I'm beginning to think I might like COD4 better, lol. I think IW failed miserably with some maps (i.e. Karachi and Favela) where it's less about reflexes and accuracy and more about hiding properly. Those maps have absolutely NO flow to them. Now, Skidrow and Invasion have amazing flow with Highrise and Terminal somewhere in between. The rest are just meh...

But HOLY SHIT do I HATE Karachi...

**TinyEvel** · 11-18-2009, 10:20 AM

Skidrow is my favorite map. i think I might change my username to Flankapotomus.

Ceej · 11-18-2009, 10:22 AM

I'm going to go get some breakfast.

Then I've got no plans until class at 7 tonight. Anyone up for some MP?

Mr. Plow · 11-18-2009, 10:29 AM

Initially I didn't like Estate & Derail. Primarily because a good sniper could do very well on those maps and me using an smg didn't do well. Once I started using my sniper rifles, I now enjoy them. Gives me a break from using and SMG/LMG.

Honestly, I haven't found a map that I don't like yet. Are all of them great? No. People seem to not like Favela/Karachi - because like Metro said - it isn't about seeing someone and shooting. It's about checking corners and windows. Which doesn't bother me - I seem to do well when I am forced to slow down a bit and check corners.

I don't mind Derail or Estate, I actually like Derail quite a bit. Wasteland can get pretty boring, that map is usually under 10 kills for me unless people actually go into the trench.

I would really love to play all the COD4 maps with the current graphics and all the perks/guns. I'd probably pay $60 for that game, lol.

**Buck** · 11-18-2009, 11:32 AM

My Favorite Maps in order of me liking them

Love these maps, they are perfect for my style of play:
1. Scrapyard
2. Skidrow
3. Invasion
4. Afghan (even though it can be a bit sniperish at times)

I like these maps sorta
5. Wasteland
6. Favela
7. Underpass
8. Rundown
9. Karachi

Meh
10. Terminal
11. Estate
12. Rust (hardly ever played it)
13. Derail

The ones I hate, unless I'm w/ a party I will quit in the lobby
14. Quarry
15. Sub Base
16. High Rise

**Buck** · 11-18-2009, 11:34 AM

Oh, and I bought these bad boys last night.

Modern Warfare 2 tops entertainment industry, not just games

If you think Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has had a major impact on just the video game industry, you may need to adjust your expectations.

According to Activision Blizzard, the game's publisher, Modern Warfare 2 has set records across the entire entertainment industry.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the "biggest entertainment launch in history," Activision said in a statement. In its first five days of availability, the game set a worldwide record with about $550 million in sales, according to internal Activision figures. It's impressive. But more impressive is the list of launches that it beat out.

In the first five days of availability, Modern Warfare 2 has eclipsed the largest worldwide box-office opening, held by "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," which tallied $394 million over its first five days. It also beat "The Dark Knight," which holds the U.S. box-office record with $203.8 million in first five-day sales.

The game also narrowly trumped Grand Theft Auto IV, which captured $500 million in sales in its first five days of availability.

In other words, Modern Warfare 2 has had a major release.

The game's success also translated to major numbers on Xbox Live. Activision reported that "more than 5.2 million multiplayer hours were logged playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on the first day alone." On November 10, 2.2 million unique gamers played on Xbox Live, setting a new one-day record for the online-gaming platform.

Of course, it should be noted that all these figures come from Activision's internal estimates, which might differ from the NPD Group's official totals when it announces November video-game sales.

But until then, Activision can (rightfully so) celebrate Modern Warfare 2's success. And maybe the video-game industry, which has always received second billing to film in the entertainment space, can finally stake its claim to the top spot. Video games are, based on Modern Warfare 2's success, just as viable an entertainment platform as movies.

Is the entertainment industry aware of the bank WoW is pulling in for the same company on a monthly basis? lawl

At its peak, WOW had about 11.5 million monthly subscribers at about 15 USD/month. So monthly they were pulling in around 170 million. This game did 550 in 5 days. Granted, they won't sustain those numbers, but I imagine that through holiday sales they will probably generate what WOW does in 2 years.

You have to remember that those 11.5 million subscribers also payed $49.99 for the game + 2 expansion (or is it 3 now?) at $29.99 a pop. You also have to take the past players into account who also also payed for the game + expansion and that number will be much larger than 11.5 million.
