Modern Warfare 2 GET!
Gamestop was giving out free Monsters the whole evening. I got me a free poster. They also had two competitions, one for the fastest time in the opening training course and one for the fastest time on the snowmobile. I won both! They had prizes for the top 3, and for the first one I got a free movie ticket and a $5 gift certificate to a local restaurant and the second one got me two free movie tickets.
I gave the gift certificate to a Marine that just got back from deployment last week. He barely came in 4th.
For the record, I got 30.5 seconds on the obstacle course and 1:06.45 on the snowmobile.

by the way that monster energy shot they give you is the worse fucking thing anyone could ever come up with. It's like melted jello and cough syrup from hell.
Caved and picked up the PC version. Installing now, I did notice one thing, though: When I put in my CD key, I was told the game hadn't released and would be locked until 12:00 AM November 12. Post on the Steam forums say "retail users will be able to register their key and play the game on retail release (Nov. 10th)" but the rest of the internet can't make up it's mind.
I'll find out either way in about 5 minutes when disk 2 finishes, but damn this is going to hang over my head until then. I was kind of hoping to hammer out the single player tonight and have it out of my system when my raid week starts tomorrow.
I would hate to be Steam Support right about now. The combined nerd rage they must be getting.
MW2: "OMG, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I REFUSE TO PAY FULL PRICE FOR A LATE GAME, I WANT A REFUND."
L4D2(Aus\Germany): 'OMG THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. CENCORSHIP WTF?! I WANT MY MONEY BACK!"
Of course, anyone who uses Steam Support is automatically reduced to the emotional level of a five year old.
It was surprisingly a lot of fun! Very cinematic. As a shitty COD player, it was satisfying to take down so many targets without constantly having to take cover and such.

yeah, what the fuck? :P
I thought it was powerful. The first time I got pissed off and shot all my team.

Arg, the PS3 System Update keeps on stopping mid-download.

So after playing this games multiplayer its pretty lackluster. I mean its good and all. But it's the exact same fucking game as cod4,3,2,1....they improve nothing except for graphics, physics, and added some toys. I would have thought they'd maybe try to innovate something by now. I don't know a cover system maybe? leaning at least? Anything? Anything at all besides what you have been doing over and over and over. No? Ok. This will get boring fast.
Was number 93 and 94, out the door by 12:09am. Got mine, installing now after playing with the nightvision goggles for far too long.
how are they?
This is the most important question ever asked in the history of everything.
Really good. For as cheap as they are theyre fucking sweet. I got the game and ended toying around with them for a good hour before finally realizing I got a game in the box too. At that point I played that shit. And am still.
I also did the controversial mission and it was definitely something. I just felt like "wow, just fucking STOP!" the whole time. Wanted to kill my teammates and then man. That mission is great. I just kept thinking what itd be like if it really happened and is a scary fucking scenario.

anyone care to spoiler what this "offensive mission" business is all about?
In case you couldnt tell. Spoiler Alert.
You go in an airport and gun down shitloads of civilians in cold blood and watch as they scream and try to help each other and run away and shit. Before playing it I was all like "oh come on shut the fuck up about that its just a game." But its actually pretty powerful stuff.

SPOILERS
LIKE SERIOUS FUCKING SPOILERS IF YOU DON'T KNOW
You play an undercover operative that's infiltrated the enemy's terrorist outfit. You walk into a Russian airport with automatic weapons and gun down hundreds of civilians, then the police that come to stop you after you've taken out the whole airport.
so anyone has any PC impressions? I've heard on neogaf that, gasp IW net actualy works and that there is little lag, would like to hear some comments from this place (given that the IW forums are useless like always)

i dont get why you dont just kill the terrorist guy instead of killing hundreds of civilians. i mean whatever, its a game. but still... him and all his buddies are standing in front of you and youve got this huge machine gun...
also, why did i resist playing COD4 for so long? this game is really damn fun.
edit: also i suck terribly at multiplayer. like just so much.

EDIT: Oh shit the disclaimer for the "offensive mission" comes on before you even start a new game and asks if you want to do it.

The obstacle course in this is way harder than the one in COD4.

Clearly the OFLC don't actually play the games they rate, they just look at the box art and judge.
Still looking foreward to SP though.
