    Stupid INFINTITY SUCKIVISION

    Dieeee!! Its all those consoles faults!



    in a move that'll probably summon the 4 horsemen of the pc gaming apocalypse, infinity ward has decided to delay the pc version on modern warfare 2. The revised release date is now the 24th of november.

    No official reason has been given for the delay yet, so it could be to do with anything from last minute bug fixes, production issues or even to counter piracy. Expect to hear soon enough though, so keep your eyes on tgn for the latest news.

    Update:

    Whilst trying to track down the original source of the rumour, it seems that a games release schedule from activision is to blame. This document is a road map of their upcoming software releases and on the latest one, mw2 for pc is listed as being 24/10/2009.
    die die die die die die die console!

    Well, at least it takes some of the pressure off getting my new i5/i7 build completed...

    But I agree, consoles aren't worth a damn for FPS games...although CoD4 looked awesome on my buddy's 52".

    Try playing this on the console for a week, then go back to PC. It will really make you appreciate mouse/KB.

    I don't understand how delaying the release "counters piracy", could someone please explain that one to me? It's not like the delay is being caused by some new super-secret drm that is uncrackable.

    I guess the idea is that a pirated PC version will be available basically on day 1 and this will hurt console sales out of the gate. By waiting 2 weeks to release it, some folks that would otherwise obtain a PC copy illegally will actually buy the console version rather than wait. At least that's what I read somewhere.

    Another step towards the console and away from PC...

    I wish we could play against consoles online. The superiority of the mouse/keyboard would be instantly apparent.

    Didn't they do that for the Orange Box from Valve. But yes I think PC would win but there are some very talented console players.

    I think they are probably the same and it just boils down to where you learned. We like PC because we all learned on it and focus on it. Console people wont do as well on PC and visa versa. But I bet if they went head to head it would be closer then we expect.

    yea, actually cap i started when i was younger on a console, nintendo 64 ftw!, and grew up on it up till about a year ago. I used to be amazing with the console now i suck. Pretty much what im getting at is that it depends on how much you play with either the console and pc.
