The first time I've thought about Burger King in ages was earlier this week, when I learned that the fast food giant had teamed up with Activision for a Call of Duty promotion that's a real whopper: Buy a burger, get an exclusive operator skin based on fictional fast food chain Burger Town.
To get an idea of just how badly some people want this burger skin, which I must clarify is actually just a normal guy wearing a Burger Town shirt, $40 is about 10 Whoppers worth of dollars, or over half the price of Modern Warfare 2 itself .
It's not clear what sort of dark dealings at Activision prevented the Burger Town promotion from including the US of A, Call of Duty's hometown, but I doubt whatever's meant to replace it can match this absolutely ridiculous ad created for the Burger King event. A lot to unwrap there: the surprisingly faithful recreation of Modern Warfare 2's HUD, the way they crawl through air vents like a secret agent when a true CoD protagonist would simply breach the door, the guy's callsign being"Burger Six," the way Burger Six makes himself an ice cream cone and immediately chucks it on the ground. It's all great, with the only low point being the reveal of a very unappetizing Burger King meal as a grand prize.
Welcome to the #MW2 @BurgerKing in Puerto Rico 😊❤️🎮 Credit: Facebook/Dillysway pic.twitter.com/UjVHKcHz0XI'll shed no tears for missing out on La Casa Del Whopper's food, but I do admit that dumb Burger Town shirt with included white man does call to me. He could and should be considered the new official mascot of CoD.Morgan has been writing for PC Gamer since 2018, first as a freelancer and currently as a staff writer.

is the BK event over, or it hasnt started yet?
That's sad
Is that a DrDisrespect skin? 👀
For a $70 game. Honestly COD people are special, in a bad way
I know these people think they're cool to get the skin, but if I'd see someone wearing a skin that cost $40, all I'd feel is second-hand embarrassment toward them for using their money on something ridiculously stupid like that.
Oooh the snark in this article! Clearly the author is a Maccas boy. 😂
Dr Disrespect at home
bruh wtf is this WHERE’S MY MEAT
ok i'll buy a whooper tonight
Maybe you should talk about those dumb people that order from Bk in France resulting in more than a 50 orders to be wasted because no one come to collect them.
DrDisrespect
If those people didn't exist... the world would have been a slightly better place
Anyone who buy a 40$ skin, actually anyone who buys a skin in a 70$ you are the prb with this mtx industry.
They need to play Overwatch2 if they like tossing money at skins. Blizzard_Ent
So the country, in which Burger town exists, where people inhale burgers with their vapes is not on the list for the Burger King promo code !? LMAO
People are lost beyond help!
Probably because it looks like Dr Disrespect 😭😂😂😂
