For anyone that owns Modern Warfare 2, it’s likely that it might not have left your disk tray since you purchased it. You’ll have either been completing the story and then replaying on Veteran, buddying up to play Spec Ops, engaging in the multiplier or continuously playing through one of the tutorial levels.
You might not agree with that last one, but somebody certainly would. Over on the WePlayCOD Forums, a user by the name of Cannonsimp has screenshot evidence of him beating Infinity Ward’s best time for the tutorial level ‘The Pit’.
Whilst it’s not strictly a tutorial, the exact same level is also included in Spec Ops mode. Cannonsimp has managed to complete the level in 00:22.50 (or 22.5 seconds). That’s a whole tenth of a second faster than IW’s best of 22.6 seconds.
Think you’re better? You’ll find the level in Spec Ops>Alpha>The Pit.
Update: Mr. BeefJack -
Thanks BloodEye for sending us the link! 22:10 (with proof) is the time to beat. Impressive stuff!

That’s not so amazing… On Call of Duty 4, IW’s best time on F.N.G. was 15.1 but me and a friend eventually got down to 13.06
Plenty of other people beat IW times too – this is not article worthy…

This is not even close to artical worthy i saw this and tried it. About 30 min. of trying i nailed 20.40 like nothing. 22.50 is what by now id concider a bad time.

I don’t get it? what’s so important about this?
IW’s best time….seriously another waste of article. There are lots of hardcore games with developer’s best time included to the game. Epic games have this, so what if you beat a developer’s score, what so special about that or important?

@Zen Kudos – Do you have a copy of the email? That’d certainly be newsworthy.

Who cares about times on the pit? The very first spec ops lvl., no opposition? So hard!! My friend and I just got all 69 stars, and set a new record (2:43) on High Explosives Veteran, thats 4 seconds shaved off IW’s time, btw. I DO IT FOR THE CONSOLE-LESS!!!

15 seconds? That’s impressive considering simply sprinting round the corse without slowing to shoot anything (bar the single knife) took me just under 18 seconds.
Not saying it’s a lie just saying I can’t see how that’s possible.
Best time – SSDD – 21.6 sec
The Pit special ops – 21.9 sec (2 people)
