Yet another fail on Gasheads fault. Just shut up already.

RFK – Im sorry if Dumbass was a bit harsh but those were the words that naturally came out of my mouth when thinking of what someone must be to make something like this. Honestly you read a forum and see us go at a small conversation and your brightest idea is to make a thread about it and continue it here? The whole general idea is to stop it in the first place.

no it wasn't, just shut up. it's better to continue this thread & not derail other ones, so shut up

modern warfare fanboys are way more annoying than  uncharted 2 fanboys

I have a friend and all he plays is MW2, and all he does is bitch and moan and yell when he dies. its not often i see people smile while playing it online lol

I'm smiling when i hear people yelling when they die.  But, I've recently been playing MAG lately as I find it more enjoyable than MW2

i'll go through it evenly in my opinion/experience

Single Player

Graphics

Well Uncharted 2 was bound to win this one, beautiful effects, water lush trees etc, MW2 has detailed guns, which is good for an FPS, but U2 (or the original) is the game you put on your big tv to impress visitors/family

Story

Once again U2 takes the cake here, having a lead character everyone loves is vital, Mw2's lead character is still a mute!, also FPS are always restricted stories, MW2's was above average on an FPS story, but U2's story was a much more memorable experience, more movie like than MW2.

Online

Playabilty

U2 was great fun, if you knew what you were doing and the controls were etc, so providing you'd done more than one level online you were ok then, as with every game, it's pretty straight forward

        Mw2 was extremely easy to get into, and requires barely one brain cell to play (as you can see from the packed servers), but as much fun as it can be at the start new players will find themselves getting mauled to death from all directions as soon as they spawn, this didnt happen as badly on U2

Longetivity

MW2 has the most to come back for me! afterall my play time says that, i prefer the online to MW2 in general over U2, other than one or two things (that'll be later), you can prestige and get a new badge (exciting isn't it? without being sarcastic, it is a very simple idea, but effective), get gun unlocks (class systems i prefer to gun pick ups like U2 always!). On U2 you've a few things worth levelling up for, like the `pumping` taunt, but i never got interested that much, thus didn't play it that much so i don't know what else is there!

Servers

MW2 servers are pretty, no absolutely crap, i swear my 10 days playtime is more 4 days playtime, 6 days migrating host, timing out, joining ast 30 seconds of a match etc, once you get a reliable lobby, it is then fun! also invite system now works reliably compared to WaW

     U2 takes a long time to find a server and start a match, but once your in, your in, with very little lag, lag can be an issue on MW2, but i barely notice it now as i've resorted to what everyone else seems to do unfortunately, either spas 12, or noob tube!

Fairness of guns

U2 everyone has the same guns, and picks up the rest from the floor, but the high power guns, like the desert eagle (i think it was that one), which can be 1-2 hit kill, has low ammo, same as the grenade launcher, which evens it out.

    MW2, though not so, i encounter, overpowered explosives, killstreaks, knifes, shotguns, dead accurate assault rifle and sub machine guns, campers etc daily, i won't bore you with too much detail

So for me, if had no router id pick U2, but i do have a router so i'd pick MW2, as it offers cheap thrills when things go right, frustrating big time, sometimes, maybe mostimes, but i've had more thrills on it compared to U2 (well that U2 machinima match in the white room is quite a laugh though!)

what i love about you kog is that you can call mw2 all the names under the sun yet still play it more than most people i know. well, you defo have one of the largest game times. weird, eh?

no, i stated it can be quite fun, and sometimes really good! but the game has too many flaws that i cant ignore just because i like the game, it could be X's better, and if you don't want to admit it fair enough, if your just brewing for an argument, (which i normally assume one word questions are, and the way i read it suggests so,) then kindly dont bother,  besides MW2 is a good time filler when your not sure what to play/fancy burning 30 minutes with one match. however according to my leaderboard i have average game time with slightly above average score, most of my friends are at 15+ hours, weird, eh?

I originally loved playing MW2, but after a while shooting people over and over again does get boring sometimes. MW2 does have waaay to many problems and issues (I'm sure everyone knows what they are), and there are more bad sides to the game than good sides. IW really could have done a much better game if they/activision weren't so greedy and didn't just chuck it on the market with flaws. I think if CodWaW didn't have juggernewb or the MP40, it would be a much better game.

That's my opinion anyways.

lol wow 15+ hours is a lot, probs not as much as like 10 days or whatever you have i bet, well only like 3 people had a longer game time than you last time, weird, eh?

i didnt want an argument i was just questioning why you would play a game so much when you say the servers are shit, the weapons are uneven and it is frustrating big time.

i agree tho it has got many flaws and that if there wasnt any it would be a much much better game. lets hope COD:BO hasnt got as many.

i did assume that people would pick up that it was a typo on my behalf, im pretty sure it's obvious though.

And yes lets hope that BO is to MW2 what W@W should have been to CoD4, which is a similar game but with major issues highlighted (ie W@W kept the juggernaut perk despite its controversy) and fixed, if it, then i see no reason why it shouldn't be a good game (other than servers)
