6,000 copies of Modern Warfare 3 stolen from hijacked truck
 

Detructoid gives it a 9.5. The ensuing shitstorm in the comments reminds me why I've never had any desire to post at Destructoid.

Are they saying it should be a 10.

I heard another interesting story that some dude had used up his bank account, which was roughly 1,000 dollars and bought $1,000 worth of MW3 games and was selling copies for more than the regular price. Bought a new vehicle with the money. Don't know if this is legit, but quite interesting.

9.6

Everyone pissed that the score is so high (higher than BF3).

Jim Sterling has started reviewing everything and generally just trolling. I have no idea if this is better than BF3 or not, but I'd never trust his reviews to be honest. Everything he does is for reaction and he used to be funny, but he bought into his own hype and everything he posts now is 50+ comments of complaining usually.

Stay away from the Jim stories and it's fine. The chat on the homepage is alright too, bar a couple of douches.

Ah here comes the review score war. Fucking gamers.

Just found out that our local EB gave an extra $5 towards CoD if you traded in BF lol.

What? Let's do some quick math.

1,000 copies / $60 per copy ~ 16 copies of the game.
I'm assuming by new you mean a new vehicle and not just new to him. So let's say it was around $20,000.

$20,000 car / 16 copies = $1,250 per game.

Nope.

Also, why isn't this just in the MW3 thread and why would you quote something without sourcing it?

This isn't just about MW3 though.. It's more along the lines of piracy in the gaming world..

Why do I have to source it??

It was the first thing that popped on google, along with all the other stories stating the same thing..

Do you think I made this up??

No wonder this forum is full of virgin nerds..

HEY GUYS THIS SHOULD HAVE GONE IN VIDEO GAME NEWS

That XM25 is going to be the new weapon everyone hates.

It's a grenade launcher with a track on it. So when you aim with LT and click LS, your grenade will explode when it reaches that distance that you clicked at.

Watch out!! This werewolf is about to eat you!!

It was something that I heard. Could of been a old used car that was new to him. No details, just a story someone was talking about. Didn't believe it to be legit because I really haven't found the sources, but interesting if it was. Thanks for taking the time to do the math that wasn't asked for. :wave:

:eek:

Off topic, anybody with a hardened edition get their founder status on the website yet? Always get a 404 error when I click next. Must be busy.

Oh that sounds like a joy.

What sniper do you start with.

The barret

Omfg, no lie?

So is this game recommended?

I pretty much only play multiplayer.....

It might matter if grenades were anything like last game. I think I've been killed by explosives once.

I don't want to turn this into an argument at all, but after hearing that you didn't experience some of the most glaring issues (issues that large groups of people complained about) in MW2, I can't help but take everything you say about this game with a HUGE grain of salt. :-\

Also, a bit hard to tell what issues the game might potentially have since it just came out. Dunno, don't really want to discuss it at length or anything cause I'm still not going to buy it. Just got Dark Souls, Skyrim coming out, playing BF3 too. Definitely isn't a game on my agenda.

I seriously don't understand how someone can come in here and talk about refusing to play a game.

1) no one gives a fuck about your opinion. Its based on hearsay and you don't know what you're talking about.

2) you have nothing to add to the conversation. You're not stopping me from getting the game. I form my own opinions thank you. So why the fuck are you even coming to the thread?


That said. Played this for four hours today at a friends and I loved it. Can't wait to get it.

Cool story. I was worried you couldn't think for yourself.

Taking Requiem's advice, I too will be refusing to play this now.

Do you think Activision pays me to come here and say good things about the game or something? I have no vested interest in anyone here buying this. I'm just telling you what I saw. Tubes aren't close to what they used to be. They're weaker, and there's too many other more useful options.

Interesting.

While skimming over the videogame forum, I notice that I have posted in threads about games I am interested in, and did not post in threads about games I am not interested in.

What a novel concept.

First gold gun already. Thank you double xp from the prestige shop

I got this and played it for an hour....not because it is bad but my girl is deciding to blast madonna for 4 hours strait in the same room.

I'm getting it Thursday.

Figure Ill get it and try it when the resale value is high.

It happens - I never experienced the Javelin glitch, for example. Never noticed the infinite care package thing either.

you play on PS3?
