Unless you've been living in a spider hole the last few years, the "Call of Duty" series should be familiar. It's one of the biggest-selling, most highly acclaimed video game franchises out there. The next installment, "Modern Warfare 2" is due out on November 10, and if the pre-order numbers are any indication, expect the U.S. economy to actually collapse next week as the entire country takes a simultaneous sick day to play.

However, a controversial video posted by Infinity Ward, the company developing the game, may cause some to rethink their purchase.

The PSA, featuring voice-over work by Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels (who may soon have plenty of time to sit around the house playing video games), decries the notorious act of tossing grenades randomly during online firefights as something only "for p**sies" -- his words. While this probably won't make anyone remove the "Frag x3" perk from their loadouts, it's when the video wraps that the "a-ha!" moment appears: the words "Funding Provided By: Fight Against Grenade Spam." The acronym of this fictional sponsor is "F.A.G.S."

The video was officially pulled amidst harsh criticism. Watch for yourself and tell us if you think it goes too far.
