Why the Taliban in the Medal of Honor is a non-issue.

Ok, let me start this off by saying I have nothing but respect and admiration for the American soldier (or sailor, marine, or airman, as the case may be).  I'm working on a Masters Degree in Military History, with my focus on American military history.  Reading about the experiences of American soldiers throughout history has ...

I wish I knew how to quit you….

  So it's been a while since I posted, I know, and I'm sorry for that. There's just been a lot going on. I've had real-life commitments, there's been general laziness, but the key factor for my lack of communication is I've just been really busy gaming. Now, I know it may seem a bit contradictory ...

Bad Company 2 continues its not-so-covert war against Modern Warfare 2 with map pack announcement

2

DICE have taken every opportunity to capitalize on the mistakes made by Activision and Infinity Ward with regard to Modern Warfare 2.  From their timely announcement that Bad Company 2 would be using dedicated servers right down to the language on the game's info page (emphasis mine): All of [Bad Company 2's] features combine to deliver ...

MW2 Map Pack: It’s just like the REAL Stimulus Package!

6

This goes along with my article from last week.  In that article, I discussed Modern Warfare 2's apparent failure to keep the player base occupied and coming back for more as time goes on.  Well, Infinity Ward was concerned that such a thing was either going to happen or happening already, because they will soon ...

Modern Warfare 2: How many players?

2

Tom's Hardware has a post in which one Ryan Bowling (Edit: His name is Robert.  Tom's reported his name incorrectly) at IW claims that MW2 has 25 million unique users.  Yes folks, 25 million.  The subtitle for this little gem of a mini-article is "Modern Warfare 2 is the major game for online gamers."  First off, don't ...

All classes in the game have received their new weapons and gadgets save for one class, the Engineer, and the developers over at Valve have been hard at work for ...

StarCraft II Beta Live…If You Still Care

4

The beta for StarCraft II began today. Or yesterday. Maybe early this morning. Honestly, I don't really care, but I suppose there are plenty of people who still do. In my humble opinion, the hype-machine started far too early for Blizzard's latest iteration of the big daddy of the modern RTS, and I ...

The PC as a “platform”

0

Microsoft and Sony have it easy, in a way.  Xbox Live and Playstation Network are easy methods of integrating a multiplayer experience because everyone has the same operating environment, the same hardware, the same software.  The PC is a different issue altogether.  The PC is a platform, in a sense, but only in the respect ...

Good Advice Wrapped in Some Healthy MW2 Hating

0

Coming from a console player no less!  While I think the term "noob" gets thrown around too much by retards who think it's actually something that will offend someone, this is an excellent video on how not to be one in Bad Company 2.  Unfortunately it would appear that MW2 Syndrome has invaded the PC ...
