I did it instore, they just wrote it in a notepad, only 1 other person on the list :laugh:

It was a brand new store, so I don't think they really knew what they were doing. I might try another Asda later.

I just rung that Asda again, and they said they will just phone me when it comes in.

just rang, too late, last date to pre order was 3rd

I canceled, but I tucked that $65 away because I may change my mind next week. Guess I'll wait to see what the early impressions are.

I'm more concerned with how IW.net handles and performs on the PC. I'm fine with using a Steam group to game with friends, but I'm not fine with taking part in a $60 beta test of IW.Net. I'll let someone else handle that.

Good article here regarding the changes IW made & video response from 402.

Do you guys think this will be sold out everywhere on release day? I am just planning on buying it in town on the day it is released but I'm worrying that I won't be able to find it anywhere.

Probably the big places, malls etc

But if you can find a small shop somewhere

I wouldn't be worried as I am going for Midnight Launch. But just check around Target, Best Buy, Walmart should have them.

I would say it depends on the platform.

Xbox 360 might be tough to find, PS3 may not be as tough, and the shelves should be fully stocked with PC versions.

COD:MW2 for ?30 via Littlewoods

Register for an account, order COD:MW2 and use voucher code: ZQ266

No idea what their delivery times are like but it's worth a look for those who prefer to save money than get game first.>

They use either Royal Mail(Priority) or HDNL for delivery.

Is that the ?15 off first order code?

I won't be able to use it, as I already used it to buy 2100 MS points for ?7. Also if it goes through, they have been known to claim the money back in the future, due to fraudulent use of a voucher code(if it isn't your first order).

Someone just tweeted that there's no hardcore mode. That's not true right?

That's a lie, I watched a video stream of someone playing the leaked copy and 'Hardcore' is an option that's selectable in options. Also it's the name of a playlist or two.

:D

i really hope thats not true ..i love hardcore S&D and headquarters , it's the 2 game modes i play most

I believe that is the case on PS3, but 360 and PC will be missing hardcore for certain gametypes. I honestly can't remember and it's to tough to find the info again with all the other MW2 hate going on.

PC Gamers are SCREWED!

Poor PC gamers. First they hear the soul-crushing news that Modern Warfare 2 won't support dedicated servers, and now Infinity Ward has broken their hearts yet again. During a Best Buy online chat, the developer fired off a string of bad news, affirming a 9-vs-9 player limit, the inability to kick players from ranked matches and a lack of console commands. Ars Technica has laid out the full list of disappointments, if you've got the stomach for it.

We feel for those of you on the PC side, but largely because you haven't yet had your spirits broken like your console brethren. We don't even notice having our dreams shattered any more (in fact, truth be told, we think we're starting to like it).

    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market

      By wrack · Posted

      This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!
    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers

      This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.

      illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
