Yup. Totally f**ks up my budget for a month. And i don't even play multiplayer.

More hype, more hike.

Bobby Kotick: "Our fans keep bending over, taking it, and coming back for more, so this is just a logical extension of that Activision-customer abuse cycle."

The reviewers were sitting in Bobby Kotick's godi to play this or what.

Graphics are so ugly and sub-HD, the snowfield looks like taken from the Project IGI. No wonder IW was going ga-ga over UC2, they must have felt gutted after seeing those gorgeous outdoors.

And top of all this, after having played a few missions, there's nothing, I experienced which can be called epic.

 

This game is like KJO-SRK-AACHO movie, which will be crap but still make billions and get great reviews. :devil:

If this game had cost the usual 2499 would console owners still have hated it as much?

 

You pay more, you expect more. And rightly so. Is there anything wrong with wanting more out of your Rupee as a consumer?

 

Would the average, short campaign have been an easier pill to swallow a 2500? Probably.

 

But if Actimoney are jacking up the price they better have an amazing (and I mean REALLY AMAZING) game to back that up with. They dont. And I dont see whats wrong with calling them out on that.

What's wrong with KJO-SRK movies? They are entertainment. And they sell. Same here - IW cashed in on the money train. They are charging crazy money and they promised the earth. It's called advertising. No one forced people to buy the game. But people still are.

 

Bottom line - we might try to be pretentious and say that we want Damien Hirst or Tracy Emin but we are usually happy with Playboy. MW2 is the equivalent of Playboy - it sells. Whereas there are games like Grim Fandango and Psychonauts and the more recent The World Ends with You which only a handful of people will buy and appreciate.

 

So yes - you paid a more money for it. Yes - you feel disappointed that you didn't get Megan Fox stripping in front of you while you played MW2 as you expected for that price. There was always a choice that you couldn't have bought the game. But please stop whining that it's the worst game since Transformers 2. You exercised an option and it turned out to be less than optimal. That's life and unlike video games there is no pause button.

 

All I hear on this thread is that MW2 sucked. I refuse to believe that as a standalone game it sucked. Of the few reasonable posts I've read (and Sam's post is one of them) I gathered that it's a well made, well executed game and basically Modern Warfare gameplay with bells and whistles added. I cannot see anything wrong with that. Graphics does not make a game. Halo 3 has sh*t graphics but it still rules MP because of the experience. Whether a shadow falls askance is not something I want to care about in an action game.

 

PC players have a legit reason to complain about having no dedicated servers. It nerfed their gameplay experience big time. Console owners shouldn't crib. And people who are pirating this game and cribbing should just f**king die anyway - you qualify for a Darwin award.

 

Now excuse while I go play a game which looks like it was made 10 years ago and still is brilliant. (Dragon Age)

So basically Activision played on the greed of consumers. Yes - that makes them shrewd businessmen and possibly the next time they come out with COD7 the sales will be less than stellar.

But fact is that people could have waited for reviews / gameplay vids and all the other resources on the net / even for the price to come down before buying. I know I am waiting. I guess even you are - which is a sensible decision. I know the wait sucks and I am not ever going to trust Activision when they promise the earth but that's the choice I am exercising as a consumer - not buying and not paying a ridiculous price for it.

yeah, the game doesn't look worse than cod4 and it doesn't look last gen... that's exaggerating too much... the campaign is good and has it's moments and it looks better than cod4.. The only thing is, it's short. The MP feels just as good as cod4 and looks much better with a few added features here and there...

This. I'm stunned at the kind of bile some people are spouting here.

I'm pissed about the MP part I just can't connect. Its stuck at the "Connecting to Matchmaking server" part. Come on I paid a lot for this game is it too much to expect it to work? The single player was good, but the main reason why I picked this up was for the MP. COD4 MP and PSN connect just fine so I know its not my connection.
