Editor's note: Bitmob gathers on Xbox Live to blast each other in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 tomorrow at 5:30 p.m. PT (8:30 p.m. ET). If you participate, write a recap! -Jason

Many of you are no doubt enmeshed in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer mode. But are you good enough to take on the Bitmob crew?

We'll find out Friday night, as Bitmob Game Night plans to feature Modern Warfare 2. Although it's time for us to play a PC game in our rotation of Xbox 360, PS3, and PC, we decided that since so many of you are jazzed about the game (and the same applies to Bitmob editors), it would be a good idea to return to the XB360 a little early.

Bitmob Game Night begins at 5:30 p.m. PT (8:30 p.m. ET) on Friday, November 20. Bitmob cofounder and editor Dan "Shoe" Hsu is set to host the game, and editor Brett Bates plans on hosting any overflow.

If you haven't already, add your online gaming ID here. Look for updates later this week.

I think pretty much anyone is good enough to take on the Bitmob crew! At least the editors...

Oops sorry. hah now I know.

Why are you skipping out PC? I have MW2 on pc and would love to play. When will you be returning to PC and what game will it be

Rondrae Reid , November 16, 2009

I'm half tempted to host a COD4 PC, rebel-boycott Bitmob Game Night, but I'm too lazy to find or setup a server for that. I will lazyweb it and say that if someone does decide to, I'll be ready and willing to join up.

Bring it ooooowwwwwwnn!

Jon Shults , November 16, 2009

Oh god I want to play.Unfortunately time differences mean I won't be able to.I'll try my best to be on but I think it'll be around 1 a.m. here

@Rondrae We're skipping it on PC because more staffers have it on console, and we believe that the community would love to play it together now. I'm hoping for Borderlands for PC for the next Game Night.

Jason Wilson , November 16, 2009

Ooooooo, I hope I can play! Just finished the campaign last night, only three stages left in Spec Ops to do. Hopefully I can start practicing in multiplayer by tomorrow or Wednesday. Would this be terribly difficult to pick up if I haven't played CoD4 online in over 18 months? I hope not.

Tom Heistuman , November 16, 2009

Hopefully I can get in, I'm loving this game something fierce.

Ian Lucier , November 16, 2009

I shall try my best to be on!

Mark T. Whitney , November 16, 2009

Im in again...well CJ and I.

Joshua McCluskey , November 16, 2009

Oh man. I love Bitmob game night.... but sadly I won't be able to join you guys this week. Until next time dudes!

Evan Campbell , November 16, 2009

Gah...the one game I haven't bought this year. I will anxiously await the pictures, though.

Evan Killham , November 16, 2009

I hope I can get on board with this. I'm not 100% sure that I can participate, but I shall try. I'll add my GT to the link provided.

John Michael , November 17, 2009

Man, the one game night I can finally participate in and I'm going to be out of town. Don't forget you can do Ground War with 9 people on each side, so 18 total. You guys stay classy, ya here?

Joshua Henderson , November 17, 2009

Death to Everyone!!!!!

Lance Darnell , November 17, 2009

Damn! I own it on PC and PS3 so I guess I won't be able to join.

Michael Bradley , November 17, 2009

@Michael We'll play it on those systems at some point!

Jason Wilson , November 17, 2009

Looking forward to it! I'm gonna have to purge my friends list from our Halo 3 game night, so I can add new people for MW2...

Dan Hsu , November 17, 2009

Just bought the game today, so I'm totally in.

Travis McReynolds , November 19, 2009

Oh, and Shoe, XBL wouldn't let me add you as you have too many friends. I'm a little late to get in with the cool kids.

Travis McReynolds , November 19, 2009

I'll try to jump on this one. It'll be 8:30 my time. I'll just give the girlfriend some "legal" sleeping pills...

See you then hopefully (I don't know her tolerence so give me a 30 minute window).

Woop Woop!

I'm curious about something. I added my GT to that list but not sure how this will be organized. Could we be getting friend invites or just game invites? If it's after 530 and I still have no invite to anything should I consider that a sign to pack it in and not expect to play that night?

Tom Heistuman , November 19, 2009

I'd love to play a few rounds, but is there a certain level we should be at in order to play? Just wondering since some game modes are locked.

Matt Giguere , November 20, 2009

@Tom and everyone: Easiest way to get in on the action is to send a friend request to me (b bretterson) or Shoe (bitmob shoe). That way we can easily invite you to the party when it's set up.

Brett Bates , November 20, 2009

I have to dump my current friends list tonight to make room. Find me at "Bitmob Shoe" on XBL.

Dan Hsu , November 20, 2009

@Shoe I used the xbox live website to send you a friend request, about to do the same for Brett. No idea if it worked though. The link just said "Send friend request" and the page I got after didn't really say "request sent". I don't wanna miss out! How long will this be going for?
