I've been indulging a quiet Modern Warfare 3 habit recently. The immediacy of the multiplayer and the well paced unlock system make it a good game to dip into for a few quick rounds every now and then and the speed with which the game can fill a server and get everyone fighting is still impressive. It's a fast fix. Like a Big Mac. If you're in the mood for something more filling, there's always Battlefield 3, which is more like tapas, delivering varied doses of specialised satisfaction that combine to form one delicious war-meal. Yum. Now I need to leave before this analogy implodes and kills us all.
