I was thinking about buying it but after seeing the gameplay at E3 I don't know, it doesn't really interest me now. I still may play depending on the reviews.

i would imagine that this would be less than 60 considering its online only

i will probably get this instead of modern warfare 2, i'm all moderned out, i just got world at war this week for 20 bucks so i'll probably play that for a while

the 256 sounds cool on paper but i am curious as to how it will play out, but there are other modes like 64 player deathmatches and smaller team deathmatches i think too so there is variety if the structured thing does not fly with you

The Wii owners are like Ewoks. The Evil empire will tolerate them but turn their forest moon into a secret base.

I'm interested to see if the squad-based gameplay really works out in practice. Will anyone actually follow their squad leader's orders? Will there be effective in-game incentives to do so? Or will people just run around doing their own thing?

I was actually more impressed by the set-up in Brink, which is only 8 v 8 but has an AI squad leader that automatically hands out multiple objectives to be completed, and each player is free to choose which ones they want to complete themselves in order to best help the team, with the more important objectives offering up the most XP, and mandatory objectives highlighted so the team knows someone has to do it, or automatically filled by an AI partner if the human players don't want to do it.

I'll definitely pick it up, but the game could easily get lost in the holiday shuffle, wouldn't mind seeing released in early 2010 to allow for more hype build-up & better release window

Depends on what do I have to pay. Looks interesting though.

Sorry the fps to own this year is Modern warfare 2.

Sales? Yeah.

Wait how many call of duties are they at now? And it's the same generic crap over and over again?

Atleast MAG is bringing something relatively new to the table, rather then the same game over and over and over again.


Well Modern warfare was new to the series and look how popular it is.

But everyone has an opinion and i speak for myself i will get it first day.

It's new, but its still call of duty, obviously people will buy it.

In my opinion, it will always be a generic shooter, they just add new maps and guns, that's about it.

Don't fix what's not broken?

Then why was the original call of dutys multiplayer better ?

oh yeah and to continue my post. If they hadn't changed the mp we wouldn't have gotten the nazi mode in cod 5 which is frankly the best part of cod online in my opinion :p

I'm going to wait for a couple of reviews and at least until I try the game myself before I decide. If it's done right I will buy it.

and I'm like Darth I'm waiting on Starhawk.

You mean COD4? Well COD4 online is superior to COD5 because:

- Far far far far better guns. I mean M16 > STG, Barret 50cal > Springfield.

- Has far better maps and environments

- Better online community

- No nooby tanks

- Less glitches

- Helicopters > Dogs

- And the fact that 'Modern Warfare' is far better than ancient warfare.
