I could have been shooting everyone who stopped for a look :lol:

A pain if you're still playing that game, that map's quite good.

Hahahaha. When the fudge was it spotted?

I haven't played this game in almost two years (whenever BLOPS came out). The game's been hacked according to fellow gamers. What isn't surprising but should be is the same texture is used in MW3, which suggests laziness.

I reckon the only reason this has come about is because no one plays MW2 anymore so it looks like a "positive" action for Activision.

Amusing quote from the comments section:

well, i'm not offended. Why not just produce a patch that enables players the choice to remove the so called offending images? I'm all for cultural diversity but it shouldn't come at the expense of bathroom decor.

I would have thought they would keep this in to help retain some of the apparent "shock value" they sought after so much. But I guess there's no money left in MW2 now its been out for so long.
