The Call of Duty franchise doesn’t skimp on patriotism. Of course, “patriotism” in this sense entails gamers enacting their civil responsibility of blowing each other’s heads off in the first-person shooter multiplayer arenas of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Black Ops.

That certainly beats eating hot dogs smelling like lighter fluid all day.
Here’s a more specific list on the content packs going up for half the cheese:
- Modern Warfare 3 Content Collection #1
- Modern Warfare 3 Content Collection #2
- Black Ops First Strike
- Black Ops Escalation
- Black Ops Annihilation
- Black Ops Rezurrection
