I dont think so... It's still 60 MRSP I think.. I was actually thinking about buying it the other day to play with some friends.. But I'm not paying 60 bucks when an improved version is coming out shortly.

I'm really thinking about MoH. I just don't want to support Activision.

For a long time I'd never played a COD game, and didn't see what the fuzz was about. Then I tried Killzone 2's multiplayer and was hooked. Played MW2 at a friend a couple of weeks ago and had to order the game. It gets addicting. But i see where the other guys are coming from. If you've played games like these for many years, it starts to thin out. I on the other hand, am totally new to online shooters so I'm having a blast.

You should buy it, or at least give it a rent, the campaign and Spec Ops alone will give you 20-30 hours of enjoyment.

I also thought about getting Modern Warfare 2. It's like 25 Euro now. Can anybody confirm that you can't play Spec Opcs with somebody who has a different version than you? I'm going to buy the UK version and it seems that Spec Ops won't work with players who own the german version. The regular multiplayer is not affected by this.

I wouldn't buy modern warfare 2 for just the campaign. I thought the multiplayer was pretty fun. It is definitely one of the best shooters out there.

I would just wait on it. Or at least buy Medal of Honor cause that game hasn't been ruined by cheating, glitching, and terrible spawn systems yet. So might as well start fresh, and that game could be some fun.

exactly. I 'm bored of MW2 now, after 21 days of gameplay, you can do the math and see how much hrs that was, although most of that time is waiting to get a match or getting an OUT OF MEMORY error in the midst of a match. I'm getting Medal of Honor day 1 because thats the only day I can get it from someone who'll be in the states for that day, and it'll suit me until I can get Black Ops. If you can , get BOTH at some point

You could rent if for the single player experience as I doubt this close to black ops no one is going to let you borrow their game.

Yeah it's a quandary... Buy a great looking game and support a demon? Or ignore it and not support them but miss out on a game that was designed on the PS3 and looks amazing? Tough one...

Yes, I actually bought the game and really enjoyed it instead of just hating on it, it's a good game, and people who always hate on it are just trying to conform to what everyone else (on GS) is doing.

No MW2's multiplayer is terrible...

Get COD4 instead. It's cheaper and way better.

I may be completely off, but I'm picking up on a sarcastic tone... I'm just curious about your position.

Either way, people should always have their own interests in mind, and if boycotting a company grants those people more satisfaction than the satisfaction they derive from using that said company's product(s), then more power to them...

Generally speaking, I find the idea of "abhorrence toward a company because it's powerful that exceeds the desire to use that company's products, especially if the use of those products is something you would normally enjoy" quite silly... but there are people who think that way, and it's no one's place to tell them anything otherwise.

With all of the criticism of MW2 aside (and believe me, there's plenty of it), considering BO is just around the corner, I would wait for it instead of investing in any other cod game.

This game really has bots? I wonder if you can play with 2 player split screen against bots. This is what I have been waiting for. Where did you hear that the game has bots?

Personally this game has collected more dust that most of the games I own. I would definitely say save your money, there are many better things to waste dough on than this beat old hag.

no bots, but hte spec op mode condenses the single player levels, letting u play co-op and has a nifty high school system. if ur someone who gets addicted to speed runs and high score marks its great fun and doesnt ramp up when u add a friend in.
