It's fair to say that the core PC gamer has a huge emotional investment in the Call of Duty and Modern Warfare series. The franchise (as it has now become) originated on computer and, at its core, it's still running id Software code that dates all the way back to the Quake 2 era. Indeed, even Modern Warfare 2's first splash screen acknowledges the contribution Carmack's antique code makes to the current game, just like its predecessors before it.

Oh, drumbeater. I was on board. I could not wait to rope the animals. I have never visited Ocean City, New Jersey, but I would have if I'd known there's a Jambo! Safari arcade cabinet there. I even started a petition to bring the series back and when SEGA announced a console game was in development I, like you, rejoiced.

BioWare didn't just launch a single game when it released its RPG epic Dragon Age: Origins last week.
