On the same thread tho, anyone play COD: World At War, or Cod4 Modern Warfare? I'd enjoy playing against some of you. Got my copy yesterday evening. Since it was a 'school night' I wasn't able to play for very long, but so far I'm really impressed. They've improved the graphics, which I'd hardly have thought possible on the current hardware - there are an incredible number of characters on screen at once. The controversial airport level early in the campaign was an odd experience - it was kind of uncomfortable, and I found myself deliberately aiming wide of the civilians (although I did end up having to brutally murder a lot of policemen!) It's interesting that people are suggesting it's immoral to take part in a fantasy terrorist action, but ok to spend hours blowing away hundreds of fantasy 'bad guys'. The only things I'm not sure about so far are: - The voice acting, which I don't think has been up to par with COD4. - The feel of the multiplayer mode, which seems more 'arcadey' than previous versions. - The more futuristic stuff, like heartbeat monitors on the weapons. Although I don't expect a fully realistic experience, I hope things don't get too sci-fi. I had a very quick go on Xbox Live and had no problems quickly getting into a game. I do also play quite a lot of COD4 and World at War online, but Xbox only. I do agree with the consensus that Infinity Ward are the better developer though. There's just something classier about the ones that they've produced. World at War looked great, but I thought the enemy AI was iffy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote2) More difficult to program for, given the varying specs of machines. Somewhat true, but they already coded the game for PC. Wouldn't be that hard to allow dedicated servers. Quote3) The most demanding customer base (wanting modding ability, dedicated servers, cheap or free additional content etc). Again, they already coded the game for PC. Just pull a Bad Company and leave it off PC altogether if we're so unimportant. Quote4) the most likely / able to pirate the game. And ironically, having dedicated authenticated servers gives PC gamers MORE of a reason to actually pay for the game. So this argument point doesn't even work. Serious FPS gamers are serious PC gamers. CAL, TWL, CEVO, mean nothing to a console gamer. Screwing over those competitors is not a great business move. Those events cannot happen without dedicated servers. It would be like shutting down the PST because only 1% of skydivers actually participate in it. Swooping is one of the coolest things our sport has to show both new participants and whuffos, etc (and also one with the most dangers, which doesn't really play into the comparison). PD would not be PD without their swoop team and events like the PST.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I can't really argue with their business model, but that's not what we're talking about. Making money is mutually exclusive from making a good game (or film or any other piece of art).
