Someone private messaged me on the ps3 apologising for noob tubing, as he was trying to complete the challenges. I found it humorous that he even cared to say sorry.
Alright, I consider myself a well-balanced individual. I go to school, have a part-time job, a great circle of friends, enjoy reading and running and a drink or two on the weekends. Pretty standard fare, right? Then why am I so completely obsessed with this game? What is wrong with my brain? I`m even still playing Modern Warfare 2, having learned to work my way (mostly) around commando/tac-knifers and noob-tubers, and I fucking love it. I`m afraid I might have some sort meltdown if MW3 is going to be as balanced as I hope. What makes these games digital crack? ADD? Anyway, I`ve watched part of IGN`s livestream and the game looks...interesting. Maps are relatively small, but still more complex than the ones in Black Ops and without so many of those infernal bottlenecks.
A handful of Kmart's have broken the street date and started selling MW3 early. You guys might be lucky if you check out your local shithole Kmart. People are bidding over $140 on copies of the game on eBay, which is hilarious to me considering they can't play it online yet and by the time it's shipped to them, it'll be the fucking 8th. Example of stupid people: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRAND-NEW-CALL-DUTY-MODERN-WARFARE-3-PS3-HAND-/170722402030?_trksid=p4340.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSIC.NPJS%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUA%26otn%3D5%26pmod%3D290628027445%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D3933496857537404055" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRAND-NEW-CALL- ... 7537404055</a>
That's fucking retarded *bids 145* There's also this. Don't know if you clowns played Spec Ops, but this is fucking awesome right here. <a class="postlink" href="http://au.ign.com/videos/2011/08/09/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3-spec-ops-survival-trailer?objectid=69475" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://au.ign.com/videos/2011/08/09/cal ... ctid=69475</a>
Oh on the same subject with Kmart, here's a good way to get Call of Duty Elite for $30 if you play on Xbox, even cheaper method vs buying the gay hardened edition. They are having a promotional where if you buy MW3, you can get a 4000 Microsoft Point card for $30. Starting November 7th, you can buy COD Elite on the marketplace for 4000 MS points. Better than full price or the $40 it ends up costing for the hardened edition. Unless of course, you want the worthless shit that comes with it. In fact, here's all the deals their doing for that week (you have to signup for their rewards membership online, takes two seconds): Spend $40.00 or more in gaming software, get a $15 gaming coupon. Total must be at least $40.00 before tax (discounts and/or coupons used as payment do not affect pre-tax total). Conditions confirmed by Kmartgamer Spend $110.00 or more in gaming software in a single transaction, get $50 in gaming coupons (a $15 coupon and a $35 coupon). Total must be at least $110.00 before tax (discounts and/or coupons used as payment do not affect pre-tax total). Conditions confirmed by Kmartgamer ***Promo note 1: $15/$35 coupons valid from November 13 to November 23. Limit $100 in coupons from this offer for each SYWR account (max $50 in coupons per transaction so do 2 separate $110.00+ transactions to max out the $100 in coupons) ***Promo note 2: You can use previous gaming coupons on this offer, your gaming software total has to be $40.00/$110.00 before tax/coupons (Gaming hardware/live/point cards do NOT count towards the $40/$110 total) Buy Modern Warfare 3, get 1 of these offers in the same purchase: * Xbox Live Gold 12-month card for $39.99. or * Xbox Live 4000 Microsoft Point card for $29.99. Kmart will not have the PC version available for sale. There will be a very limited stock of Hardened editions, either 1 or none per store. source The downside to this is that you have to actually step inside a Kmart. The best part is you can then use the gaming coupons to buy Skyrim.
So the big story about Elite, you will be able to compete cross console, with stats only.... I guess this would be a question to nettdata but would it be insanely hard or impossible to be able to have a multiplayer that you could play against people on different platforms? Comparing stats is fucking LAME, I'd rather crush my shit talking friend with an Xcox. by handing their asses to them in game.
