Holy shit. At one point in the game you get blown out of an exploding space station. Amazing.

GTA sold 18 million on PS2
Halo 2 sold 8 million on Xbox/360
Halo 3 sold 11 million on 360
COD 4 sold 12 million on 360/PS3 combined

Really hard to compare GTA to the others because the PS2 has a much larger console install base.

I suppose the date isn't firm, but should I expect it on or near release day w/super saver shipping or should I bother upgrading to a faster shipping option? Or cancel and re-do the pre-order and hope the receive on release day option is available?
Those are almost never right for pre-orders. I preordered Dragon Age from them with free shipping and it said it wasn't shipping until the 7th and it came in the mail today.

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Wow. The single player game seems to be much longer, more varied, and more involved then the first one.

Sweet.

Can't say I'm too thrilled about having an outer space level.

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

I hope the snowmobiles are more than a cutscene, and I can't wait to see what post-credits mission they've come up with.

Not sure what difficulty level to start on. I did COD:MW on Normal, Hardened, and Veteran, and Veteran nearly killed me (esp. the airplane--still have flashbacks from that, "Weapons free..."). Also did WaW through on Veteran, so I may just start on Hardened...

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

I did the first game on easy but there was a level I just couldn't pass:

Spoiler:
My guy kept getting killed by a nuke.


Eventually I just gave up on finishing the campaign.

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Still not a single review online. Is it safe to assume that Activision now has a strict "no advance reviews" policy in effect?

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

There are snowmobile races in the coop mode. Also there is a $10 gift card with purchase at BB for reward zone members. I'll be getting mine there and using a gift card I have.

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

I've found that it's hard to win a snowmobile race if the other guy keeps calling in air strikes.

No, it's a legit copy from a legit store. They'll probably go under soon though.

Re: Activision announces Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Just changed my amazon order to release-date delivery. Hopefully that'll work. The previews are too cool, plus I have 11/11 (Veteran's Day--perfect) off, so 11/10 would be very nice.
