You do know not everyone has capable computers to play MW2?

Not everyone has capable consoles to play it either.  What's your point?

If you own a $200 360 or $300 PS3, you can play MW2. Put disc in. Select disc. See logos. Play.

If you own a PC with sufficient hardware specifications, and the latest video drivers, not to mention Windows updates and service packs, you might have a chance of being able to run it with an official Infinity Ward patch, after fiddling with some of the files.

I miss the days when PC gaming was good, and not all about hardware requirements, massive installs and stability patches.


Yeah if you own a 360 you can play MW2 no matter what, but if you own an original Xbox, you can't.

If you own basic PC you can play MW2, and if you own a crappy PC you can still play MW2 due to tweaks, PC settings, in game modifications, graphical settings etc.

The PS3 was at 599$ at launch, you can get a 500GB DX10 MW2 compatible PC for 380$. As for Windows updates, service packs, video drivers etc. It all comes with the latest out of the box. Those things are just for maintenance. But there is some in-game fiddling with settings to make it run smooth.

So for the price of a console (today) + MW2. You can get a MW2 compatible PC.
