Many PC games are ports, many more of my friends have Xbox's, i don't need to worry about the game not working or my PC not good enough. |

I am definitely preordering BFBC2. It looks really good, i think it'll be a brilliant game. | The servers on XBL are only for the matchmaking system. Some games have dedicated servers thanks to the developers, but MW2 will be P2P on 360 just as CoD4 and 5 were. Basically the PC and console game are identical this time.... Which saves me $40 so I don't have to buy both copies and I'll just get it for my 360  |

Hopefully the CoD series will finally die. Don't get me wrong...they were great in their day, and I still played WaW, but man....how can they POSSIBLY make it any better?!

maybe dedicated servers will be back with the next one from treyarch since this one uses iw.net, and infinity ward seems like they don't like treyarch using their work. Right now, it seems like they have a lot of power in activision.

Doesn't seem like to big of a deal to me. Basically the same thing as consoles and console games are great. Nothing wrong with people using certain classes online they were put in the game and every perk/gun has a weakness and rather then just not allowing it to be used PC gamers will have to find a way to combat it.

After reading all of this there is zero chance I will buy MW2. They managed to completely butcher multiplayer which was the main reason I had been looking forward to the game.
I wonder how long it will take someone to released the MW2 multiplayer maps for COD4.

Next thing we know, there will be a crapload of DRM in that game too, don't even get me started. | |

What they are doing isn't good and will destroy the pc platform if it makes money.
Why?
It will destroy the community because other companies will want a part of the action and take dedi's off there games as well. Give us both how effing hard is that?
I see it stated that IW is weighing options. WRONG! They say that to the pubic... Sometimes. IW has stated they want to stray away from pc. They make it clear as **** they don't want to do the extra work. To the average gamer it isn't a big deal that there are no dedi's. For comp players it makes a huge difference. To the xbox gamer there isn't a big deal if there is no dedi's. Seems like you guys don't really understand what we are losing here. We spend great amounts on machines to perform the best in games. Now I might as well buy a 360. But even then I won't buy MW2. Because after this they are going to say most of there profits are console and they won't lose much by stopping pc production. But even then I will not give in to them ripping the soul of PC multi out of it. IW... FTL
