Especially as the army is using the last one in their recrutation funparks as far as i heard.
I guess I really don't care about MW2. That is pretty sad, though. Who was it that was actually signing the autographs?
I go to a place called 1997 thats at the bottom of wardour st. been going there 10-11 years now I know all the guys that work there its like home away from home.
I thought the MW2 display was kinda funny, how big games have become it was like a film premiere.. have no idea who the IW guy was
But I am beginning to lose respect for Infinity Ward for this sort of "sell-out" publicity, on a game that isn't really reinventing any wheels.
As for respect for IW goes, every company is out there to make money respect or not isnt the issue.
Quality of product is a completely different issue, and this is my concern, this game has MP issues yes, but if they fuck up the single player I will go to thier homes and kill thier first born sons ...

EDIT: I managed to find some info on MW3, sounds pretty life like, why are we talking about old games?
Props to the clerk, who calmly responded that they couldn't serve him without identification. I swear, he looked like he was about to cry when he stormed out of the store. The whole scene was probably more entertaining than all the movies we rented will be.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
I....
I don't use a cellphone.
There. I said it. But damn, if that wouldn't have made an awesome YouTube video.
*substitute with real swear words.
I've been working in a restaurant there for over ten months. Glad I left that job - I wanted to kill myself every time there was some kind of event going on. Dozens of people who suddenly realise they want to eat something = BAD day at work.
Glad I left that job a while ago, otherwise I would have another reason to feel negative towards Infinity Ward.
Still, their stardom is quite funny considering COD is just a generic shooter at heart, albeit solid. Makes me wonder, why I don't see people like Fumito Ueda doing this kind of thing, when they clearly deserve it (or at least more than IW does
I don't really like to act like snob who hates popular things, but events like this make me ponder if the industry is really moving in the right direction.
You sir are a freak !
Guilty as charged. To be honest, there's only been, like, three or four times in the last two years or so that I've thought that having one would be truly, genuinely useful. Don't get me wrong - I had one in the past (a Motorola Razr, back when they were cool), but when it died, it was strangely liberating and I haven't bothered to replace it. Even if it still worked, it wouldn't have mattered - the video recording on it was so poor, it was like watching pixelated bacteria form in a petri dish.
Plus, I absolutely hate having conversations on cellphones in public, almost as much as I hate those assholes who have to yell their whole fucking conversation when they're on the train. Owning a cellphone makes me feel like that asshole.
