Oh god please no more!!! I confess i did spend less then 2hrs on the game before i uninstalled if off my pc. at least bundle the game with MoH2010 or black ops - If they bundled the game with black ops, everyone would love them. not this MW2 peice of shit

------

I suppose powercolour deserves an award for coming late to the MW2 party - MW2's only been out like a year already. somenone should tell them the games not worth anything anymore

They should bundle video cards with Oreo cookies. I like Oreos. MW2.... not so much.

Mw2 ?

Good coaster. Any one interested in this Failure I'm sure has already bought it by now. Hell I'd give mine away if it wasn't a steam game. Do they allow gifting it after you play it ? I do own a Powercolor 4870 and it is a good card. I think I got Frontline Fuels of War with it. Better game because of it's SP. Black Op's hasn't impressed me enough yet to say one way or another. MOH is OK, but I'm really wanting BFBC2 Vietnam. In my opinion Battlefield is a lot better then COD lately.

I think this would be worth getting out if they were able to make changes to the PCB Design and layout. Also I expected the cooler to be different, more like their older PCS+
