MW3 Elite - Compete mode

Right, here is another reason to play MW3 over that buggy and glitchy POS that is BF3.

If you join Elite, they have a mode that's called Compete, where challenges and stats are awarded with medals/badges. I like how Gears3 does this too, where you can display your most "impressive" badge next to your name in multiplayer matches. However, MW3 goes WAY beyond just this.

1. there are REAL prizes...like t-shirts, hats, phone cases and even cars!
2. they can be game mode specific, they can be done/achieved as a clan or individually.
3. they are not only SKILL based. Some are entertainment based...so even if you suck like hardwood, you can earn these medals.

After watching this video, I am impressed (even more than before) at how they are really pushing the player experience further than the normal gameplay. This elite portal is almost like a social media connection for gamers. I think MS should take note and built such a portal for XBL. I think it really enriches the gamers experience and their connection to this game franchise.

Meanwhile, BF3 is changing code to stop their servers from crashing when the game finally ships.....
