[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

Having played over the weekend online for about 15 hours...I gotta say for my first FPS on a console I am getting the hang of the controls :D Going to pick up Killzone 2 at some point....can't believe I hadn't tried these games on my PS3 cause I thought "nothing can beat a mouse and keyboard"...

Must admit I'm liking the online play and have some great matches, even though I am rubbish and only a rank 16 just now :p

Pics like these make me laugh and remind me why I'm not buying this game (Squires is hosting).

IWNet is ****ing terrible outside of America by the sounds of it (as expected). Another Australian video review says that the game will pick a US host even if there's 1 US player and 8 other Aussies. :|

Its unfortunate, as no dedicated server and good bandwidth does cause trouble. But these things cost alot of money. I can see the only wahy of getting these is through a subscription.

But for me, I've not had that much trouble, I've had a few games be a bit laggy at the start.... *hugs his 50Mb with 1.5Mb upload*

I really enjoyed the snow mobile race in Spec Ops - Epic fun (Y)

Got a question here, yesterday me and a friend wanted to play some Hardcore TDM. As I'm the only one high enough rank to select Hardcore I had to be lobby "host". Each time I clicked the game-mode, any game-mode in fact, my game crashed with "iw4mp.exe". Now I just tried alone and got the same crash error! This hasn't happened before.

Anyone read about this particular issue, is this a local problem or a general problem with the game? It's really annoying =/ We tried like 8-9 times with me starting the lobby and it crashed every single time! He tried hosting once and game started fine, the game after I was able to find one match, then it started crashing again after that - Really weird.

Really? I though it was kinda lame and the only fun part was when going downhill really fast

Vehicle missions in COD just generally suck because the physics and steering is awful :p

Oh I agree about the steering...the steering of the snow mobile was atrocious but the speed and the adrenaline was cool

Man, I love how all of the perks are actually viable. In the first game, some of them were never even worth considering. In this one, they can all make a difference.

Got my first remote view for getting the winning kill :cool:

In that game I had a stupid kill where it triggered a billion messages...headshots, kills from hip, kills with steady head, kills with stopping power, payback, revenge, stopping a kill streak, recovering from a death streak...it distracted me so much I got melee'd :angry:

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
