Modern Warfare 2 has long earned the ire of PC gamers for its lack of dedicated servers, but Infinity Ward has now announced that it's taking away much more than control over hosting with the game in one long face-palm of a question and answer session. No servers, no console, no mods, no problem!
I think that this game is going down as epic fail. Nothing i have heard of late is good press for the game let alone mediocre. I have serious doubts this game is going to do well on the PC side and maybe not even on the console side as people just dont care to buy a game with all this negative hype...

I for one am going to tell people to save their money for another iteration of the game later. ]]> Game News Discussion nemowolf http://www.techimo.com/forum/game-news-discussion/239134-pc-modern-warfare-2-its-much-worse-than-you-thought.html <![CDATA[Killing innocents: a Marine's take on Modern Warfare 2 leak]]> http://www.techimo.com/forum/game-news-discussion/239035-killing-innocents-marines-take-modern-warfare-2-leak.html Wed, 04 Nov 2009 18:10:37 GMT From Ars Technica:

Dragon Age: Origins requires you to sign up for Bioware's new social site in order to grab the bonus content or downloadable missions some editions of the game came with, but that process proved to be fatally broken and overly complex for many gamers yesterday. Impulse buyers may not be able to play at all. Isn't PC gaming fun?

Walmart fires the first shot in the holiday retail wars, with Saturday deals better than many Black Friday bargains. The best part? A very game-friendly "sale" on the Xbox 360 Arcade. Time to stock up on systems.