I play Eve Online, and the company that makes it is making a game called i think Dust 514 which is a a FPS'ish based in the Eve world, that is both on PS3 and PC, and you can play cross platform. From what we have been told/i remember only reason that it isn't on XBOX is that mircrosoft wouldn't allow them to do something(run multiplayer off xbox live?) that would allow them to run multiplatform. It is the first of it's kind, but it hasn't been released yet, so who know if it is blowing smoke up our asses.
No idea what it is, but playing MW2 these last few days have been the fucking best. Its like the shittiest people playing and I've gotten AC130s on two maps I've never gotten 13KS on. Afghan and Scrapyard. Those were consistently my two worst maps. I love it. 3 more days bitches!
Walmart is having a MW3 tournament at 8pm Monday and is also giving away shit like shirts, patches and posters. It's a free tournament and as far I know, you don't have to preorder to be a part of it and the winner gets MW3 for free. Here's a list of the 2,700 stores hosting this event (protip: pick the smallest one that nobody is bound to attend so you have the best shot at winning). There's so many shitty one nears me besides the Super Walmarts that I can't decide! <a class="postlink" href="http://see.walmart.com/gamecenter/downloads/COD-MW3_WM.com_Flyer_FIN.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://see.walmart.com/gamecenter/downl ... er_FIN.pdf</a>
It looks like people are playing the game early, here's a commentary I found His "2.5" comments bring up past concerns I had with the price tag. The game play looks great, but the graphics look the same, the call signs look reused, and most of MW2's guns are returning. From looking solely at multiplayer, there's no way I'm paying full price for this. Don't get me wrong, I loved MW2 and sunk an embarassing amount of hours into it, but this looks more like an add-on than a full-fledged sequel. I'll wait to see if reviews and friend's opinions confirm this. If not, I'll keep an eye out for a sale on amazon around new years after 10+ million copies were sold.
Based on that video alone I am not very impressed, that really looked like someone playing on a new MW2 map. I already paid for the Hardened edition but I will be disappointed if it turns out to be MW2 Reloaded.
I thought that was a good review, despite all of the hate in the YouTube comments. It would have been nice if xJawz had touched on a few things like the quality of the maps, if there are perks/weapons that have the potential to be abused, and so on, but beggars can't be choosers I guess. The lack of stopping power as a perk will be nice, and I actually liked the amount of recoil and sway on the guns in the video. Come tomorrow I will still buy the game, partially because MW2 was the first FPS I ever played, and partially because I am an idiot. I am just going to go in with the expectation that the game will most likely be a minor upgrade to MW2 as opposed to an entirely new game. And if the game is actually more fun to play than the initial reviews claim, even better.
I will masturbate on a child's face in front of his/her parents if it is nothing but MW2 Reloaded. Anything more is having sex with Aphrodite after a 2 year dryspell on top of my new fucking Veyron. Can you tell I'm hyped? Can you? WOO!
Oh I am excited, although I checked Amazon about an hour ago and my copy hasn't shipped yet. I had release date delivery as the shipping option, so I hope I get it tomorrow. Anybody else order from Amazon?
Yeah so GameStop has shit starting at 6pm today. I also went by yesterday and saw two little snot nosed brats playing at 7pm (the store closed at 6.) I was furious because I wanted to grade my games in. I don't remember any store being sold out of Black Ops so hopefully I can pick my shit up tomorrow morning without killing anyone.
I did, like four hours ago. I've pre-ordered two games from Amazon in the past couple weeks with release date delivery and neither of them shipped until around 11pm Monday night but I still had them by 3pm Tuesday afternoon.
I may have missed it, but how does Pato already have MW3? It shows him as playing online right now. The fuck?
I'm such a greasy fuck. I stopped at Target and wrote in my phone the codes printed on like 20 Doritos bags for the double xp shit since they print them on the packaging and not inside the bag. The codes can be used a second time on a different account so it's not like I'm totally screwing anybody, but now I have a fuckton of double xp time. I suggest you all do the same if you are like me and lack morals and ethics.
