'Modern Warfare 2' Double XP Weekend Coming

Hoping to hit that next level of Prestige in half the time? Infinity Ward has you covered. In celebration of the release of the new "Modern Warfare 2" map pack on March 30th, the developer will be holding a double XP weekend from April 2nd to the 5th. The news came via community manager Robert Bowling's Twitter feed:

Mark the calendars now! April 2nd - 5th marks the first Double XP weekend on #MW2 for #xboxlive worldwide. New Maps + Double XP = No sleep.

Truthfully it's gonna take more than double XP to bring me back to "Modern Warfare 2." "Bad Company 2" has been stealing most of my nights since, unlike Infinity Ward's ultra-popular shooter, I only get killed every 10 seconds in "Battlefield" instead of every 5 in "MW2." My kinda game!
