Damnit I hate care packages. Their a total game changer I swear. Everytime an enemy was able to get one, a freakin helicopter comes and destroys the entire team and totally flips the game around.

Are there really vehicles in the multiplayer maps?
Which weapons do you start off with in mp? Which are your favorite weapons so far?

<--Bored at work and antsy to pick up a copy as soon as shift is through.

I played it for 2 hours, only 2 maps repeated, and I know of at least one more map I didn't get to play (the Brazil one). Anyway, I gotta get some sleep... I just remember I have to go to the court house tomorrow and pay for a speeding ticket

Im planning to buy this game but for my PC. My PC specs are:

AMD Athlon 3500XP
2GB Corsair XMS Extreme
XFX 7800GT 256MB
550Watt OCZ Power Supply
Creative SB Audigy ZS

I use to play Battlefield 2 with this PC and ran it all at "ultra high" settings with no problem. Will my PC be able to run Modern Warfare 2 without any hiccup? Or am I just better buying it for XBOX 360?

All I can say right now is: the multi-player certainly looks and feels different.

Heres a website that can tell you what you should run it on.

http://cyri.systemrequirementslab.com/srtest/

But from what Ive heard, the PC version is the excact same as the console version. So IMO I would get the xbox version so you could play with other people, but if thats not a big deal for you then I guess its just personal preference.

here you go *spoiler*
Your playing as an amarican undercover agent in the russian terror group. When the level starts they say to not talk in russian, and you find out why at the end. You go into an airport to and pretty much light up the whole place. At the end of the level the terroists kill you. You find out that they know you were american and leave the body. The reason they do it is to blame the innicident on the americans in an effort to get russia to go to war with the US, and this is why they didnt want to speak in russian

Yea I know what you mean, but I think its actually interesting to put it in the game. Kind of plays on peoples emotions. They also put in an option to skip the level tho.

Quick question about multiplayer
I always like when games like Halo and COD 3 have online multiplayer with more then one person. What i mean is if you had another person are on the same xbox, you can both play online. Just wondering if thats in MW2.

If you go to the Reader Reviews on IGN for MW2's PC version, looks like the rating is 1.3/10.

Edit // went up to 2.3, shucks.

I've been playing since 1am till 1pm with a hour nap. now going to class lol. I mostly hate the maps that promote way too much camping. Favela is meh. I think the care packages really take away the fun since you can call on a helicopter or harrier like every min.

if your good you can call in air strikes too

they dont bother me.. if you watch your radar you can take cover in time..

just adds a little more tactical play to me...

and campers will always be there... without places to hide we'd all be shooting each other in a open field... just good to know you can get them out of their fox holes after they kill you b/c of the kill cam...

overall great game so far... hope no cheating commences.

You might want to check Costco if there's one near you. Or even Target/Walmart.

those last 2 places are the BEST for non-line buying.

target is usually Win... they even order limited editions of games and they tend to sit on the shelves for weeks b/c nobody goes to look there...

Cool, I'm TommySalami on PC, you can add me if you get it.

also, has anyone played single player yet? Having war come to America and fighting in my home town just left me speechless. It really brings out the emotions to see what war could be like on our own soil, because we're so used to seeing war everywhere else.

Does it look like the NVGs could be used while wearing glasses?
