    The maps on MW3 have that same bland brown/grey feel. Just played MW2 to try get into it all again but it's just so bland looking.

    Give me Hazard on Black ops any day. I can actually spot people a long distance away on those kinda of textures and colours.

    Im the opposite, find it alot easier to see people in mw2 compared to black ops

    Tbh I don't buy Cod for the graphics or how the colour of the maps look, doubt many other people do aswell. They can't improve them much more on MW2 without dropping the 60FPS.

    not about distance. It's the way peeps using ghost are hard to pick out sometimes on maps such as hanoi, possibly jungle too if they're prone.

    Ghillie suits in mw2 were laughable in any map but wasteland :)

    In fairness it's new to the COD series. Crysis 2 isn't that old either.

    its new to COd though, and Crysis 2, that game that came out barely 6 months ago?
    Crysis did have this awesome feature though where if you got 3,5 or 7 kills in a row, WITHOUT dying,to make it a bit more difficult, you got rewards or "killstreaks" as the kids call them, you could see people on radar, always handy, you got a helicopter to fly about and shoot the other team! cant believe no other fps games had that feature before.

    this is true and unlike some people(cough coraven cough) im fairly supportive of the idea. on the one hand we get a a dozen games which are pretty much clones of each other . or the other way of looking at it is that we get games that have taken the best features of their predecessors and combined them for an even better experience

    fair enough and sorry if it seemed like a dig at you i was just letting you know it wasnt exactly a new an innovative idea brewed up by IW

    yo captain sarcastic i never said that it was wrong of them to take it. i never said they never took anything themselves either so dont be too hard on me . the important thing to take from all this is that they've all clearly stolen from counterstrike

    I know it isn't innovative and neither is the survival mode really, but at least they're trying to expand the experience for everone, so kudos for that.

    Read from a website that the DLC released during the yearly subscription will be available after the subscription expires. I know a few people during the first weeks of the Elite being announced wondered if it's just available when the subscription is active.

    I kinda torn on this right now after watching a good few vids. Its the exact same as mw2 showing to me that the infinity ward split dealt a big blow to the games production. Theres nothing really in there that excites me. I think I might have to go get battlefield or skyrim instead and maybe get mw3 at christmas. Whatcha think?

    they told me 100 minimum. said no confirmed price but considering they got told there's only regular and hardened that the price could be higher

    http://www.gamestop.ie/42118_Xbox_360_Modern_Warfare_3_Limited_Edition_Xbox_360_Console_320GB_Game_2_Custom_Pads.aspx

    Think its just the standard game it comes with.

    ye so im looking at about 350 euro with the elite service but iv got 2 20 euro vouchers and i might trade in a game or 2 because i have to get the hardened edition because of the dlc.

    what do ye reckon 300 for the console 2pads, headset, and game or 100 buck for the hardened edition?

    which do you think is better value...
