Real Life Modern Warfare 2: Gamer vs. Soldier
Gamer takes on an SAS sniper in a race in Modern Warfare 2's The Pit.
The Gadget Show on UK TV station Five has done something very cool. Anyone who has played Modern Warfare 2 should be familiar with 'The Pit' training level that starts players off with a grading of their skill.
Now that very same Pit level with its two-dimensional targets has been re-created in real life.
One of the Gadget Show's hosts, Jason Bradbury, wrote on his blog, "It took over a week to build, to the level’s exact specifications. Better still, with me on my Xbox 360 version of the game, I challenged an actual Special Forces Soldier to a race from the start of the level to the end, taking down targets (and avoiding civies!)"
Check out the video clip of the gamer vs. soldier showdown.

This video can be viewed here in the UK.
lol let's see the geek try his hand at the real thing..
but wow what an awesome idea/concept...
btw @Wonspur.. Halo blows compared to MW2.. don't even compare.
Video not working in uk, fail...
I bet that soldier cringed a little - I was cringing.
I'm in UK and the video still fails..
ok but both the multiplayers blow complete ass. MW2 is the worst cod to date. dont even run sales numbers on me, thats advertising doing its job to trick idiots into buying crap they wont enjoy.
this is bull, if "Jason" had trained using MW2 and then beat a real SAS soldier with BOTH of them using a real MP5, then this would be valid as a "news" story
a game environment is supposed to be "fun" and therefore doesn't have a lot of the drawbacks of the real world, all this shows is that MW2 isn't realistic
