Good old Mr Vaz, trying to hold the moral high ground

Tactically, holding the high ground is often a good idea ......

the game's violent content has been condemned by Labour MP Keith Vaz, who states that "'it contains such scenes of brutality that even the manufacturers have put in warnings within the game telling people how they can skip particular scenes."

It's too early to know the extent of how inferior MW2 is to older CODs/other FPSs until enough people have installed it and are trying to play online. Hopefully it's not as bad as people fear, despite the lack of dedicated server support/maximum of 9vs9 etc. Hopefully those of us with copies should be able to give an honest verdict later in the week.

Oooooh - Ninja edit !

Issues are mainly related to there being no dedicated servers.

I'd be very interested in hearing an proper objective review from a PC gamer.

MW2 - GOTY!

I am pissed that I pre-ordered from coolshop for £38 , thinking retail price would be £55. Now, that I see that retail price is about £26, I am tearing my hair apart!

I'll never pre-order ever again.

I will do my best later in the week having had a chance to play it properly. I've played COD4 and W@W online a lot so those will be the natural comparators, but I'll also try and compare it to my online experiences of L4D, TF2, CS:S, FarCry2 and Battlefield 2 and 2142.

great start IW, even if the DC's and drm weren't an issue, they still screwed up the steam install
