Really cant wait for this game... CoD4 was the first game that got me hooked to playing my 360... no other game would get me to "reset" all my MP perks/guns/attachments multiple times to reach the next level of prestige...

@Browno - Can you add US prices as well?...

Standard Edition: $59.99 - PC $59.99

Hardened Edition: $79.99

Prestige Edition: $149.99

Done :)

Good work Browno. Although the general rule we came up with is official topics are best left closer to launch, otherwise we end up with 100+ pages before the game is even released.

I suppose this will make it easier to keep everything in one place though as it's going to be popular.

Yup this is far too early, the topic will end up with pages of general chat before the game even comes out.

1~2 weeks before launch is usually best.

(no offence Browno, it's just the way it tends to work best...)

yeah that sucks about the map packs....... I am REALLY having a hard time deciding if I want to purchase this for the PC or the Xbox...

BTW thats funny on the box art.. They are taking the COD out of everything to do with the game, yet they are leaving it on the box art in small print, JUST so some people know its still Call of Duty.

No map packs for pc? F***** :/

Im annoyed that they already have two map packs planned.... I still feel like CoD:MW should have had more then 1 map pack.. its still in the top 3 games on live yet the support for it dropped off the face of the planet after the first map pack..

joystick for aiming FTL, I'd rather play a few maps with a mouse than play alot with a joystick

Oh I agree 100%, but more developers are pushing away from PC gaming and focusing their attention on consoles, due to piracy, cheating, etc.. ?So I know we probably don't have to much longer to go on PC gaming, unless we are playing Universe of Blizzard or something..?

Thats why we have to buy the pc versions more, to show the devs that we still care about the pc and not just for the console

No it wasn't. They removed it and Modern Warfare was going to be a spin off, as this is the first true sequel in the CoD series.

Then it was later added back.

Actually here's the full story: (yes it's wiki but it's true)

Modern Warfare 2 was originally referred to under the working title Call of Duty 6.[4] The game was originally announced under the title Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 by Activision on December 3, 2008.[10] Activision subsequently retracted their announcement, stating that any information about an upcoming Call of Duty game was "speculative";[11] a notion shared by Infinity Ward who also asserted that they had not officially confirmed their latest project.[12] On February 11, 2009, Activision officially announced Modern Warfare 2 and set a tentative release date for "Holiday 2009."[2]

And it was added again last month with the first showing of the art work and limited editons.

Any word on if they have improved the online experience? With COD4 MW you can't track your friends online, can easily find servers and add them to your favorites, Lots of servers don't even get listed on the server list, etc.

I wish they'd hook up with Steam that would make it much more enjoyable.

Pre-ordered for about ?36.Isn't the Argos 20% deal still running?> Tesco Direct have 20% off too, but it's out of stock for now.

Didn't you have to pay now for the Argos pre-order? I'm not a big fan of paying upfront when it comes to pre-orders.://

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
