Michael Phelps Proves Getting Out Is Good


Michael Phelps gets Call of Duty: World at War

It's not every day someone gets a game several months in advance. That's exactly what happened to swimming extraordinairre and now legend Michael Phelps, not even 24 hours after he landed back on US soil. In probably one of his last interviews before cooling off for a few months, CBS "awarded" Phelps with a PS3 copy of Call of Duty: World at War, saying, "We know you like Call of Duty so much, so here's a copy of the latest one from Activision."

Which begs the question: what would you do to get any game early? And, of course, Activision PR must be commended for that brilliant move.
