i will be one of those newbies
losing online multiplayer base a little soon eh? serves you right.
I don't think so Activision, you can keep your game.
Screw Activision, this isn't worth playing even for free. I won't dignify their attempt to ruin PC gaming.
Alright, we get it you hate Activision.. now could you please stop whining about it.. have had about enough of this whining and moaning... geez
Yes Activision was stupid, but that doesn't mean u spam every post of this amazing game with ur hateful and sorrowful whiny complaints.

What's amazing about a gimped down console port? As far as I am aware there is still a system of free speech, and if people want to continue complaining about the actions of a company they have supported over the years, then they are free to do so
Alright we get it, you're a Activision/console fanboi, could you please stop with your sorrowful. please shaft me more activision comments, really it's not like they even used lube, but hey maybe you like it that way
Great, now there's going to be a massive jump in the number of hackers, not that we were short of them.
Run into about 10 confirmed ones in the last two days...

Forget the console port... the game itself is pretty amazing.. it's not like it doesn't adapt well to ur graphic card or such annoying and more common console port problems. It's the stupid dedicated servers stuff.. big whoop.. yes it's not ideal and quite stupid of Activision to do so, but that doesn't mean u degrade the game itself. The game, no matter how much u deny is still one of the most revolutionary fps games of all time.. ignoring all the retarded tactics Activision has adapted ie overpriced DLC, no dedicated servers etc, it's actually a pretty good game.
Using ur logic, Apple fanbois can post w/e they want about their crappy overhyped Apple products cuz of "free speech", but isn't it annoying after a while ? Exactly.. that's my point... doesn't take too much to understand. Oh and FYI, I play on consoles and PCs but predominatly on consoles cuz of the fewer problems they have and cuz most of my friends play on there too , however that still doesn't make me a fanboi of Activision lmao.
Its free to play online MP every weekend
lol sorry for PS3 owners it is anyways.

God you guys are so immature at times.. as soon as you read something that's clashes with ur views.. u rate it a negative... geez what are we 12 ?
Modern Warfare 2 is by far the biggest dissapointment in my memory of computergames. Lousy and linear singleplayer story which I completed in 4½ hours. Multiplayer so locked down and dominated by lousy P2P-connections where exploiters, haxxors and 13-yearolds roam freely. I'd rather smear honey on my privates and roll around in fireants, than spend anymore time on that sorry excuse of a game. COD4+5 ftw!
