THE BUZZ: A piece of Modern Warfare 3 concept art has appeared online, apparently showing a mission with Captain Price.

Captain John Price was featured in both previous Modern Warfare titles, and has become a cult hero among Call of Duty fans for his endeavors during those games’ campaigns. The artwork depicts a jungle level with your character carrying a M4A1, Price’s preferred weapon of choice, and another soldier sitting in front of you who appears to be the man himself. If you look closely at the image you can see that the soldier is wearing a Boonie hat, the same type that Price dons during field operations. Could this be our first glimpse at the Captain?

EGM’s TAKE: We already know that Price will be appearing in Modern Warfare 3, continuing the story arc from the second game, and this soldier looks to share all of the hallmarks of the Captain.

What do you think? Is this Captain John Price?
