Yeah I don't know what the fuck you guys are talking about with all this collectors edition bullshit but the PC version of MW2 is 60 fucking bucks. Now nobody seems to agree with Aion here but I sure as hell do. 60 bucks for a PC game? That's fucking ridiculous, I'm not even going to look at this trailer because I know I'm not going to buy it, as good as it is. I'm not going to risk having to pay 60 bucks for every PC game I buy because greedy ass Activision doesn't think they're making enough money off of the PC.


Most importantly however is the fact that Aliens Vs. Predator was and will be one of the best multiplayer games ever made and that I'm crazy excited for a modern iteration of such an awesome series of games.

I'm sorry, but... What the fuck.
$60 dollars for a game... even on pc... is... completely fucking normal.
@Aion7... Did you just imply you don't live in Europe.. why are you arguing about a price rise in Europe!!! this site is American.
@gtakiller7 *ahem* learn2spell n00b.

First of all to all the people who are putting down MW2 because they say it will be like all the COD games are indefinitely wrong. BTW.... ITS GONA BE GOOB BECAUSE THEY BROKE AWAY FROM THE COD FRANCHISE AND IT ISNT CODMW2 IDIOTS! it looks awesome though along with assassins creed 2

Yep! I agree with aion7 and I'll probaby just rent it to finished the singe campaign like I did for MW 1. I like IW but until they cut there ties with Activision they're dead to me.

that's a brilliant idea. Dont buy one of the most hyped and exciting games of the year - the sequel to 2007's GotY and possibly 2009's GotY.
You're nuts and also extremely naive if you expect anyone to follow your advice.
MW2 = awesome.

Alon, you must be mixed up with your dates. I'm pretty sure all of those games are already beaten by people! Seriously, Half life 2? That's OLD!!!!!!! What will you suggest next, Golden Eye? Doom? And yeah, you got a point with wolfenstein, it's new, but that's it! People already bashed through killzone, mirror's edge, and those other games!

Oh, and last time I checked, all console games except for wii games were 60 dollars! Moron.

Good god, I can hardly wait to play AVP. I've never played any of the other ones, so this will be my first chance to crawl around the exo-skeleton of the perfect hunter.
(Xenomorph, not Predator, Predator need to wear crap to hunt, with Xenomorphs, it comes naturally)

uh dude, wtf are you talking about?
they charge 60 bucks for the game
same as most other games.....
if you dont feel like shellin out the cash, thats your choice...
but many of us CoD fans like seeing the improvement between each CoD game...

if you havent noticed CoD4 has incredible improvements over its successors. CoD5 while not entirely improving anything...brought good ideas to the table. such as its nazi zombie mode.
with modern warfare 2 we have and are already seeing improvements...built around the game play we all love and know from CoD
so if you cant realize that gameplay is what makes CoD, then your mistaken in your judgement.
we buy the next iteration of CoD to add a little spice and keep play something new but familiar..

but there is no law saying you have to buy it.
if some one doesnt want too buy it. they wont.
for those of us who do. will.

What? 60 dollars for a non collectors edition PC is not normal! Its unheard of, plain and simple nobody has had the balls to price gouge the PC game SKU, mostly because those extra 10 dollars (I don't know what it is in UK EU) are going to the console manufacturer as royalties.

If you're not outraged by this then you clearly haven't played many games. This is absolutely unacceptable. People should just get together and pirate the game and make it the most pirated game in history. Because that's what Activision deserves for this absolute bullshit.

Activision is stupid, but Infinity Ward isn't. They put hours and hours of hard work into Modern Warfare 2, making new changes and listening to our feedback, and now people are saying not to buy it. How do you think that would make them feel? Like shit.
Eo1spy  - 3 months 10 days ago 
What Aion was trying to say was that the price of MW2 has been raised by £10 (and the equivalent) everywhere in Europe and possibly everywhere else in the world on every platform(except the US of course, who get everything for a better deal) - Which is ridiculous, the RRP is now £55 ($90).

Although a lot of retailers knock off £10 usually; £45 ($74 - and Americans complain about $60 games) for a video game is absolutely ludicrous.

All this price-raise by Activision is going to do is get other major publishers to follow suit and release their games for £45 as well. Thus making gamers spend even more money on games when there is still a RECESSION on in a lot of countries.

I guess all the people who have said "Quit your whining" etc. are American, therefore are seemingly not affected by this price raise...

In short: I am not going to by MW2 on release, hopefully buying used later on in the year, so that Activision gets no money from me.

avp and mw2 look awsome cant wait 4 ever 2 come out
magicwalnuts0  - 3 months 10 days ago 
Wow Xboxrules all I want to do right now is peel your skin off and use it for jerky.


But besides that Infinity Ward doesn't have a reason to feel like shit that people are saying not to buy their game. They should feel like shit that Activision is trying to manipulate the market by using their game to raise PC game prices. I still can't believe nobody is outraged by this.

Aand my comment was removed by the community, and stuff like "omg ain7 is teh stuped mw2 if def goty cuz infenty werd can do no rong u teh sux old games r old an nobod plays them. all games r 60$ MW2 is 60$." Not only is this extremely ignorant (other countries exist, and many people buy this sort of game on PC). Also, because a game is old, it's not worth playing? What? Tons of people still play CS. CS isn't dying anytime soon. Etc. etc.

What are these huge improvements in CoD 4, anyway.
magicwalnuts0  - 3 months 10 days ago 
Oh wow, and they removed his comment, that's awesome. You people aren't gamers, you just have a boner for this one shooter, among many shooters. You couldn't give any less of a shit about how messed up this is.
gtakiller7  - 3 months 9 days ago 
wot is messed up? just buy mw2 and enjoy it
