Always.

Well, it's the main market of Call of Duty after all, I doubt they make enough money from the PC version to care about the players anymore

[Chyros]

They haven't since CoD 4. Arguably CoD 2. As I recall MW2 PC sales comprised only 9% of the total.

http://au.ps3.ign.co.../1211626p1.html - some guy paid $1725 for an early copy of the game.

Also, it looks they've managed to one-up the airport level from MW2 (read the article if you want to know).

What they don't do in technology, they do in controversy...

[Chyros]

I've already heard more of that than I wanted to, but tbh I like the controversy stuff. It should be in a game about war, IMO. War isn't a nice thing, and I think a war game should reflect that. And in any war, things a million times worse than anything IW or any other developer could come up with, happen on a daily basis anyway so anybody shocked by a game like this has to be very strictly anti-war.

i couldn't agree more. though i think that anybody shocked by this simply hasn't seen the other side of your typical marine gung-ho just yet. the side where innocent men, women and children die very real deaths at the hands of soldiers like the ones you usually play in games like these. what's more shocking to me is this very ignorance and the lack of nuance in many players of the genre. i'm not saying everyone should be super emphatic when it comes to war stuff but people could be a little more aware of what they're actually doing. if they don't, they might as well play "Call Of Duty: Modern Ethnic Cleansing" or the likes.

bizarre how one can start a train of thought when dealing with such a dumb game somehow it feels as if it's not worth it.

Indeed, actually there must be a lot worse controversial stuff. And after we complete the game a mandatory test must be made which will include following question : " Did you enjoy watching the controversial scenes ? " among many other questions so we can identifiy potential criminals of the future.

[SquigPie]

Meh, I can't see this as anything other than Activision attempting to milk the controversy for all it's worth. There's no message in this, just controversy for the sake of it.

[General]

And what is it with 70$ price anyway ? I think they are doing the approach of : " Eh, they are gonna buy it anyway ... "

You could say the same of BF's mud flinging, but no-one seems to mind that. At least the controversy gives some game elements that no game has.

Has anyone noticed that's there's always been some British guy in the games who sounds exactly like Gaz, even though Gaz died in CoD 4? I mean, what's up with that?

[Chyros]

IW are rather fond of Craig Fairbrass .

[Raven]

I was resisting until now and I crumbled :S. I pre-ordered 9 hours before the unlocking. I already have the steam iso copy i got from the "other" method. So looking forward to starting the campaign after work tomorrow.

[Soul]

If anyone gets that Free copy of MW1 with there pre-order on Steam and they have it already, can I have it ?

Or you could buy it yourself, it's around $10 these days.

[Libains]

I'll probably end up buying it sometime in the next few days, if you want that Cod4 copy you can have it Soul. You'll need to find me on Steam though.

[deltaepsilon]

I wonder if Wiz will end up getting it, even after those 'dicussions' on the IRC

AFAIK, the COD4 offer is only for pre-order. Now its gone.

I need some help guys.

I already have the steam ISO that I downloaded from "other means". I got the game legally and instead of downloading through steam(since it would take a long time to download) I would like to install is using the steam ISO. But I need to enter the steam key AFAIK. Is there anyway to view the steam keys of the installed games that are tied to my account?

Or!!

When I have steam running and start the installer, will it auto detect that I already have MW3 tied to my steam account and skip the prompt for the steam key?

I see what you did there

Honestly, I don't want this game. That said, unless I get some people I know to buy SM, I might have to in order that I can game with my mates again
