The only issue with MW2 that I've had is that I can't stand certain maps (Estate and Quarry in particular )they seem to have it set up in such a way that you can only win if you play a certain style. I have seen some glitches but nothing too horrendous. It seems the system automatically kicks people who try to manipulate the network. I started shooting a guy the other day and he was frozen for 2 seconds appeared behind me squeezed off a shot and then disconnected. I got hurt but didn't die. I assume he actually tried using a lag switch and it backfired. Hope he's banned. Could have been just a bad connection though.

The best thing I ever did was turn on my privacy settings (for 360). Gaming is so much more enjoyable now.I love the COD franschise but when MW1 came out I began to see a lot of bad Halo players make the migration over to what is obviously a superior game. For a long time I stopped playing COD beause of that and then I thought, "gee why should I miss out on a cool game that I paid for?" so I immediately blocked all communications and left them open to friends only and then I used my biospace as a message to all the POSs on XBL saying that they're lifeless morons and not to waste their time sending a message.I also don't accept random friend requests. That's the best you can do. I play MW2 religiously and have never had a bad social experience yet.

I also have a PS3 and must add for the record that while PSN players are aLOT more sophisticated the infrastructure is plagued with an assortment of con artists, chain mailers, and wierdos (trolls- bizarre luciferian black candle trolls). Sorry, fanboys PSN isn't perfect either.And I haven't had it working for awhile so not sure if they have a unfied mute system yet or not.
