GAME to carry Modern Warfare 3 Intel Pack exclusively
GAME has announced it’s to carry an exclusive Modern Warfare 3 Intel Pack, available to customers who pre-order the title for either PS3 or Xbox 360. It contains a British special forces avatar and a Brady strategy guide. Apparently, that’s not all that will be included either, as GAME UK PR boss Neil Ashurst said to expect the next announcement from the retailer regarding MW3 will be “something fans of the series will be eager to get their hands on too.” Holding your cards close to your chest, eh GAME? Well played. Thanks, CVG.
