Default [Gamespot]MW2 breaks GameStop preorder record

Quote:
Activision and Infinity Ward's anticipated military FPS becomes most anticipated game in specialty retailer's history.

Infinity Ward certainly hasn't been skirting controversy in the lead-up to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's impending November 10 launch. Last month, the developer received flak from the enthusiast PC community over its decision to not support player-run, mod-friendly dedicated servers. Shortly thereafter, Infinity Ward raised eyebrows after confirming the authenticity of leaked footage revealing a controversial aspect of the single-player game.

But seriously. We'll see. That's all I can say. It may turn out to be fun.

I don't know about everyone else, but I'm getting pretty sick of all the "inb4" posts, it's pretty pointless, and annoying.

On topic, this is just about console sales, or sales in total, they are just trying to take attention away from all the canceled PC pre-orders.

cancelled my pc preorder last month. There are plenty of other games to play until L4D2 and BF BC2 come out. I'll buy this for PC when its $20, thats all a single player campaign game is worth imo. Or I'll buy it sooner if they put dedicated servers back in. either way...no big deal to me.

I concur....annoying tr0lls. (prolly red-faced atm...LAWL! )

--------------
I agree, its about the consoles. I hope there will be data on what was the canceled PC pre-orders numbers. I think there have been indicators from the resulting canceled PC pre-orders in regards to the value increase on them gift cards @ Walmart and Amazon.

Rewindlabs, I think IW and Activision Blizzard are already locked in seeing their IWnet servers through. As I have stated before, they have invested the time, effort, and money on that idea from the beginning. Given the time left, I don't know how much can be changed. I do hope something will occur.
