Would you really call it rape? I have both systems and I'd much prefer paying for the PSNetwork if it made it better. My connection in online PS3 play is, on average, half to 3/4 as reliable as my Live connection. For 3.33 a month (12 month card for 39.96 on Amazon), I'll fucking take it. On the subject of WoW, it was 15 bucks a month, but the addiction level of that game makes it feel like the best 15 dollars you've ever spent.
Ive read that they want to make CoD a year to year franchise just like Madden or any other yearly sports game. Unless they somehow deliver a stunning product I really could see the CoD brand being watered down by the same model that has stagnated games like Madden. I love playing MW2, as bad as some say it is, but just branching out to God of War this past week has had me licking my chops for different styles of games. They would have to really deliver something substantial every single year to keep it up. Besides this Y2k snafu the other night and some server connection stuff from time to time my online gaming on PlayStation has been nearly flawless. I really don't know what extras the Xbox Live stuff has over PSN but plugging and playing is basically all that I need. Paying 40 to 50 bucks a year for the entire duration of a systems life (5-6 years) and you'll be paying an additional 90 percent of what the system cost originally. If IW wanted to charge on top of the Xbox Live fee, which I don't know if they could, THAT would be raping the consumer.
http://kotaku.com/5483348/report-st...finity-ward-president-ousted?skyline=true&s=i More confirmation Rumors circling that Infinity Ward President and MW2 Chief Director was axed by Activision. The reason is listed as "insubordination" and "breach of contract." It all seems rather bizarre. I read in another article that West said in an interview last year that Activision actually never wanted the MW franchise, seeing a modern setting as risky. It appears he's had a long-standing tension with the company in that case.
Treyarch needs to stop making games, or at least get the fuck away from COD. Aside from COD5 which was still, in my opinion, not that great, every COD game they've made has been a big steamy pile of shit. I'd rather wait two years instead of one to have Infinity Ward strictly make them. And whats the deal with them leaving Activision? Some random developers called Sledgehammer Studios (at least I think that's their name) are going to put out another COD game in the next year or two as well.
I seriously feel that PS3 should invest in their online play, it is the main selling point of the 360. I had MW2 on PS3 and got annoyed with online so now play it on 360.
So... which one of you is Teflondon84. I keep forgetting. Whichever one of you that was got dropped and missed a 51-9 TDM match although your friend was there I'm pretty sure.
Oh yeah bitches, we get us a new map pack! <a class="postlink" href="http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Stimulus_Package" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Stimulus_Package</a> Spoiler Stimulus Package[citation needed] is a downloadable map pack scheduled to be released for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 in Spring 2010[1]. It will be available for the Xbox 360 thirty days earlier than for other systems[2]. The downloadable content includes five maps. Two maps make a reappearance from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare: Crash and Overgrown. The other three are Complex, Compact, and Storm. Kinda sucks if you have a playstation. This should come as no surprise. Because Bill Gates said that the playstation was made for little girls and fags. I'm just kidding, he didn't really say that. (That I know of.)
Yeah thats me. I swear Ive never seen as many servers time out as I did today. I think we might have been a minute thirty in and you already had a chopper gunner killstreak, then bam I got dropped. Luckily, I found my performance enhancing drug of choice, espressos. No 51-9's but I did have two or three 25-6's. Im only 320 away from getting to 1.0, should pass it in the next week.
Got my win ratio over 1.00. Gotta say that is pretty impressive considering I play mostly Merc TD and I seem to always get stuck with the 5 dumbest people in the room.
Crash and Overgrown are great choices for maps, two of my faves from the first MW. I'm curious to see how the others are, but being on the PC it's going to be a while
I'm curious what people use for their title and emblem, and why they chose them. For me I use Juggernaut with the blast shield emblem. Those were the two biggest pain in the ass one's I've gotten, and I've rarely seen anyone else with them. I can't tell you how shitty my rounds were when I had the riot shield w/ blast shield. I couldn't kill anybody, but I stuck it out just to finish these two fucking challenges.
Global Thermonuclear War and the black skull emblem. I'm just really proud of myself for getting 2 nukes and the skull actually looks pretty cool unlike most of the other ones (at least I think so).
Been using 6Fears7 lately, mostly because I never see anyone else using it. For an emblem I've been using the cow getting abducted by a UFO because it's green like the callsign, and not a weed leaf.
A week or so ago when I had the internet, i was getting pretty sick of COD and wouldnt play it when i had the chance. Now, going a week not having the internet, im wanting to play pretty badly. Hopfully xplornet will call me back so I can get them to hook me back up. Assholes.
I use All Pro because I'm pretty proud of myself for getting that one (two headshots one bullet) for my title. My emblem is the one with a zombie hand with the purple outline throwing up the horns. Don't remember exactly what I got it for but I like it. I think it was for dominating the other team or killing them all within so many seconds of each other or something like that.
Gold intervention skulls (1k headshots with the intervention) and the rotating tactical nuke emblem (10 nukes) I sometimes but rarely use the gorilla in enemy of the state (be the last person alive in SnD vs 3 people and win). Might use the all pro one now that you mention it.
