Modern Warfare 2 is packed with dozens of mysteries and hidden treasures. Luckily for you and me, the folks at Defend the House are shedding light on some of Infinity Ward's best-kept secrets.
Modern Warfare 2 Mythbusters is an ongoing series. This week's edition, part two, busts and confirms several pervasive myths in the MW2 community. For instance, did you know that you run faster when holding a care package signal? Were you aware that the mattresses on Afghan can protect you from falling damage?
If you're new to the series, check out the first video from the DTH clan after the jump!
That care package signal deal is such a pain in multi...I'm sure it will be taken out soon.

These clips combine two of my current favorite things: MW2 and Mythbusters. It's like they were made for me! Great finds, Omar.

I need to make me some body armor out of banana leaves.
Also, is that music in the first video a rock version of a wedding song??

Those were quite enjoyable to watch, and I learned a lot! The guy getting blown up after jumping on the car made me giggle.

Ah, but does it bust the myth that Modern Warfare 2 is the "greatest" game of the year! (*RPG nerd ducks as the shooter kids start pelting him with rotten vegetables.*)

I'll stand with you, Jason. We can take those spoony bards.

These are great! I find FPS humour perversely amusing. I particularly loved the jumping onto the car.
Also, Mr. Hsu, it's Pachelbel's Canon, not "a wedding song". Philistine.

@Mark Dragon Age!!!
There are a series of mythbusting videos on youtube for Halo 3 that were very cool. Same guys?

@Mark My favorite game of the year is Demon's Souls. I think it's the best game that I've played in years.

Awesome production values on these vids, really well made machinima. I found the exploding hydrant in Episode 1 to be particularly silly.

Don't really see how the care package thing was contestable. Just go into any multiplayer game and you'll see it. Not hard to notice that they move unreasonably fast.
