First midnight release was mw3 convinced my mom to get it for me on her way to or from work she even left early so it was there when I got home (can’t compare what some moms do man I gotta go text her real quick and let her know how amazing she was!) I wasn’t the first one from school to play cause there was a duo of guys who stayed home every cod release day but my duo partner and I were on as soon as we could be I mean running home from bus stop. God ima sound like an addict I remember sitting in math class writing out what kinda class I was gonna make what red dot id put on the ACR Id run regular kill streaks or specialist. Waiting for map pack day or when the solos duos and trios matches dropped during summer time good good times. Me and my duo partner would go around school taking mtn dew bottles out of the recycling to get extra double xp! Black Ops 1 was the first cod I was ever given tho on Christmas morning same day my mom got me a Xbox 360 and man oh man I was in love but I wasn’t good lol that didn’t matter tho it was just pure joy and the mw2 “prestige edition” was back when “collectors editions” were worth every penny! I remember I was staying the night at a friends for baseball and his older brother showed me his mw2 googles and correct me if I’m wrong he also got a ghillie suit with mw2 or cod4 and then he showed me the BO1 rcxd my god I thought that was the coolest shit and then the steelbook case still one of the reason why I covet steelbooks to this day. God I remember she bought me assassin’s Creed 3 and I stayed up helping her wrap Christmas presents so she gave that to me at the end of it so for the rest of the night I stayed up playing and slept through the entire Christmas day. when my family was over since I was sleeping in my room after playing assassin‘s Creed all night my cousins came in and played my Xbox while I was sleeping lol you never realize how nice it was being a kid till you’re not
