Trailer's a bit meh. What's the point of a "teaser" trailer that gives nothing away for something we already knew was going to be released (play.com have had MW2 available for pre-order for at least a month).

Anyway - enough negativity. This game will rock. Hopefully they can make the single player game a bit longer than in MW & keep vehicles out of multiplayer, but those are my only worries. Its still 8 months away yet.

it's a teaser trailer! does what it says on the tin!it does hint at a lot of stuff though, new levels etc, (you can see an oil rig, populated urban areas - it obviously involves the russians quite heavily)

play.com have been in trouble for the pre order thing before, taking orders for sequels that don't exist yet etc.can't remember when it was but I'm sure they were taking order for Duke Nukem Forever

at the risk of being accused of hijacking your thread what are people thoughts of on live?

if it means i can play top spec pc games on my much less than top spec pc then it sounds all good to me.

and i should think mac loving gamers will literally cream at the prospect of a bit of crysis

There's an interesting article on it here: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/gdc-why-onlive-cant-possibly-work-article

I pretty much agree with it.  It would be cool if it did work as advertised, but I don't see how it really could, especially in the UK where the infrastructure can barely support the usage of BBC iPlayer.

November?! Bah!

Can't wait for this!

[Dave Badger]

I can't wait to get my mitts on this.

I hope so too, was a bit ridiculous how quickly you got through the single on the first one almost seemed like it was just padding for the online game.

Dissss is da one. Trailer doesn't reveal too much tho   
It's a long wait

That Playstation quote made me laugh though!

yeah i heard somewhere that the PS3 loses fifty bux for every console sold or something zany like that. i think they forgot that most of the console market isn't the same as the pc gamer market, and values value as much as hardware ability and graphical capability.

Plus the games are shit.

GOW3 is the only exclusive that is remotely interesting atm.

I'm pretty sure Xbox360s were/are sold at a loss by Microsoft too. Somewhere in the region of $120 per console (based on the cost of the components inside).

The same guys that analysed the 360 did the same with the PS3 & reckon each of the original ones lost $300 per unit. Following the release of the cheaper model, they did the same & reckon on $50 per unit.

sony's getting fucked from all angles. even bioware isn't bothering with their console

It the PS3's indiedev market which is doing the best things. some really good little games on there.

COD-WaW was such a let down after COD4

Can't wait to get my hands on MW2!

serious noob pwning is afoot

[ronnie]

CoD: WaW isn't as bad as you lot make out, especially once Treyarch eventually fixed the glitches. Granted its not as good as 4 (although you could argue that the single player is much longer, which was my main criticism of 4), but its certainly not shit. You're just not good enough at it. Its always a bit disconcerting going from one game where you're of a reasonable standard & know the maps to one where you have no idea where you're going & getting pwnd by those that do. Especially when the controls are identical.

I've just finished completing the single player of 4 & WaW on Veteran & have got to say that WaW was more of a challenge (except Mile High Club on 4, which is nails).

As an aside, my view of WaW has increased dramatically since they removed Vehicles from hardcore. If they put vehicles in MW2 mp, I'll be most disappointed.

I totally think it's a awesome game and needed to be done. It uses the same engine as COD4 but with a WW2 skin, which is wear the attraction lies. It's a awesome game, but I am very, very excited about MW2 ........ooooohhh!

Totally agree & I'm also looking forward to MW2. Ear to the ground for the beta release, no doubt.

Its a good 18 months off yet, but it will be interesting to see where Treyarch go with the 7th installment. Every theatre & battle in WWII has been done to the death now.

[639]

I was blown away by the d-day landings in medal of honour.
then COD 1 brought more atmosphere and leaning.
COD2 gave WW2 bumpmapping and high polygon models (it still stacks up by todays standards)

COD3??? I think that was a gaming morsel/scrap from the table of PC gaming for console owners

Cod4 was just what was needed, modern weapons

COD5 is the apogee of the WW2 FPS.
Its undeniabley good. Any more expansions would definatley be flogging the dead horse though and would push even my loyalty to the genre.

I now have COH Tales of valour which suits my RTS tastes ( and this sh1tty weather)

Disagree. The controls in WAW feel clunky and shit. The environment just feels and looks terrible imo. Compared to COD4 anyway. Which is so smooth and precise. No comparison. I'd rather a shorter game that blew me away to anything like WAW.

Any of you played Dead Space? Loving that at the moment! Well scary!

I'm thinking of getting this soon, the original COH and opposing fronts are so good.

The new operation flashpoint looks spectacular

Infinity ward are going to have to up their game in terms of graphics to compete with that

I've heard vehicles have been confirmed for MW2 which I was disappointed with but its still going to be immense.

if anyone still plays MW on the PS3 add I up

Yeah, there were also vehicles in WWII. Doesn't make it good. Only cunts use the vehicles.

I agree! COD4 is so smooth compared to WAW, they got it just right with COD4 and I hope do not stray to far with the MW2.

it will only work if they make the levels much bigger.

just speculation but I also heard that the on-line games will be much more customisable (maybe just private matches) so this could mean that you can disable certain weapons. This would be great, you could disable grenades for example or the martyrdom perk.

I know that these things are used in real warefare but how often in real life do you get people randomly throwing grenades over 3 story buildings?!?

Yeah got that too. It's ok, quite fun with all the hacking people up an stuff but can see it getting old quite quickly. Cant wait for fight night 4 at the end of next month, seen anything on that? If not, go on gamespy.com and check the vids, looks absolutely IMMENSE!

AFAIK nothing, bar the teaser-trailer, has actually been released about MW2 from any official sources, but there's plenty of speculation out there. I'll wait until fourzerotwo/infinity ward release any firm details before writing off the game on rumours of mp vehicles. Hopefully IW will take on the good stuff from WaW & 4, cut out the shite & release a tits-out game that will keep me occupied for another 6 months (or more if there's more than 10 prestiges).

anyone on XBL fancies some COD4 this weekend, hit me up. I've been playing the non-hardcore a bit more. rondo101
