GAME has told CVG that Birmingham event GAMEfest 2011 will offer fans "the first UK hands-on preview" of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in September. GAMEfest will run from the 16-18 September 2011 at the Birmingham NEC, with the retail chain promising that attendees will be able to "play the most anticipated titles of the year before anyone else". Tickets cost £10 for anyone aged 12 or over and £5 for anyone under 12-years-old. They can be purchased from www.game.co.uk/gamefest. To buy tickets, would-be attendees must own a GAME reward card, which can be grabbed via game.co.uk or any GAME store. Anna-Marie Mason, marketing director at GAME said: "We are delighted that GAMEfest attendees can be the first consumers in the UK to have the opportunity to get hands-on with Modern Warfare 3 before it releases to the world. We know that our customers love to be first to play and with this year's sneak peek of the newest instalment of Call of Duty, GAMEfest once again proves it is absolutely the place to be."
