Did you preorder with the affiliate link? Or do we have to cancel and use it?

Modified your post, haha. But now you have to click prestige, hur hur.

So, Amazon has two PC editions, the 'standard' and the 'hardened'. Is one more badass than the other? Had a troubled youth? what?

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

All they did was remove "Call of Duty #" away from in front of the title. Probably not their best idea. One of my friends who is a HUGE CoD fanboy didnt even know this game was coming. But for people here it shouldnt be to tough to figure out.  Head scratch

Although I think its probably good, cause thse two names would have no been good:

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2
Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare (with the 1st one being Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare)

They could've gone with Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2.

I can see them wanting to better distinguish between their WW II games and their modern-day games but switching naming conventions part way through the series is just confusing, to me at least.

So....no goggles with PC version?  WTF?

Then again, I don't understand why (when given the choice) anyone would choose to play this on a console rather than a PC.  That's akin to retardation.

A sane company would have just gone ahead and thought up a name other than Modern Warfare.

That it's a very archaic program and can be counter intuitive sometimes.

Fine.  I don't think it changes the fact opinion fact that this is a game that should clearly be played with a keyboard and mouse.

Punkbuster has a history of kicking me out of games for the most obscure of reasons, eg. for running Fraps. I prefer a pad for fps's, but even if I didn't, I'd run away screaming from any game containing PB.

I see a bunch of words strung together, but I do not understand their meaning.  I presume you mean a maxi-pad.

Modern Warfare 2 is already seeming to get an early victory here with Bioshock 2, Bayonetta, and Spilnter Cell: Conviction among other games, all being pushed back from their previous Nov-Dec release dates into next year.  As things stand right now, after the small flood of games in October, MW2 pretty much has the rest of the Holiday season to itself, unless Assassin's Creed 2 manages to make it out by the end of the year.

None of those other games mattered, Modern Warfare 2 achieved victory simply by existing.

They mattered in that I would have rather played any of them instead of MW2.

Reality often does not account for taste. I'd obviously rather play Conviction. Bayonetta and Bioshock 2, not so much.

Good. I could use less distractions for a must-have title.
