disappointing.

nooo

nnnnghh no game shop in town I work in, don't want to pay exhorbitant pre-order prices, can't get to midnight launch at cheap supermarket ggggggggggggggguhhhh

They charge you extra for preorders in England?

scotland. nah it's just supermarkets tend to do big games as super-cheap loss-leaders while pre-orders are all RRP and activision are scalping cunts when it comes to MW2's RRP

Well, while you're saving your five "squid" or whatever I'll be levelling up to destroy you

So the CoD in space rumors were true?!?

loving the lack of hype on ILG :)

I really hope shopto despatch my copy today: GF is away for the weekend = 48 hours of solid MW2 and some hardcore poopsocking

Heh, we were selling this yesterday for £65. But we nearly ran out, and had to bump it up to £75. It's still selling. And this is what, a <10 hour game? People are dumb!

i played the multiplayer of the first Modern Warfare for months, sometimes several hours a day. Easily 200 hours plus. I prestiged!

For coz it's a 300+ hour game!

JimD, it's really all about the multiplayer. Single player campaign is more like the bonus content.

I just checked and I played a little over 64 hours of CoD 4 multiplayer, so I think that's a pretty good value. Probably the only game I played more in the last few years (ever?) is Team Fortress 2.

Does the new game have an aracde mode that unlocks, like the last, and if it does, can it be played multiplayer, like in World at War?

I had 400 hrs logged on CoD4. 700 on SFIV. that's funemployment for you (except the 400 on cod were when I was a lolwyer o_O)

:O

:O'll me about it

700 on SFIV? jesus, no wonder you were so bitter

:***********(

^tears of bile

it's a great game, but that much online with that game would ruin it for anybody

(maybe even if the online play worked - just dealing that that many random internet assholes 1on1 would/probably has driven me crazy)

26 in sainsbury's grab it while it's hot

hype... rising...

excellent price - have they launched early or is that tomorrow?

tomorrow

it's £20 (!!!!!!!!) in makro

ridiculous, just ridiculous really

I was at a store yesterday (in Hollywood) that said they had over 300 pre-orders!

yeah, my local asda had 900 (!!!!!!!!!) pre-orders

mw2 is crazy

600 on 360, 300 on ps3

^^^ fanboy

I reckon I'm going to struggle tomorrow.

should be ok if you swing by sainsbury's at opening

this is def going to be sold out

Are peeps planning to do the story mode first or go right into multiplayer?

seeing as I suck at multiplayer...... It'll be story for me.

or... co-op?

I'll probably level up a bit in MP first (at least unlock hardcore modes) and then start the SP; I expect my li'l ro will want to co-op at some point

li'l roman?

hah, li'l broman

lol i just reserved a copy for midnight launch tonight. im a nerd imo

imo too iirc

you forgot the subject there

this leaked last week btw

So? GTA4 leaked like 18 months ago

no, I mean the game can be dl'd over the intertubes if you're a thieving 360 thief

I hope the single-player story has a bit more variety, rather than run to point A, shoot, run to point B do something else. Rainbow Six Vegas is the only realistic shooter that's gotten that right in my book.

Multiplayer can be fun, but I hate getting stuck with a bunch of 14 year olds who have nothing else to do but play. There should be a MP mode that requires age and employment verification.

I got it :D

oh god system update whyyyyy

PS3

ok it's pretty fun. impressed so far (tho the graphics seem a big step back after uncharted). ice-climbing. snowmobiling. shooting civilians.

can't wait to shoot the civilians tbf, going to go pick mine up in a minute

going to pick up yr civilians?

oh god fuck queues

omg latebloomer hahahaha

but yeah, i might get this for pc soon. looks decent.

Let me know how many dudes have prestiged by tomorrow morning

Oh I forgot to tell you but cex have been selling this since Saturday.

Bugger, still just got it for 29 quid from sainsburys (spending 30 quid on nappies to get a tenner off a computer game? Not whether I win hard or lose badly at life for that.........)

Right, off upstairs, what's the betting this lurgy gives me motion sickness.

Hmmm normally I leave the default classes well alone once I have customs, but that grenadier class is a proper deal. Always nice to get an ac130 on your first goodie drop too.

eavesdropping is GENIUS

best idea in a cod since ever

what is?

when you kill someone you get to hear the next 2 seconds of their voice comms over the headset

the number of "FUCKs" "FUCK YOUs" "YOU PRICKs" "WTHs" is brilliant

oh that's magnificent and sure to be swiftly abused.

lol.

im enjoying this well enough.only level 30 or so so my prestige for friday idea is looking ambitious.

And there was me chuffed to bits with getting to 17 on first day.... Mind you by tea time I was seeing through time thanks to this lurgy. As witnessed by me going from loads of kills per match early in the day to piss poor shows all afternoon.

Jesus, underground I just can't get my head around. Loving hard hat though

least this game isn't complicated

seems like you need to go through 7 menus just to pick a gun

Game has put me back 7 levels. Wtf.

So pissed off.

With resulting loss of weapons? That blows.

yup,it's the time i care about. 3 or 4 hours to get back where i was. Wtf. Weirdly has kept my progress for some challenges but has ones ive already completed still to be done. Guh.

Fuck. Main menu hover over multi. 14 hrs it says. Go in and it says 6. Fml.
