldier. a 'godzilla style' RAWR emote must also be available to players who find themselves 100 feet tall...possibly with eye lasers

Call in a Favor: Linked to your number-10 killstreak, a deployment of one-to-four spec ops soldiers (skin and voice determined by faction, difficulty/damage and number determined by rank) are automatically spawned into the map to help you and provide a temporary distraction to your enemies. Nothing overpowered, nothing to allow too much of an advantage, just something to make the battle more hectic and chaotic. They can only target and fire on one player in a span of 7 seconds, and do not hunt down players like the dogs in WaW. They would have slightly increased damage resistance, can utilize cover and can announce the position of enemy players. After 30-40 seconds, the soldiers would respond to a distress call of their own and retreat from the map. Enemy players would also gain +15 points each for killing the soldiers.
