I guess InfinityWard isn’t hoping to sell any copies of their upcoming release, Modern Warfare 2, for the PC because they just completely destroyed the multiplaying gaming aspect of it. They announced that there will be no dedicated servers allowed, VAC and full steam integration will be used which means zero modifications allowed and no punk buster, you’ll be required to join games through a matchmaking service similar to what consoles use. This is really a horrible idea overall and has completely alienated the PC gaming market. It’s amazing to see a title like Call of Duty which got started on the PC just abandon the market that got it started in the first place.
I’m sure you all know how I feel about consoles in general but just in case you didn’t I’ll let you know. I think consoles are completely worthless in the state they’re in now. They are nothing but glorified PCs that don’t offer keyboard and mouse support all while tying you to a proprietary OS that allows the console company and game developers to have you at their mercy. I certainly won’t be buying Modern Warfare 2 and I hope others will show their displeasure by boycotting this title as well.
