Modern Warfare 2 fixes and patches

The game has gotten so popular and so fast that the hackers were already offering cheats as of day one! The Airport massacre scene leaves you drooling and this multiplayer game has got it all.
Some of the cheats will of course get people banned from the online game but even so this game has so much to offer.
There are all kinds of XP hacks that are sorted and fixed. The one thing that patches can fix is the Sentry gun placement, but the Akimbo 1887 got stuck with another barrel cut so the efficiency is becoming less and less.
One more thing to take note over here is that there is not going to be a speed boost for the players with Care Package, Sentry Gun or Emergency Air drop grenades either.
Nothing is going to fix the hacking long term, at least not for a while yet, but it’s still a great game.
Bad Company 2 is not a competitor of Modern Warfare 2
After Modern Warfare 2 sold millions of copies worldwide, people acutely raised the question: Will there ever be a game that can beat the brainchild of Infinity Ward? Who else can do something equally interesting, dynamic and beautiful? And just a month later a new blockbuster was found.

Everyone looked in the direction of Battlefield: Bad Company 2. This new series will keep alive the World War II for at least a few scenes before it is transited into the present day.
Such details, along with accounts of power-drill attacks, appeared in the ESRB’s M-rating justification. Bad Company 2 is not a competitor of Modern Warfare 2 as they are of almost different genres.
In Call of Duty you can single or double occupancy with one another, enough to run, shoot and putting opponents in batches. But Battlefield is purely a command fighter, where it is hard to kill, where alone you can not do anything, and where you want a well-oiled team to survive.
Halo: Reach will have massive beta, not like MW2
It is tough to say and also no one is saying that Halo: Reach will be better than Modern Warfare 2, but here is a reason for saying it, if anyone says. What it is believed that the Halo: Reach game will not be suffering the same pitfalls that has made MW2 almost non-playable. The main reason is that Halo: Reach will be a better gaming experience, if not a better game.

When the first MW was about to be launched, IW released a huge public beta. Everywhere gamers instantly fell in love with the game.
After this, in the sequence, IW decided that MW2 did not need any beta testing by the average gamer.
We can’t say that a beta would have prevented what we are seeing of MW2 today, but we can at least say that there was no beta and there is lots of problems.
Conclude yourself. Halo: Reach is going to have massive beta testing, for both single player as well as for multiplayer modes.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was the biggest entertainment release in the history of video game industry and Avatar movie has steadily pulled in millions per week.
Now it seems that games and movies both compete with each other for audiences’ attention and also for entertainment dollars.
We have seen that the release of GTA IV and Halo 3 led to a decline in theater attendance because millions of gamers stayed at home. The release of MW2 outpaced that of any Harry Potter book and also any movie in the history of entertainment industry in terms of sales in one week.
With the mark of 1billion sales of MW2 and Avatar each, it is nowhere evident of competing films and games.
Avatar is a stunning experience and it is also the second-highest grossing film in the history. Modern Warfare 2 topped the sales of the year NPD report revealed, though it was just released two months ago.
Record breaking December sale
HE month of December last year witness as the best sales month yet for video games. The top seller of the season, Modern Warfare 2, reached a sale figure of $1 billion. Not to forget that the game was released on November 10.

Compared to the December of 2008, the game console sales rose 4 percent. According to the data revealed, Nintendo dominated console sales by selling 3.81 million Wiis and 3.31 million DSes. In the PlayStation 3 it was sold just 1.36 million units and the Xbox 360 is at 1.31 million.
Within five days of its launch, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 moved 2.75 million copies on the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3. When this figure is assuming then the sales of Modern Warfare 2 didn’t make up the difference.
The best part of all these to know is that the gaming industry didn’t fare as well overall in 2009 as it did in 2008. Experts say that the recession period may also have made things a little rough in 2009. It is understood that the gamers are feeling more confident.
Electronic Arts attacks MW2
Electronic Arts (EA) been throwing punches at Modern Warfare 2 for sometime claiming that the new Battlefield: Bad Company from the DICE studio would have dedicated servers for the PC gamers. It will be valuing the importance of PC gameplay and also customization of it.

Jens Uwe, headmaster of the European division of EA, said in an interview on Friday, “In March we will launch Battlefield: Bad Company 2, which is our first strong attack on Call Of Duty… The shooter space is one we don’t want to give up. It’s an important genre and we were the number one. So we are certainly working on how we can get that crown back and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is an important product in that context.”
One who has played first Bad Company as well as the Modern Warfare titles may be knowing well that the games are very different in style and also in gunplay. We may also have found out that DICE is on the way of making some changes in it such as making the enemies more easier to kill to fall in line.

Modern Warfare 2 still tops UK chart
Even after two months of its release, Modern Warfare 2 is reigning supreme. It is not like other videogames that comes and goes. For it it is impossible to budge from the top spot in the UK videogaming chart.

Some are in a view that the launch of Mass Effect 2, space-based RPG from BioWare and Electronic Arts, might take down MW2. Let us wait and see whether the forthcoming games can or cannot bring down the top position of MW2.
In the United Kingdom videogaming chart the second spot is crowned to Assassin’s Creed 2 from Ubisoft. This is one of the games which maintained its launching date in the face of behemoth, but it has been rewarded with the second position.
In the chart, Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games from SEGA is benefiting because of the arrival of Olympic events in real world. Wii Fit Plus has also gained and is now five against the earlier position of six.
