Hardly easier than most of the other recoilless ARs in this game.
Just started playing live on Saturday. Epic. I'm at level 16. Its very addicting and I will have no life now. And will suck at school. But when I signed up for live, I didn't use my username that I had before signing up for live (because you get signed up of your username when setting up live) and i never logged back in, so I lost about 350 achievement points. not much, the only thing I really did was beat the campaign and a few special ops missions.

they must not had patched it for ps3 because everyone is still care pack glitching every single round
IW is so ing stupid. What happened is they released a patch for 360 and ps3, but MS wouldn't approve it, as it solved absolutely nothing. So IW basically patched ps3 with a non-functional patch. They then designed a new patch for 360, which works for now, but they didn't release it to Sony. So now, for the time being, ps3 owners are SOL. They probably didn't even make a new ps34 patch, as Sony didn't tell them they had to. That sucks for ps3 owners. IW are a bunch of ing assholes.
It leads me to believe that had Microsoft not stepped in and forced IW to get their half-assed together, we'd all have installed a patch that didn't work and IW would have told us to GFOS after the fact. Oh well, thank God for Microsoft.

Don't see those words uttered much - no?
Semi on/off topic... so I bought that MAG game for the PS3, and I bought the rocketfish PS3 controller that is shaped/designed similar to a 360 controller. As I've mentioned in some other places, never really played any of the playstations so the PS controller in general feels weird to me. Anyway - MAG controls are not customizable - and I guess it's common to shoot with R1 on PS controllers...? So that's equivalent to RB on the 360 controller... and that simply doesn't fly. So I'm trying the game with the normal PS3 controller, but my question is does COD in general use R1 as the fire button for Playstation?
LOL funny but true. Granted us Xbox users had to wait a few more weeks but its nice to play straight up again.
Microsoft, they are supposed to fix when they make you pay for it.
also lol ps3
this is why I pay for Xbox Live.
you get what you pay for, ps3 users.
i want to get the pirate flag emblem, damnit
anyone want to boost with me? 300 kills while enemy is flashbanged. can be done in cage match.
i never boosted before, but i will for this one
can't you just change the button configuration in the pause menu?
Not on MAG... no idea with COD, I have it on 360 so it's not an issue. MAG has 5 or 6 preset button configurations... all with R1 being the fire button.
I just read over at IW that they released the new patch for ps3. Making all the ps3 stuff from yesterday, invalid. But still... 'bout time.

While most of you slept, drama struck Infinity Ward, the creators of the Call of Duty series, with allegations of "insubordination" from publishers Activision and the rumoured departure of the studio's two top men. This post will be updated throughout the day.
The news first hit yesterday afternoon, when G4 reported that IW heads Vince Zampella and Jason West had met with Activision, after which neither were seen from again by staffers and "a bunch of bouncer-types" showed up outside Infinity Ward's offices.
The situation between the developer and publisher had been described as "tense" for some time.
Things got interesting a few hours later, when updates to Jason West's Linkedin page revealed that he had ceased employment at the developer.
And then got really interesting when an SEC filing from earlier in the day revealed that Activision had launched an investigation into some allegedly iffy conduct at Infinity Ward, including "insubordination" and "breaches of contract" that affected "two senior employees" at the studio.
That's everything we've heard, so far. Fascinating stuff for the innocent bystander. But what do we actually know?
What's Been Rumoured
- That IW bosses Vince Zampella and Jason West have been fired. Neither the pair nor Activision have issued statements regarding the issue, so the nature of their employment (or departure) is yet to be confirmed; remember, the Activision SEC filing only mentions "two senior employees", it doesn't name names. Indeed, we haven't heard anything from Zampella regarding the situation.
- That Activision sent security guards to the Infinity Ward offices. Who those men are, who sent them and more importantly, what they were doing there have yet to be determined. All we have are reports that they were "bouncer-types", nothing more.
What We Know
- The Activision SEC filing is legit, and is concrete information. They are serious allegations, and will probably result in a major lawsuit.
- Jason West no longer works at Infinity Ward. His Linkedin profile page is legitimate, and clearly states that he ceased employment at the studio in March 2010. We just don't know why/how he no longer works there.
That's it. Be sure to separate the two when considering the situation, as things are still incredibly murky. We will of course update you (and this post) throughout the day as we hear more on the situation.
That's probably a good thing - IW's main men were insulting Treyarch and acting like they were easily one of the best developers out there (some of that has to do with their unrealistic fanboys). Their iffy testing during development proves they have a long way to go to reach Valve or Blizzard's level. I continue sticking by my statement that MW2 is one of the best FPS of all time, disconting glitches.
I continue to think it's hot garbage. Discounting the glitches.I continue sticking by my statement that MW2 is one of the best FPS of all time, disconting glitches.
I guess that means this'll be the second straight CoD game you miss out on.
Actually, once I found out how awful mw2 was, I revised my position and got WaW.
And I'm still playing mw2, I just think it's hot garbage.
You got WaW? The irony.
FWIW I think it looks and feels horrible compared to the IW games. Blocky, stiff and crudely animated.
But as far as the gameplay goes, at least it's something other than a bunch of God awful maps, half baked, cheap and/or non-functional perks and a mul ude of glitches.
Really, I kind of wish I hadn't bought either of them.

I finally got MW 1 this weekend and then went and got MW2. I like the campaigns more than the multiplayer so waiting to pick up the games when they're much lower in cost is a far better value for me. Really enjoyed the MW1 campaign. Enjoying the MW2 campaign so far as well.
What are you talking about. I mean, they, they suck. Pffftt.
I loved both MW's campaigns, and despite what others say, the online stuff is fun. I've now had some time with Black Ops online, and while it's better than WAW, it's still not as good as MW2. The game play is slower and killing people is harder in a bad way. Granted I play a lot of hardcore mode on MW2, but even on Black Ops Hardcore mode it's not the same.
I don't know how many times I've shot someone dead on as they're sprinting towards me only to have them knife me dead. Really?
I found I did adapt quickly to Black Ops though because of the slower pace. But it's still not right imo.
The only FPS I ever played a lot of multiplayer for was Fear. I have too many games waiting in the wings to devote too much time to multiplayer and I only have 2 weeks to really play before school starts up again and robs me of time.
I've beaten more games in the past couple of weeks than I have in the past 7 months I've owned my PS3.
After I finish MW2, I'm going to start Dead Space then finish Arkham Asylum. I still have Dragon Age sitting around and I should finish KillZone 2. I may even finish Heavy Rain.
I don't play cod multiplayer anymore because it sucks.
But GREAT purchase Manny. cod4 is the still (by far and hands down) the high-water mark of the series. WaW was under-developed and ugly, Black Ops was still sorta ugly, good on story, but very linear and on rails, mw2 was a jockular, incoherent -fest, made for ignorant people without attention spans. cod4's campaign still strikes me as awesome; it's gorgeous, open/dynamic in its gameplay and coherent as a story. It ushered in this generation of Call of Duty games and unsurprisingly remains the best; the next cod game I buy will need to re-invent things ala cod4, otherwise, I'm done with that series.
as an aside, i recently finished all the spec ops missions on veteran... all going solo.
The mission where you have to dispatch the 10 juggernauts using only explosives and a knife was so ing frustrating. At least in the Wet Works mission you could flash bang and take em out with the barrett.
