Looks more awesome than Modern Warfare 2, and to be honest -- I cannot wait

[Tits McGee]

Is it bad to be more excited for this game than I was for MW2?

[apsham]

Yes.

[TKz]

Yeah, I didn't really follow all the MW2 hype, but jesus, this looks pretty much exactly the same. I mean seriously, I cannot spot a single difference.

[Tits McGee]

you get to use vehicles.

[apsham]

Which is all well and good, but the Battlefield games just don't appeal to me on as high of a level due to the overall design that they took with the way that the characters are portrayed. Don't get me wrong, I love the single player and think it works well.. just multiplayer feels and looks clunky as hell to me.

[TKz]

you get to use vehicles.

If I already owned MW2, I doubt that'd be enough to get me to buy this game as well. I thought you could already do the Helistrike thing in MW2 anyway? I don't know about Tanks (well, I know they were naff in World at War...), but still.

[JasonM]

One thing that makes this better than MW2 in every way... YOU CAN BLOW HOUSES UP!

[Tits McGee]

I still miss Socom on the PS2 and vehicles.. Helistrike in MW2 really doesn't compare.

The multiplayer demo is out for the XBOX 360 now. Anyone wanna try it out?

[King Ellis]

Are you actually able to get a group together in the same room? I remember on the Beta for the first that it wasn't possible. I suppose I would be up for it if a few of us got together.

[Tits McGee]

I'm not sure yet. I just put it in my download list for xbox from the website.

[King Ellis]

Huzzah! You can play with friends. It gives you a list of your online friends on the left with the option to join them if they're in a game. If they're not, you can create a new squad and invite them.

So, yeah. If we get a game going then count me in.

[Tits McGee]

Have you been able to play yet? It won't let me join a game says the servers may be down

[King Ellis]

Nope, says the game is unavailable each time I try and join a game.

[Tits McGee]

I'M IN A GAME.

[Cactus Drags]

Downloading now. Never played the first one past the multiplayer beta, but it seemed pretty cool.

[Maxx]

I'm downloading as well

[King Ellis]

I managed to join a game, shoot down a helicopter, revive about 5 people, get a kill and disarm a bomb!

[Tits McGee]

The sounds in the game are freakin amazing. This alone wins it over for me.
