Even funnier is that neither Forza 3 or ODST were nominated for 360's GOTY.
ODST didn't deserve a nomination. It had a short campaign that didn't "push the envelope" and the multiplayer was a re-release.

Lesson learned from all this? Don't go to gametrailers.com for any news, previews, reviews, etc. because they obviously don't know what they're talking about. Case closed, next topic please.

ODST was shit it shouldn't have been nominated anyway. The assholes at bungie are selling us the same games and content over and over.
basically that's what other developers are doing too... for example the same reloading animations and other things in MW2 (AK-47, RPG-7 isn't even remodeled basically, etc) and in BFBC2

i dont understand why people pirate games, let alone hack them. its just fucking counterproductive. I would not be shocked if 2 years from now Xbox 360 games or the next gen console system has games that are $70 -$80 USD. I ran into a 16 year old kid in November in front of Gamestop during the midnight release of MW2, he told me he got banned from Xbox live because he got a pirated MW2 copy/ modded xbox the week before.  Looks like his ass got pwned.  get the point

If MW2 = COD4.5

L4D being L4D0.5

Hacking I don't understand, but I think in a lot of cases, people pirate games they otherwise wouldn't have paid for.  I'm not paying $60 for a consolified watered down shooter, regardless of how many stars IGN decides to give it.

I don't pirate games because I personally feel it speeds up the death of PC gaming, but I understand why people might feel the need.

60 bucks? PC games are normally like a third cheaper than console games...

imo there is no NEED to pirate games. Gmaes a re a luxury. It's simple theft is what it is.

Tbh, never have I regretted buying a game. Even TFC a few months before TF2 came out, I got value for money from.



MW2 though? Not a chance. It is entertaining; it is not worthy of the awards and ratings it gets.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

MW2 was (and still is, and will be for at least another year) priced at $60, but didn't earn that price tag, and that's why so many people pirated it.

If Activision wants to charge an all time high price for their game, it better not be a straight console port, but that's exactly what it was.

Oh wait, it had custom stuff like mouse control and text chat...

It should be noted that the IGN 2009 awards are out, and MW2 was largely ignored, it won the Xbox 360 shooter of the year, and nothing else.
