Cookyman Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 Where are these games £29.99?! Uncharted and such? I want this game but the price is ridiculous... Uncharted 2 - was £29.99 when I preordered it - it's now £32.95 Here GT5 - was £29.99 when I preordered it - it's now £32.95 here MAG - was £29.99 when I preordered it - it's now £32.95 Here
That Guy Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Thing is, I renewed my Xbox Live this week, played CoD4 online for the first time in months and am loving it again. Now, do I be a hypocrite and buy this after all the bullshit I said about the price, Or do I continue to deny myself a game I want for the sake of £5. I hate Activision.
dwarf Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 I usually make the hypocrite move and buy on impulse. When I bought Fallout 3 in GAME the day after release I was killing myself inside, but it felt good playing that bad-boy. The box smells nicer when you've just paid the RRP for it.
dazzybee Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Uncharted 2 - was £29.99 when I preordered it - it's now £32.95 Here GT5 - was £29.99 when I preordered it - it's now £32.95 here MAG - was £29.99 when I preordered it - it's now £32.95 Here Cheers Cooky, not interested in the other 2 but uncharted must be bought!! Better than any other next gen exclusive in my eyes PS When I say next-gen, I mean 360/PS3 PPS Does anyone else hate the term next-gen for current consoles. I change it to best HD exclusive game
Daft Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Uncharted looks to be heads and shoulders above every game. I knew it would be good but the reviews are beyond glowing. Normally I'm cautious but I've never seen a Kotaku review with so much approval.
Emasher Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 I hate it for another reason as well. Generation has to do with time, not console power.
dazzybee Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Yeah but time implies power...not that I want to defend it
Ryan Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 May aswell ask here: Does this game have offline 4 player split screen like World at War?
MATtheHAT Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Nothing has been confirmed yet, apart from split screen co-op. But to be honest, if MW1 had it, and W@W had it, I'm pretty sure MW2 will get it, as well as LAN.

Cube Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) Special Ops? Is that a Gears-like Hoard more or a Batman-like challenge mode* *Note: Yes, I do realise that both game types are nearly as old as gaming itself. Edit: Or could it be the name for multiplayer? Edit: Ah. 2-player co-op mini-missions. Edited October 2, 2009 by Cube
Hero-of-Time Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Nice list. Im glad to see they didnt put any competitive multiplayer achievements in there, hate those things.
LegoMan1031 Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 Nice list. Im glad to see they didnt put any competitive multiplayer achievements in there, hate those things. Yep! My thoughts exactly!
The fish Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 As awesome as the new trailer was, it gave away too much plot detail for my liking - I'm imposing a ban on myself of anything to do with MW2 (bar ordering it) until I have the disc in my hands.
Platty Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 Ok I bit the bullet and pre-ordered the hardened edition (£69.99) but used £10 worth of GAME points so got it for £60. I was gonna just go standard £45 but I'm always dragged in by special things and box sets etc... just couldn't bring myself to pay £100 for that figure one or get the night vision goggles. I'm happy, apart from I wants it now.. Just saw the new trailer. Washington all blown up nuclear style?!? WTF

Wasn't going to watch it because I had heard it had story elements in it and wanted to stay spoiler free but I might as well have done now
CoolFunkMan Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Oh for fuck sakes, here we go again... NOTE: 'Infamy' Trailer spoilers ahead! http://kotaku.com/5376158/christian-science-monitor-wrings-hands-over-modern-warfare-2s-dc Why can't people just get over the past and come to the realisation that it's just a game?
flameboy Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) As you all know by now, Infinity Ward is offering a pair of night vision goggles with the Prestige Edition of Modern Warfare 2 . As you also may know, British tabloid "journalists" love to insinuate that videogames and gamers are perverse tools of Satan, so it's no surprise that glorified comic book The Daily Star is claiming that the Prestige Edition goggles are for "pervy nights out." "GEEKY computer game fans are set to become an army of ogling pervs thanks to a giveaway of night edvision goggles with an edition of Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2," writes respected journalist Ciarah Hannah. "... Hordes of joy-pad junkies are rubbing their hands in anticipation and some have already admitted they will use the goggles for 'stealth dogging' and to spy on gay cruising spots." The Star writer then quotes a pair of gamers who posted obviously joking comments on various blogs and attempts to portray them as serious testimonials and evidence that all gamers are perverts. I think the most hilarious part of this story is that it's coming from The Daily Star, a scummy little rag that regularly prints pictures of naked women and even has a section on its site called "Babes" where anybody can look at a massive pair of breasts. The Daily Star also sponsors Television X, one of Britain's cable porn stations. So, for The Star to accuse anybody else of being an "ogling perv" is downright f*cking ridiculous, and just a little hypocritical. Still, they don't play videogames, so they're obviously far more mentally stable than we stealth-dogging gay cruisers. off http://www.destructoid.com/ Edited October 13, 2009 by flameboy
James Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 The funny thing is, the peoples who posted on the forums, stating what they would do with them, are clearly stating it tongue in cheek. Im surprised the Daily Mail didn't write this.
MATtheHAT Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Trophies/Achievements for the original Call of Duty coming to PSN, XBLA and of course with the Hardened/Prestige edition of MW2. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/call-of-duty/achievements/
MATtheHAT Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Third Person mode in MW2? http://kotaku.com/5389842/rumor-modern-warfare-2-features-third-person-shooting-mode
Solo Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Can't be real, having it 3rd person completely changes what kind of game this is. I reckon it's just a spectator cam of some sorts.
