Anyone buying it? I've heard that Sainsbury's may be selling it for £24 on the release day which is Tuesday 9th November. Can anyone confirm it or know about it? COD:Modern Warfare 2 was like that when it was released. Hopefully its the same.

Played a beta of it a while ago, it was quite early but it was OK. it will sell by the bucket load. Don't know about sainsburys, but worth keeping an eye on it!

I've not pre-ordered it, but might pop in to Morrisons on the morning of the release to see if they sell it for £25 like they did with the last one.

no-where's released their prices yet - all waiting until monday.
That said, latest rumours from "inside" sources seem to indicate that sainsbury's will have it for £28 if you spend £30 in-store. Other supermarkets are doing similar apparently. No MW2-style price cuts!

Blimey I only bought mw2 for £28 two weeks ago!
I hope they've sorted the knifing out. Numpties sprinting around and teleporting to one hit kill you with a knife doesn't have any place in a shooter imo.

EA weren't happy the last time with COD MW2 mega reductions so don't expect them again, I got it on pre-order on Friday for £29.99 was dispatched on Friday too.

I paid less than that on release day from Sainsburys.

Yea the first one if your lucky enough not to be playing with lag, but what about the second or third one...I've taken to noobtubing as the only effective counter. Bit cheap but it works.

how do you teleport in mw2?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Indeed theres teleporting?
I thought i was just rubbish.....

Commando pro and tactical knife ftw.

'teleporting' is a bit tongue in cheek, think it's officially called 'lunging' with commando pro it's a bit overpowered, quite often I get killed when they 'lunge' through a shotgun blast at point blank....plain dumb.
Tac knife/commando/lightweight/marathon and those chaps rack up 50 odd kills a match. I can do it but don't enjoy it game play wise so only do it if someone is really bugging me or I'm doing rubbish. Feels a bit like cheating to me, that and no/quick scoping snipers and noobtubers...
(must admit I've tried quick scoping and can't do it so there must be some skill to it)
First online shooter I've played, disappointed to be honest I thought it was supposed to be realistic, it's fun, but not realistic. I'm hoping Blackops is bette

^ better than noobtubing. Last refuge of the scoundrel, that it.
Posted 1 year ago # -
If you can't kill a knifer, you're doing something wrong. And if you think quick scoping is cheating, you're wrong, its pretty hard, it takes skill.

Well Black Ops is nearly totally different. No more stopping power perk - so no over powered guns. No more quickscoping for the haters of it. Loads of stupid killstreak rewards like Radio controller explosive cars and remote cameras.
But the new game types look awesome:One in the chamber: one bullet to kill someone with if you miss you need to knife. Every kill gives you a new bullet
Gun game: you start with the worst weapon and every kill gives you the next best gun. (Stolen from Counter-Strike)
Sharpshooter:Everyone has the same gun and they switch every few minutes.

Sounds weird, unless its one hit one kill regardless of where you hit?

If you wait a few months after games come out, you can get them for five pounds or so off Amazon.

RM - yeah it is one shot kill. only for that game type though.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Ok, that sounds pretty cool then.

I actually got this yesterday in MW2 when playing ground war on the snowy map., not come across it before in 2 weeks play (lots of time on my hands as I have a broken collar bone)
Tbh I didn't know what was going on so quit...(I like sniping on that map and couldn#t work out where my rifle was!). Not a fan, maybe when I get better and after a challenge.

Only the poop ones. See up there paying more for a year old game than I paid on release date.
Posted 1 year ago # -
No, you can get good ones too. A mate is into games for his Ecks Bocks, and only ever buys games from Amazon. Never spends more than a tenner. Once he's bored with it, he sells it on usually at very little or no loss. See, if you stay a year or two behind the latest trends, then you can get all the games which were the 'latest thing' but have now been ignored by the numpties paying top whack so's they can brag to their other dorky friends about their highest scores...
(Goes off to play original Halo and COD2...)

No deals to be had this year, i been told that JS have it on spend £30 in store and get the game for £25, Tesco are doing the buy a chart title and get the game for a half price, which is the same as Game and Gamestation. Only one keeping quiet at the moment is Asda.
Only snag with COD is that the games hold there value all year round just like Fifa, I traded COD:World at War only 2 weeks ago and still got £30 trade in value! so a bonus for me, but a 2 year old game normally goes for a £5!

Fred - just have a look at how much MW (1 and 2) go for on Amazon...
Posted 1 year ago # -
From about £9 to £15 on Amazon. I dare say in a few months MW2 will probbly be cheaper.
My point is that you can get games which are thirty or forty pounds when they first come out, a lot cheaper even new, if you are prepared to wait a while. And second hand, you can pick up some right bargains. The same mate's nephew gets games off his school/college mates for fivers and tenners and stuff, only a few weeks after they come out, because the kids are bored with them and want the latest games.

So not a fiver... and that is for a four year old game.

Here's a question guys...
I've been playing COD MW2 online for about 8 months on and off now on my pc. No expert that's for sure but I quite enjoy the odd game and will probably invest in black ops sometime soon as well...
But what the **** is some of this lingo you're on about? What does "noobtubing" mean?
What is quickscoping? And how does one teleport should one want to??? Am I missing out a lot here, like I say played it quite a bit, certainly not great at it, but on level 51 now...
Oh and anyone else on here actually play it on the pc not a console?
