Sounds like from MW2PC website. But oh well, I am too lazy to download this. The lack of space in my HDD is disturbing.

And being leaked to the internet means a big disaster.

Still,DotA is based on one map all these while.People who play DotA for years are still sticking to one map.

Also,most of the time,gamers tend to stick to one map for almost every game.

I dont see whats wrong with getting HoN.

Communism blows, so do broken records, especially when its a reel of hate looping over and over again.


HON's HON la. 30 USD for better graphics, familiar gameplay, potentially better lobby, and from what i was told, they have dedi servers. lol.

Imagine if MW2 had the same MP system as COD4, and being priced at RM160-165. HON/DotA players would say the same. They don't care bout new stuff like AC-130, new perks/weapons, nicer maps, etc. They'll just write it off, so imo a downright comparison would get us nothing but a nais flamewar. /k/ would be a better place for that.

You can get windows 7 for only AUS49.95 by using your univeristy's email. It's an offer you cannot miss!

And to the guy saying HoN has only one map - clearly hasnt play the beta version but yet makes claim it's not worth it. roflmao

I know,and im getting soon.

HoN isnt just one map.It's what DotA always is,with improvements on what is lacking.

You can get Win 7 Pro free if your university has MSDNAA

btw, any idea whether 8600GT with T8300 2.4GHz will run MW2 smoothly?

My uni is under MSDNAA but they only give it for free to CSE students.

Just forget about this.Get something else like L4D2,Dragon Age(probably kill our laptops though),Torchlight(awesome,runs on max!!!),or Borderland(probably medium or high).

After browsing through this thread I believe MW2 is going to be full of fail too.

And look, there is a reason they are taking this approach as opposed to something else.

Franchises like Modern Warfare are also meant to function as anglo-american propaganda, to legitimise their wars of conquest and hegemony and covert operations in entire cultures deemed as "evil".

Just look at the gameplay video above. They actually fed us a load of tripe from a fictional general, with platitudes like "what we do here affects us there" ("here"? "there"? WHERE???, and WHAT?), and "victory is written by the winners" and a whole bunch of other bullshit.

Bottomline, America doesn't have any real legitimacy to be in Afghanistan, propaganda like in Modern Warfare 2 helps to obfuscate that simple FACT with blind patriotism and jingoism.

And what do you need to do to impregnate weak minds with propaganda? You got to keep churning out FRESH propaganda often enough so that it seeps into consciousness.

for my uni, they're offering it to engineering students, but we non-engineering student managed to get it too
u might wanna try to login

well, i still wanna try MW2...

i so want to buy this but with the mp fiasco, i will just wait for the reviews and see how it goes b4 i spend the rm200.00.

The first Modern Warfare started with the US troops being all gung ho and HOO AAH and even before the mid way point of the game, they're all smoldering from the radiation from a nuke blast... I'd hardly call that a very positive view of America's military might.

Above post is lolicon.

Awesome but I can't wait for the PC version review and their judgement on IWnet.

wtf. They have nukes now? This is soooo not gonna look good. ==

Nuclear weapons in the arms of terrorists is just a fictional bogeyman to further war propaganda.

The Anglo-American alliance and European nations are the ones who have nuclear weapons, and it is America that has threatened people with them, as well as not ruled out nuclear first strikes.

This is for the simple fact that they do intend to use them.

You've missed my point completely:
The US military's strategy to neutralize a rogue nation is to go in all guns blazing and they ended up being kicked in the balls.

Unless you're suggesting that the real life US military SHOULD invade other countries because all this nuclear threats by terrorists is bollocks (Because if that were the case, the first game would've ended quite abruptly).

Guess what? They already have. Well, there's no nuclear fallout over our skies, but it certainly isn't a bed of roses either.

I've not missed your point. But you've missed mine. The "nuclear bomb" in the game mirrors exactly the propaganda repeated by US media outlets, and in fact serves as a fictional casus belli to convince simpletons of the rightness of "pre-emptive action".

These nuclear weapons in the hands of terrorists and "rogue nations" does not exist.

The true purpose of such a story is to prepare Americans to suffer losses and to provide a fictional casus belli and convenient bogeyman for whatever military adventure is undertaken.

This has nothing to do with making American military power look good or bad. That point is already MOOT. They have successfully made it so that the average gamer identifies with the "good guys" supposed mission of "making the world safer".

That is all that matters. That people continue to associate American military power with such ideals and values and fictional stories propagated by mass media, contrary to the actual reality.

And.... since when did this thread transform into a political debate?

This post has been edited by Luftwacko: Nov 3 2009, 03:09 AM

This game has everything to do with politics.

Attempting to turn a blind eye to its political and propagandic aspects, only means that you willingly collude to subject yourself to it unquestioningly.
