Picking it up in about 6 hours. Anyone else gonna be one?

My gamertag is obsydianX

Yes. Yes, my dear man. Or chick.

Your avatar confuses the hell out of me.

I didn't pre-order it or anything but I'm pretty sure I'll be picking it up eventually.

I always considered Mdselctr a boy, but lately I've had an idea that he's a girl... I wonder... maybe he's a genderless super being, and in being different than everyone else, he neglected to accept his own existance. And that's why he's an atheist. Because he is actually an angel, like myself, simply unaware of such things.

wtf is skurai rambling on about again

I actually have to say, that's quite badass.

No matter how retarded or off topic it actually was.

Oh..um... thanks. :D

Damn.

Too bad my Russian is russianty.

I know I haven't posted here in ages, but I'm bored and need a forum to browse lol. Anyways I have this on the 360 gamertag is madmarttigan. On the No Russian mission I mowed those russians down :).

If anyone wants to play online hit me up.

everyones fucking addicted right?

I'm almost regretting having got the game since I have been playing it in lieu of studying for tests. I think around finals if It's still that interesting I may have to have my GF take it away for a couple of weeks and hide it

Oh, hohoho. A game keeping you away from studies? I've had this happen before.
I wonder if I will make it to finals... It would be interesting to at least see my final intellect before I pass... hmm...

Game is out of control

Just rented it. Pretty damn good.

MW2's campaign >>>>>>>>>>>> Halo 3's campaign.
Halo 3 multiplayer > MW2 multiplayer.

I find the Halo series of games to be too slow overall. I much prefer the CoD games where you can die in a split second and the controls and handling are a lot tighter.

Seconded. Also, in Halo, the only reward for doing your best is a high score. In CoD, killstreaks are enough to at least watch your back.

COD multiplayer is better just because of weapon control, all you have to do is fight for position on maps. You don't have to worry about people controlling every good weapon on the map. You control your own weapons, so it evens the playing field. COD campaign puts the newer Halo campaigns to shame.

Are any of you guys on xbox live?

Meh, if you guys were as good at Halo as I am you'd think differently.

I was going to say this but you beat me to the punch line.

I like COD multiplayer, but i feel like there are too many variables (perks, etc) that give you an advantage / disadvantage against each and every player. In Halo, this is not the case. Everyone has the same shield and weapon at the start, which means you just have to get better (not expect some perk / weapon upgrade / etc. can save your lousy ass).

I will admit though, i stopped playing Halo all together because COD's campaign is out of control

I obviously like Halo, and definitely more than the COD series, but right now Halo is getting old. It's pretty much been the same formula since day one, which is approaching about 10 years ago. And starting with the same weapon all the time(the BR as it seems nowadays) gets old. Getting booted from games from accidentally running someone over gets old. Laggy games because the majority of players are young teenage kids that play on the slowest internet because that's all their parents will pay for gets old. And listening to the kids themselves with their high pitch voices and sad attempts a shit talking gets old(Although there are still stupid parents who bought their kids COD, the percentage is much much less(say 20% compared to Halo's 85%). So right now, while I do still like Halo, I'm just getting a breath of fresh air.

:EDIT:
Oh ya and the campaign of Modern Warfare 2 is garbage in my opinion. It does have so far what seems to be an intriguing storyline, but the gameplay is terrible. Most of the levels so far have been a small squad of 6 or so takes out a Brigade's worth of enemy soldiers in the most non-tactical way possible. The AI is horrendous to boot. Sure the enemies use cover somewhat..... but that's about the extent of it really.

This game might be the reason I go out and splurge on a 360, finally.

It's awesome, no doubt about it. I'm going to start logging some serious hours with that game.

Me and Jake play this all the time (Hurtloko, Petey and Ketchup play as well on occassion).

Everytime I see you on Live, you're still playing Halo 3!!!

I think MW2 promotes camping a little more, but i think they did a great job in making the game feel different. Adding in automatic weapons and shotguns as sidearms is amazing, and people running around duel wielding also changes things a lot. Overall I like the multiplayer, and my god thermal sniper is amazing.

How much of the campaign have you done?

Man those people you guys play with must have no life or job. I mean I don't usually insult people who play games since I just reached level 70 a few days ago and in my opinion I play way too much. There were actually people we were playing with that had prestiged twice and were about to do it a third time already. Even if you're amazing and earn loads of experience each match, you pretty much have to have been playing a great number of hours every day since release to already be that far along.

I think I'm gonna stay level 70 and enjoy all the weapons I've unlocked. Maybe I'll prestige later, but for now I don't want to be matched up with people like we played with about a week ago.

Smith, what is your Gamertag now then? I've been playing a decent amount but you're never under your old name. Friend me at Titusfied fool!

Titusfied or Titusfiedfool? :p

Mine's "ScribJellyDonut" I won't be playing at all until exactly 12:05 Dec. 17, the day when my last final is over. I actually had my GF take my copy of the game with her so I wouldn't play it lol

Shit, I had that on my Friend's List before! What, you take me off your list punk?!?!?! :mad:

I didn't take you off mine

I completed all of it. It was rather short and I would say it is not as good as the original in the campaign. The multiplayer pisses me off a lot more than the original, but it is still fun as hell.

my gamertag is madmarttigan if any of you bums want to bug me.
