I think many gamers are disappointed, user reviews for this game are very, very low

Not gonna lie. Pirated the game, feels about as much of the same single-player, if not a little meh after CoD4's. Also since I'd give it negative points fo multiplyer it falls somewhee in the 3-5 category, out of 10 of course.

How come you never told me you were a pirate when you argued that piracy was the same thing as renting games, and I asked you if you were defending it out of personal justifications of your own piracy?

I don't care how justified you feel in doing so, you are a leech to this industry, and a pirate, and I don't like it. Next time a game I don't like is released, I should ironically pirate it just to give it a biased review based on my love for a platform that I feel it has insulted by existing.

I infact downloaded it 6 times. Also you are just as big of aleech as I am, if not a greedier one considering you get money out of soomeone else's work.

Also I'm grading the game, it's got a single-player worse than CoD4 and absolutely horrendous and shitty multiplayer. Why does it deserve anythign above a 5?

You realize that with this, you'll never win again in a pro-PC argument against me. Some secrets should be best kept to ones-self.

That said, I'll let you bask in your passive-agressivism over your conquering and giving us your premetitatedly low review score of MW2, knowing that the MW2 battle is but a temporary one and ours is eternal.

Anyway, I don't think many PC fans will pirate it. I think they are disgusted with the game, and wouldn't even play if for free. I think they'll parrot the negative comments from IGN abou the SP in a half-hearted attempt to marginalize the game, but I think they'll fauxly confess to a crime they did not commit, just to vent about the game and gain some form of retalliation with the twisted logic that claiming piracy over the game is somehow a defeat to the developer, when ironically, they would have only actually pirated it if they thought it was going to be great.

Forgive my spelling, I'm too lazy to spellcheck it.

Spore got pirated 2 million times in 1 week because of intrusive DRM. Do you honestly think that what IW did won't garner i some serious attention from the PC people simply out of principle?

Ultimately it comes down to the fact that the single-player is slightly worse than CoD4's and the fact that the multiplayer is broken, gimepr, shitty, and might as well not have existed. That's a pretty good reasoning to give this game a 5/10 and a 5 is praising it a bit too much even.

Wait, what's wrong with the multiplayer?

For what i've seen.. This:



Check out my game about moles ^

multplayer is great, though down at them moment!

I'm afraid I will not be able to take user reviews for this game seriously. It seems like PC gamers are doing everything from pretending to be console players to acting like even the single player is terrible in order to hinder sales.

It plays like a tweaked COD4, which is what I expected. My initial impressions are the single player in CoD4 is better; whereas, the multiplayer in MW2 is better.

Also, try not to state your opinion on the Internet. People assume you have an ulterior motive. Not because you do, it's because they do.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

On metacritics, MW2 rivals Uncharted 2, LittleBigPlanet, and GTA4.... which is absurd. This game is above average, but not one of the best. The engine feels dated, and the graphics are very good but not excellent.

Graphics don't have anything to do with the quality of a game. Elite Beat Agents is as good, in my opinion, as any game on your list, and it's graphics are shitty. OOT is one of the best games of all time, and it's graphics are terrible. Crysis has far better graphics than anything you've listed, and good gameplay, but it's nowhere near as good as MW2.

I don't know why you're so hung up on graphics. The graphical presentation is fine. The game is v-synced at 60fps. It can only look so good on a console, and as good as the graphics are, it's actually stunning that IW was able to achieve those things. Imagine if you V-synced Drakes Fortune and then tried to actually play it.

The game is graphically impressive because of what it is able to achieve with performance on consoles at such a high level of graphical fidelity(vlock, 30-60fps, onscreen action that isn't wallpaper, ect), and that's why it got such high graphical scores, imho.


Crysis>MW2

lol so much for MW2 killing KZ2. Looks like it isn't the end all of FPS games after all. I'll be waiting for kz3 instead.

Ugh, here comes a flashback. . .

"You'll be completely reliant on IWnet for all the multiplayer"

While the gameplay wont be like that all the time, I still don't like the idea of being forced into matchmaking.

Lack of dedicated servers, 9v9, lack of mods, P2P, solely mathmaking. How can multiplayer get any worse than this is the question. Doom 2 almost had better multiplayer than this pile o' shit

So a game could have the best shooting mechanics and gameplay in the world but if it doesn't have features that you deem important then its a pile of shit. Good to know.

Too bad there are games out there that have better shooting mechanics and have been out for years... I dare anyone to try and defend this games shitty multiplayer.

Also they aren't just features but they affect gameplay heavily, which makes gameplay suck horribly.

For the record, Doom 2 also has some pretty good shooting mechanics. I should start comparing this game with FPSes from mid 90s just so I can give it a fair shot and not blowing chunks, and even then it would probably lose.
