I know I'll probably get flamed for this, but I read the latest info out on rpscg's link and I still am getting it. Actually already did, just waiting.
I don't know how to tweak and hack and all that crap so the closer some one is to having the same abilities as me the better. More then 9 per team is crazy as hell too. I have gone onto Dedicated servers where I ate guys up and was called a hacker because I was better. Now that is annoying as hell when I don't have a clue on how to do any of that. I do realize to play against some one in my own home now I will have to have 2 copies of the damn game. I don't like that, but it'll make up for that in other ways. The folks that have played it so far are giving it great reviews on Console and PC.

Yeah as my friend has to keep telling me, there is no lack of good FPS, and even COD games for pc.

I hope mw2 fails on PC, I really do...

I have been waiting for Borderlands for months, and it has lived up to my expectations almost entirely. Give it a try if you are even a little interested. :P

If you like FPS and guns, you will probably like it.

I looked into Borderlands as well. I heard it was great from some people and just okay from others. You just have to play it yourself and find out I guess

I still want to get MW2 to continue the story. But 6 hours for $60 is a disappointment.

$10 bucks a hour.. Sounds like I could do the following for 6h better fun.

Baters Box
Go-cart
Mini-Gulf
Pool
Strip Club (maybe a 3h sit, but still be about the same)



..... The list can go on... & on....

Yeah revenge, look a few pages back.. we link to an article that shows them [IW] defending the fact it's only a 6h SP game

After reading articles and forums posts I think this is a sad day on all fronts.


If you have a console I see no reason to purchase the PC version.

One question I would love to ask:
Will cross-platform(PC,xbox,ps3) players be able to play with each other?

If the answer is NO and they will all be segregated that's just another kick in the teeth for the PC version as you will have all PC users on their own data base just compounding the lack thereof to handle cheaters since VAC would only handle it, laugh.

On the other hand having no cross platform playing ability further protects the console players from coming across the PC downfall mentioned above.


Considering all of the above mentioned, and things read to date relating to the lack of features within MW2. You'd figure with such a downed game, drastically reduced ability to alter settings/features the game on PC would force consistency checks within VAC and make it so no files can be modded/altered to even log in and play boot the game. I'm not to hopeful regarding the above even though it's almost 2010 and this game has stripped most of the things that could cause trouble relating to PC versions of games I doubt it will be implemented.
