Modern Warfare 2 Care Package Glitch Fix Coming on Xbox 360
Those who tend to play a lot of Modern Warfare 2 have undoubtedly come across someone using the infuriating care package glitch… at least if you’re on the 360 where the problem has still not been corrected despite PC and PS3 users already having non-cheating fun. Thankfully, the patch is not too far away, as confirmed [...]

Saturday, February 6, 2010
Maybe that headline is not completely appropriate. In prior Call of Duty titles, including the original Modern Warfare and World at War specifically, I was a decent player. My kill-to-death ratio was around 1.25, certainly not great, but tolerable for my own run-and-gun style of play. Modern Warfare 2 however, is different. Currently, with three days [...]

Saturday, December 5, 2009
Japanese gamers looking to enlist in the latest crusade of Soap and Ghost in Activision’s Modern Warfare 2 are slightly miffed at publisher Square/Enix. In particular, the No Russian mission, the controversial level which has the player shooting civilians at an airport, cannot be skipped. Not only that, the player cannot fire a shot, as [...]

Monday, November 23, 2009
Over on Amazon, potential Game of the Year candidate Modern Warfare 2 holds a whopping 1.5 rating from the user reviews. Why? The games lack of dedicated servers, which many felt defeats the openess of PC gaming. We won’t argue with that, as it is a valid point. However, despite throes of people crying foul and [...]

Monday, November 23, 2009
It is in the nature of business to try and find new ways to increase profit, and open new lines of revenue. I believe most people know this. However, shouldn’t it also be in the interest of companies to not alienate consumers? Not try to price gouge them at every chance they get? I ask these [...]

Having a bad day? Ready to laugh at the expense of other people? We have you covered.

A separate player match playlist inside Modern Warfare 2 is going to switch things up however. The unspecified private (that’s important) multiplayer mode will take place in a third-person view. You [...]

Monday, October 19, 2009
Want to know why many people prefer the PC version of many popular games these days? Dedicated servers, hosted by the true geeks among us. Kudos to them, spending the money to host games, allow for user generated content, custom game modes, and more. It is likely the reason Valve shooters seem to dominate the [...]

Friday, October 16, 2009
Let this stand as one of the few cases where a developer eliminating cooperative play from a game can be seen as a positive. Infinity Ward’s Rob Bowling stated that adding co-op play to Modern Warfare 2 would cause problems within the story.
