Yeah, people seem to think that for gaming you need an alienware computer. I got a quad core that I bought over a year and a half ago, and even then it was 900 bucks at walmart for a dell, with a 19 inch monitor, etc. All I have done to it was replace the ram, which cost 30 bucks, and got a 9800 GT card for 90 bucks with a free copy of CoD4. You can easily get that computer now for well less than 800 bucks, and the card for cheaper than I paid for it, and you can upgrade it for years. Where as the the lifeline of a console is what, 5 years now, except the ps2. And I have had a lot less and cheaper problems with my computer than I have with my 360, that's for damn sure.

Well, when you buy shit, you get shit. Stick with consoles. edit: HIGH FIVE BLECK! Wait, I shouldn't be agreeing with bleck. Wtf!

I did a melee only machete run on expert with bots as teammates. Got all the way to the alarm area and made it up to turn it off and got gang raped. Damn it was great.

I loooooooooooooooooove the magnum

I got my MW2 360 bundle last night. The 360 and 250 gig HD is so damn sexy, and 2 wireless black controllers as well. I didn't try MW2 yet though. But honestly, Ill play it some, and then I'll upgrade my video card in my pc in like a year and get MW2 for free for pc through that. Its win/win.

The awesomesness of mouse + keyboard, better graphics/resolution, and free online play/actual good online play should be enough to tempt you. If that doesn't, there's no point in even arguing it.

Don't worry BGC, INJIN has to bitch about something in any post he makes.

Why are you here Eulogic? You don't even play tf2 with us.

I preloaded like 2 nights ago. Went pretty fast then, but I think I caught it before the flood of people noticed. Now if only the 17th were here....

So basically for this to be pro, everyone must be medics or soldiers and be in square room map right? Cause all I see is complaining.

So apparently now Direct2Drive and a few other sites are not gonna sell MW2. This just keeps getting better and better. http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/51233/Stardocks-Impulse-Service-Refuses-To-Sell-Modern-Warfare-2-As-Does-Gamersgate

It was posted on the steam forums by the guys from facepunch studios. They then proceeded to say they "trolled" steam.

I personally love that there are common infected everywhere, even after events. I hated that about the first. You could do an event by triggering it, then running past the mob and not having to fight anything the rest of the level, if you could run fast enough. I want there to be a little bit of a challenge at least. And yeah, there will be steam sales on this, probably not this year, but next year for sure. Possibly a good one at christmas, since valve is good about that. Or theres always g2play

Unfortunately the Activision motto is "dumb the game down to the point where anyone can play it, and mass market it to the point of oversaturation". Like GH after GH2, Tony Hawk etc. MW2 is gonna be a huge hit. The local gamestop in my city has over 300 preorders, and two of the knoxville gamestops that are 1 mile apart are doing a combined launch on the midnight of, with 1300+ preorders. I'm not sure what kind of numbers on that would be PC gamers obviously, but I'm guessing 75% or more would be console. So this is easy money, with little effort for fan service. Best business practice if you have a market that'll shell out top dollar for mass produced trash.

I already went over Jovian's problems in the IRC channel last night. It seems he just wants to nitpick at the game and is biased right off the bat. The melee weapons are not all the same, and neither are the guns. The guitar makes for a great crowd killing weapon since you can take out multiple targets with it. The pan works great on the SWAT zombies, and the machete is just brutal for hordes. All the guns have different accuracies and power, making them more situational weapons, etc. Also, totally agreeing with vivi on the console version. Save the 60 bucks you'd pay for L4D2, buy some more ram or save a little more and get a good video card. There is no reason to be playing this on the 360. Plus, 4 pack much? 33.75 made this a great full game at expansion price. I don't see how people can bitch about that.

You mean the ignorant corporate minds that are going to make a killing on this game? Yeah, that's ignorant. People are gonna eat this game up, and the smaller userbase that actually feels they are getting screwed by this is not gonna effect this. I do love the name calling going on over this though

Damn spitter showered me when I was standing on a narrow ledge that had to be jumped down to to get to it. Of course it incapped me, and the bots couldn't save me. Damn it Rochelle

I'm sorry, but "in" thing and L4D on a 360 in the same sentence does not compute.

Everyone picking on atmuh, OGNO! Now I wish I'd played.

Anyone here get one of them? Since we can get them from dominating someone wearing them.

After getting Demon's Souls, I realize that wow, I suck at this game

I only got to play for 10 minutes last night but god damn what a great 10 minutes. I spent about 5 of it just running around frying panning zombies then dismembering them with the chrome shotgun. But yes the special infected AI is awesome, and I love the additions they made with zombie body armor and such. That damn Jockey is a bitch.

I prebought it cause it was cheap and got a preorder bat. The demo is just a nice bonus. Fuck anyone that preordered just to play 20 minutes and then complain they got burnt out.

It preloaded the demo again for me, so I'm guessing that they had to rework something on it really quick to get it ready. But seriously, there are threats to sue valve for this on their forum, people bitching they took off work yesterday to play it and want compensation for it, etc. It's beyond ridiculious to expect a game demo that will last 20 minutes tops to be something to rage over this much. I wish we would go back to the old days of pc game demos on disc in game magazines only, that'd show this lazy basement dwellers who's boss

nocrits. ROFL.
