Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is going to be huge. It will probably be the biggest videogame release of 2009 and may even break a few records in the process. Demand for COD: MW2 is through the roof so retailers are thinking of creative ways to get buyers into its stores to pick up the game. The latest contender for your MW2 dollars is Walmart which is giving a $20 eGift Card to anyone who preorders COD: MW2 online. The eGift Card is limited to one per customer and can only be used online.

Walmart isn’t stopping its blitz with the gift card. More than 2,400 24-hour Walmart locations will start selling MW2 at 12:01a.m. on November 10, 2009.

If you are one of the first 20 people to purchase MW2 you’ll receive an copy of the game autographed by the team at Infinity Ward.

Some light math indicates that 48,000 autographed copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be handed out at Walmart. It may seem like a lot but considering the millions of copies this game is expected to sell, autographed covers will be rare.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be available on November 10, 2009 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. It carries a very understandable “Mature” rating from the ESRB.
