GameDaily: Modern Warfare 2: Don't buy it if...

GameDaily writes: "Right now, there are thousands of impatient gamers desperately waiting for the clock to strike midnight so they can flood stores to purchase Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Actually, you're probably one of them, and we can't blame you. Activision's supposed "biggest game of 2009" is one of the best and most intense first person shooters we've played, and there's a good possibility that Xbox Live will take a huge hit tomorrow, no thanks to the multiplayer overload."

1.4 - Those reasons...

... apply to EVERY game, not just MW2. None of them are related to actual flaws in the game.

MW2, as far as early reviews indicate, has no detrimental flaws. I'll enjoy my purchase.

1.5 - With all the hate Modern Warfare 2 is getting

you'd think it was PS3 exclusive. Picked mine up today and I will enjoy it for the next several months. Haters keep on hating. I'll keep on playing the games I enjoy.

1.6 - B-O-T-T-O-M L-I-N-E

This game will be enjoyed by a lot of people, and will also be shunned by many.

You can keep saying "It's a good game, im gonna play it, if you dont you're just missing out on a good game."

That may be true, in fact it IS true...it'll be a good game.

But there are a certain few people that stick to their PRINCIPLES and have moral INTEGRITY.

The people buying this game are mostly uninformed about the way the developers act, and others dont care.

I for one do not want to support a developing team who shlts on their fans.

All of you can buy the game at their ridiculous prices and enjoy it, it wont bother any of us that wont play it one bit.

We just choose NOT to support them because they've screwed us enough.

You can all turn the other cheek and buy the game, or pretend like they havent done anything...but the truth of the matter is...

When the Nazi regime was taking over, a lot of the world pretended it wasnt going on...

I dont want to buy the game and pretend they didnt do the things they did, I'd rather just not support their company and play all the other dozens of games with Developers that give a shlt about their respective demographics.

Enjoy MW2. No one's going to call you an asshole or a dipshlt for buying it...

Some people like I said, just CHOOSE not to support developers that are obviously ripping off the masses, and on top of that disrespecting a whole community of gamers.

Edit: Heil Hitler

nah, 1 out of 10 is the real deal for me.
What i want out of game? TO PLAY IT.
You know.. strange idea right?

Thank god Mw2 has host migration. Once I heard about it, I dropped all my hate for Cod4... and was like.. who cares if its P2P woot woot.

Games are meant to be played (now wat a strange idea).. and if you cant play them due to what ever the reason.. you have the right to b!tch...

1.9 - @1.7

sounds alot more legit reasons then what the reasons gamedaily pulled out of its a$$.

CoD4 was 'broken' for me once host connection error became so damn dominant.
Mw2 can replace it.. and it will take the only gripe that i had with itss prequel to the heart.
Host migration ftw.

@Trebius. "When the Nazi regime was taking over, a lot of the world pretended it wasnt going on..."

WOW did you really cite the Nazi takeover of Germany and use it in your argument against Activision/MW2????

I can't even explain how wrong that is, and how dumb you are. Unf*ckingbelieveable

Your Government is elected by the people. Your Government is a reflection of what your people want. Your people's wants are a reflection of who they are. Your country is made up of the people in it.

Ergo, you hate the U.S.

7 - Leave.

This article seems like a jab at those not buying the game for whatever reasons.

The Airport scene is set in Russia, but thats beside the point. The portrayal of a mass shooting is just plain unsettling, and unneeded. CIA agent or not, this mission revolves around the player shooting up a public transportation center. Something that will not set well with people right now.

I don't quite understand the "Despising America" reason, because a game is a game. Playing COD4 on the PC, I can say I've played with a lot of different races, and I'm sure even the most country hating person enjoys playing the most popular FPS game out right now.

"You're a PC gamer", ol' Buffa explains that while PC gamers are peaved, they shouldn't miss out on such a great experience.... Thats NOT the point, and its obvious this fool knows nothing about how the video game industry spins. With the recent announcement ID made regarding RAGE's server offerings, it's obvious other developers are stepping back this holiday season, to see what kind of things MW2 is bringing to the table... good ideas, and terrible ones.

"You hate the first Modern Warfare". This is the only one on the list that makes sense, but even then, Chrissy decides to bash those opting out. Why would they have trouble explaining themselves? I know a ton of people off the top of my head that don't play ANY first person shooters.

Chris Buffa, please leave the internet, and don't let the giant-ass double doors hit ya where the good lord split ya.

I wouldn’t mind playing the single player, but I’m not going to pay $60 for a campaign that is about 6 hours. Now, if I could play online I would buy it in a heart beat.
