    boo-urns, I'm not shelling out for hardened after MW3 had zero interest in the map packs after the first one

    Purchasable after a while id say.

    I was watching a livestream with one of the main game developers yesterday, Vahn I think, and he said it's a possibility but there's no mention about it right now. He said that it's not a matter of design, development etc. but just a business/marketing thing they'd have to discuss.

    Saying that, you can be sure it'll be released eventually. Treyarch sure as hell won't miss any opportunity to make more money of COD players..

    just off the phone to xtravison.they can give me 42e credit for mw2 mw1 fifa 13 and bF3. looks like i can get this game for less than 20e. im not interested in the double xp weekend as im not around so i just need to get my hands on nuketown after that.

    It looks like its going to be a good game but I think you should sit down and watch a video to see how you feel about .

    Me either, feels weird not having seen much apart from trailers and a few mins of gameplay, was all over the previous ones in the run up to launch.

    I'm wondering the same. This will be the first COD that I've gone into completely blind. Ive only seen that Nuketown video and nothing else. Hopefully I'm not disappointed. There seems to be some pretty good new features.

    Anyone know if the campaign is any good?

    That seems very scabby from xtravision. they will be selling fifa 13 for 40 alone. why are you getting rid of fifa. thats surely a must have in every house

    FIFA games have terrible resale value, anything with yearly updates does like WWE games etc. was in gamesotp near me last year and they wouldnt take any FIFA trade ins past Feb, no sale value at that point.

    Oh interesting. I thought they would sell it easily as its new enough. I have no games to trade in against black ops 2:( Unless they want mw2. Started playing it last week for the first time in years. Forgot how much fun it is. Way less frustrating than ultimate team. Now where will i get money to buy black ops 2:confused: Being a poor student is a great laugh:p

    Ah man, I wouldn't do that if I was you....they're taking you for a ride.

    MW2 and COD4 fair enough....but Fifa 13 and BF3?! :eek: No way E42....

    This is a month old game along with BF3 that is not even close to the end of it's lifecycle. Disgraceful how these stingy f*cks can lure people in with such shitty deals. If I didn't have those games, I'd give you more for them ffs. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,909 ✭✭✭greenman09


    i never got into fifa. played it for the first week then it sat there since. years since i played it before this. they gave me 28 credit on it. and this is weeks after they only offered 20. few of the games i got rid of were only gathering dust.

    Forget Xtravision....

    You will get better deals online. Throw BF3/Fifa13 up on eBay or something...

    If I was you I'd rent BLOPS2 to get a feel for it. With these recent COD games, the marketing hype is usually all it is. A few days with the game and it becomes repetitive anyway. Besides, you'll find BLOPS2 on the net for cheaper in a few days. If you can wait a few weeks you'll see mountains of them for sale by people that have gotten over the novelty and looking for a quick sale.

    Nuketown and NT Zombies will be released next year as DLC...because the community will want it on the marketplace and Activision are a bit partial to making a quick buck as we all know. :D

    You know I've never played the campaign in any of the Call Of Duty's right? :pac:

    No joke.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    No way! Actually I only played the BLOPs one when I lost Internet for a while but love MW2 one

    Bit of a bummer. Lobby leaderboard isn't working at the moment so can't check stats and stuff anyways.

    What the story with the zombie campaign? I haven't heard anything about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,139 ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    Gives you a nice head start though.


    Quick, get'm! :D

    Haha!
