Where is those people who said "I will never buy cod again"???
Where is the evil activision that will not get your money ever again?

DARK WITNESS5748d ago

they are prob not here because they are not interested....

Conloles5748d ago

I aint buying this but if its good on PC I'll make sure to torrent it then buy a cd key so Activision doesn't get a cent of my money.

wicko5748d ago

Even though I hate Activision, if they properly support the game for PC users I'll buy it just to say "this is how PC games should be, keep up this kind of work". Rather than not spend any money, as Activision well then look at it as "well, doesn't look like adding those features changed sales at all so lets not bother with that again".

Despite how Activision behaves, they still end up publishing some good games.

will infinity wards name be on this one, or will it say evil sellout corp. when you boot the game up?

If they had a MP beta for it.

Especially when introducing so many crazy perks and insane killstreaks.

I wish the console versions would get dedicated servers too. Maybe it would do something about the awful lag that often happened with past CoD games.

Hideo_Kojima5748d ago

I have played around 40 hours oh MW2 and I remember lagging in 3-4 games (Where the bar goes red) and it was because the host changed but I can live with it.

DARK WITNESS5748d ago

I think he is talking more about bullet Lag, which you do get a lot of in MW2, you only need to watch the kill cam to see it in action.

It's a lot more noticeable when you play people who are in a different country to yourself.

rockleex5748d ago

Then you die.

You watch the replay, and you see that you weren't even close to the wall.

-_-"

Then other times during the replay the shooter shoots BEHIND where you are, and STILL gets you!

Nitrowolf25748d ago

wow way to make me think the console version will have them
he is only mentioning the PC version
"PC Fans - get your Dedicated Servers apparel today! "

ajeben8095748d ago

exactly right, this is misleading

chak_5748d ago

okay, that's a good first step.

now announce mod support and I might jump in

wicko5748d ago

This. If they allow mod support and in turn, custom map packs, a server browser, I might buy it.

Even though I can't stand Activision, if they do something right for once then I want my money to say so, perhaps leading to them doing more right things in the future.

COINTELPRO5748d ago (Edited 5748d ago )

Since CoD4 onwards features a country getting nuked, I hope North Korea and/or Iran gets nuked in Black Ops. Africa too.

chak_5748d ago (Edited 5748d ago )

wtf?

it's a gaming site here, get your stupidity out of here

hamoor5748d ago

I hope your house get nuked bitch
What Africa have done to you???

AssassinHD5748d ago

You know that Black Ops is covering the Cold War right? I would not bet on anything getting nuked.

Hideo_Kojima5748d ago

Yeah because if they nuke people it will become a HOT HOT HOT war :P

Metacritic Removes Resident Evil 9 Review From Fake AI Writer

Kotaku writes: "A Resident Evil Requiem review published by long-standing UK gaming news site Videogamer has been removed from Metacritic after readers pointed out it was written by a fake AI journalist who doesn’t actually exist. Videogamer‘s human masthead was gutted last week, sources tell Kotaku, and the site has been publishing apparent genAI slop ever since."

1nsomniac4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Genuinely well done on metacritic for taking such an immediate hard stance. Not often, if at all, you see that these days. Credit where it’s due.

Eonjay2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

This is really sad on so many levels. Not least of all the fact that all the human lost their jobs to a language model. Can we block all content coming from Videogamer site. Can we make a rule that content sumitted to N4G must be greated by a human being.

I'm gonna report every Videogamer article I see on N4G from now on so just putting it out there.

Christopher1h ago

N4G doesn't allow AI-generated content. Please report as you see necessary.

It is amazing but I'm starting to slightly miss the moron gaming press we had in the 2010s because at least they were human.
