yes and the pc version is just a poor port to which they are too lazy to even add lean >.<

Why don't they ad support to both auto-matchmaking and dedicated servers. So that they'll still provide that "smooth online experience" they keep talking about and can help their game through the times by enabling people to run their own servers if they'd want to.
Or am I overlooking something here?

Yeah and that nuke is just stupid. It also means you can have one "einselganger" to win for the entire team. And if the answer of the dev's would be "it's impossible to have 25 kills" .... Why wouldn't you even bother putting it in and leaving it as an option for hackers, it's not like players need any extra motivation to kill other players. It just doens't feel like an usefull game-addition.

Like, I'm seriously thinking of never buying another Activision published game. Ever.

I'm so canceling my preorder tomorrow and preordering Battlefield Bad Company 2.
Wow, this is crazy. I don't think they're big enough to suck up their pride and admit that this is going to affect their sales.

[EDIT]
Apparently the single player campaign is only going to have about 5 hours of gameplay.

STORY SPOILERS. READ AT OWN RISK!
Hidden/Spoiler:
[quote="http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Price_(Modern_Warfare)"] Spoilers follow.Between the events of Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2, Price has been apparently incarcerated in a gulag in Russia, only to be rescued by Task Force 141 and MacTavish. Initially, Price attempts to kill Gary "Roach" Sanderson, but after recognising MacTavish, he relents and joins the unit. During this exchange, MacTavish returns the M1911 .45 used to kill Zakhaev in the original Modern Warfare.

After the escape from the gulag, Price reprises his role as a Captain, and is present in Task Force 141's mission briefings. He joins the force on a later mission to destroy a submarine. His signature weapon appears to have changed from the M4A1 Carbine to the MK 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle.

CAPTAIN PRICE IS BACK :runaway: I swear he died in cod4. the guy gave up on him. didnt he?

That's where I draw the line. I thought they learned that lesson from CoD4: make the campaign a decent amount of time. :x

That also bugs me, but I'm not going to cancel my preorder just for stuff like this.

so my friend's friend managed to get an early copy of this for the xbox (he has connections with underground stores, not the black market or anything, just knows people) and my friend didn't believe it, so his friend sent him a picture of the game box. it's possible i might get to go play this with him later.

When held, the shield protects the player from weapons fire from the front, but will become riddled with bullet impacts and make visibility very difficult. The shields will never break and cannot be shot through by any guns, but they do not protect the user from explosive damage. Also, flashbangs make the player lower their shield.

This game... is fantastic, its just incredible. The story is fantastic so far and I am not even half way through the campaign. Multiplayer is the same as CoD 4 with slight differences (new weapons, perks etc) so that is great as well. I have yet to try Special Ops. This game is a must buy, my quick review is so I can go play some more :D
