I also read the box is made of real sturdy cardboard. When you try to
flush it, it'll clog up your toilet.

I don't even care about this game, so voting with my wallet is a
non-issue. I don't have time to dedicate to multiplayer, and the
single player on the first one was mostly running as fast as possible
in the direction of the HUD arrow. It actually undermined itself by
not letting you take in much of the game world, presumably because the
game world is about as hollow as a movie set. Letting you have even a
peek would destroy the illusion of any substance.

I love that every time these things come up about PC games "dying",
shit-dicks start in with the piracy thing. Well, I've heard that same
PC game dying shit since the first Playstation came out. Let it go,
it's not gonna happen. There are MILLIONS of PC's out there, and
someone is always going to capitalize on that market. Maybe it will be
better if all these mainstream shitbags give up on it, since what we
get from them is typically the gaming equivilant of Amy Winehouse.

Guess what one of the top pirated games right now is?

THIS piece of shit, for the XBox 360. Suck a dick all you
self-righteous console drones. You're no better than us after all.

Holy crap, what a bunch of aresholes.  To be fair, I didn't play COD:MW
online that much anyway (probably about 5 hours), so I don't think it
will affect my purchase decision *that* much,  but this is staggeringly
arrogant.

To be fair, after home taping killed music - just as we'd been warned it
would - these guys should be listened to more than they are.  Oh, hang on...

Ditto a 6 hour single player experience who are they trying to kid?
Multiplayer is good and all but its just a quick blast now and again for me,
nothing special about multiplayer. I buy games for the atmospheres the
effects and the immersion. Call of Duty was superb but I was a bit bored on
a few of the missions. I played it to the end and wouldnt want to play
another. Give me ARMA2 anyday.

Nah, running around with a gun and shooting is not my type of game.I'd avoid such games anyway... So what's your meat with MW2?

Interested to hear you say that, I`ve not played either, but from what
I've seen Arma II looks more my cup of tea.

Any main comparison points you'd make?
