The fact that "Call of Duty" branding was conspicuously absent from Modern Warfare 2's debut trailer and all subsequent promotional materials about the game seemed to declare clearly enough that the title had left the franchise's well-fortified nest. A fact that Activision seemed to acknowledge by telling us it "has taken on such a life of its own." So, imagine our surprise when the game's box art materializes ... with "Call of Duty" in the title.

6:00 AM – Slice and dice, bub.
They start out with a pretty decent title, one of those cases where the game is better than the movie. X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

10:00 AM – If only Jack Ryan had his wings.
Out of all the clues, this is the only one that has me slightly confused. So I checked where all bargain gamers like myself would go, Cheap Ass Gamer. Most users are saying it is Tom Clancy's HAWX, so I'm going to agree for now.

Another guess is Bioshock (based on "Jack Ryan" being in the hint).

12:00 PM – Nothing Else Matters
C'mon Amazon, make it a little harder next time. Guitar Hero: Metallica.

3:00 PM – Prepare for the future.
This one I wasn't so sure on, but then vazel from GAF remembered that this was the tag line for Fallout 3.

A slight possibility though, is Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. Seeing how you can already get this for thirty bucks new, I am still putting my money on it being Fallout 3 (especially with the "Game of the Year" edition, they probably want to get rid of this stock)

6:00 PM – Step into the ring with the Eighth Wonder of the World
Sorry to crush your hopes if you might have thought this is for Fight Night: Round 4, but my man Andre the Giant was once known as the Eighth Wonder (and also loved when he was known as Fezzik)

So, you mean to tell us that CoD4 took that honor without even including the PlayStation Network community? Dayum! Pic of that certificate after the break. Congrats, IW!
