first off, the single player is not 5 hours, its 8 hours. and the game sold for $39.00 on buy.com on the day of release for almost 6 hours. And free shipping too.

Good for buy.com. Retail however is $10 more than standard and for less features then CoD4.

i agree the multiplayer is kinda crappy.. but the story line and the game play of the single player campaign are the best i have seen.. bar none.. i have the frist cod mw.. which was a brilliant game in itself... but for mw2.. the campaign (which is more like 7 hrs.. i finished on the hardest setting) is gorgeous.. for those who cant afford the game.. i would recommend that atleast get a torrent of it.. forget multiplayer.. u need to play the campaign..

I have read all the reviews and hype with this game but like the first one, I am kinda blah about it. Weak online for a F.P.S. = no sale to me.

You'd be wrong about the first one... very strong MP, which tons of people still play.

Fucking steam...they charge 16€ more for the game. Retail is much cheaper. I would buy it if you guys are interested of playing it MP. But since i've seen your post and you say it's shit i'll just get a copy than.

ding i hate to say it but you're talking shit.  the game is good, the singleplayer is good as expected, but its no different or more innovative/interesting than mw was, and its certainly not groundbreaking or redemptive in any regard... i had a good time with the sp as i hoped to, but its not special any more than mw was, in fact i like mw's sp campaign better.  the mp is whatevs, fun as distraction but not worth the money yet.

with sp i dont care as much about cinematic experience as COD delivers as i do story and thematic elements like with HL2 or something like fallout/system shock 2/baldurs gate... like i said it was fun and very engaging but nothing to write home about and nothing i will be play through again and again like hl2 analyzing the story and thematic elements (dare i be academic here).

the game could have actually been princess barbie and people would have bought it on reputation alone, sales in 24 hours means nothing. but if you enjoy it thats all that matters.

BanEm you just need to mount the image to a virtual drive, no need to burn.

Finished the game and was disappointed. Last mission was as fun and hollow as the snowmobile mission (just press shoot and things in front die), no ending for the American story, nothing extra after the credits, and the 'intel' you collect throughout the game amounts to jack shit (unlike the awesome new modes it unlocked in cod4 that increased replay value).

I'll wait until I upgrade my cpu before I pick this one up.  Next game I buy will be L4D2 when it is half-off (ie, priced the way it should be, as a fucking expansion).

If you had rar files, it was just a matter of unpacking the iso.

If you can play COD4, then you should have no problem playing the second one.

Hey guyz i got a question. I got the game for PC today for my birthday and when I try to run it i get the following error:
Couldn't create a 1024 x 2048 render target surface: Wrong texture format

Anyone know what I can do? I changed my resolution to like 1024x768 but that makes everything (desktop, taskbar, etc) VERY big and I would prefer to avoid changing my settings each time. Thanks upfront.
