I can get it for pc, 360, or ps3... I know the pc version will look best but i hear theres no dedicated servers and theres been lots of hackers so im not sure. No idea which is better out of the console versions.

Depends which controller do you prefer.

I'd say X360.

I'd recommend 360. No dedicated servers and prevalent hacking really bring down the PC version. The Xbox controller > PS3 controller for FPS games. Therefore, the Xbox 360 version is best IMO.

Although, I still prefer CoD4 over MW2. =/

Get the pc version, so what if there are no dedicated servers? Neither the consoles have dedicated servers, so the pc version can't be worse than the console versions because it has something the console version already lack!!!

I don't think so. It doesn't make much sense, tbh :P

It is much more likely to find hackers.

You can't really go wrong with either, but I would say the 360 version is a step above. I find there are more friendly people on their mics and the 360 controller destroys the PS3's for shooters.

I would seriously consider the wii version. At 6 frames per minute, you can actually see the individual bullets fly and then avoid them.

Facebook has nothing to do with Modern Warfare 2. Controllers and multiplayer do.

it matters not which you choose to play it on.

The XBOX 360 has kiddies and so does PC, trust me there are so many 11 year olds on the PC version. They never shut up and they take the game so seriously.

MW2 is just MW1 with a strawberry jelly graphics mod.Reflex is on the Wii and it looks comparable to the PS360 versions.

Even 6frames per minute is like a slideshow. You couldn't dodge a turtle with that frame rate.

umm, you forget that the Xbox version has 2.33x as many people. Meaning that less popular game modes won't be as populated on the PS3 version, so if TC likes that game mode it means: more waiting.

consider the possibilities, instead of a one-sided assumption.

it would also guarantee longer game lifespan on that platform.

I'll commend you for trying though.

Microsoft, in their almighty glory has invented something so revolutionary, so unheard of, so unbelievably simple to use: the mute.

you get 60 seconds to mute 6 players, use it. Oh, and people with mics have a symbol by their name, assuming it's 4 or so people who even have one on a team, it's even easier.

He said, 6 frames PER MINUTE. And I didn't say it has 6fps anyways. And no, it runs at 30FPS with dips, with lower resoltuion and graphics because the Wii is last generation hardware.

It's been proven that the 360 version is better.

Than the PS3 version that is.

No real cheating on 360 or PS3 versions. There is some on PC though not too much compared to other PC shooters. I personally own it on PS3 and PC. PS3 for me and PC I got to play with certain buddies.

Dont get it, I decided not to buy after I borrowed it from a friend for a month and a half. I went from being on every day to being on like almost never because of the sheer amount of bugs/glitches/hackers. Also, its horribly unbalanced. But you know if people arent hacking/glitching/modding/using akimbo models the game is reeeally fun. Its just frustrating to realise that that theres a new glitch every week.

the pc version has the superior controls by a long shot. controllers are junk for shooters next to k/b, and the pc versions mp was just made the same as the the consoles it isn't any worse just it was consolfied.

If you are buying for the single player version, save your money.

For multiplayer, its a no brainer.

I have the PS3 version and since I am more into SP, I am deeply disappointed. I expected something like COD4, and I instead got a "COD4 ripoff".

For MP though, go with the 360 version.

I'm very angry now. I'm sorry but what's wrong with you? When did I even mention the PS3? The whole "6 frames per minute" comment was made by someone else on the other page, and I just said that '6 frames per minute' is basically a slide show. And then YOU think I said the Wii version has 6 fps for some reason.

none. save your money and preorder BF:BC2. trust me, i have every achievement for that game, put in over 3 days in MP for it, and never, ever felt the same rush as i did playing CoD4. it's just a bad, broken, imbalanced game. not worth it at all. the campaign is good though, and spec ops can be fun with a friend.

PC version probably plays the best, but if you had to get for a console your best bet is probably the 360 version.
