The above video clip is some live game play from the upcoming game Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. I follow Robert Bowling over on twitter where he wrote… “Theres something awesome about playing in front of a massive crowd that cheers everytime you get a sweet kill” along with a link to the above video clip. That’s just another reason why I follow some of the leading video game companies as shown on one of my recent post.

I bet all the World of Warcraft junkies are eating this up… hehehe… Anyways here is a bit about the “TweetCraft” – it’s an in-game Twitter client for World of Warcraft and a Microsoft Coding4Fun Project. With it, you can send/receive Tweets, upload screenshots, and even AutoTweet in-game achievements! Check out the TweetCraft site for more information.
