Your choice what you do with your money.

I just grabbed it off Steam too. I just can't be asked moving to a shop to search it out. It was literally 2 clicks as well!

Now downloading SP at 1.9MB/s and MP at 1.2MB/s .

Game seems ok, dont really like it as much as MW2 as of yet tbh but only played a hour or so.

As for the lag / reg etc, its fine apart from i occasionally get spikes where it locks up then a second later i appear somewhere else.

Haha nice! I'm having to pay for mine this year so I'm being a little cheap by not getting the 50Mb virgin lol.

Halls was just epic last year though. Using FTP maxed out the 100mbit line pretty much :P.

Oh yeah, and singleplayer is pretty cool. Just starting the Vietnam mission. Loving it all! Can't wait for MP.

What do people think then?

It's funny how loads of people with new PCs seem to be having issues running this game, as it's all smooth as butter on mine.

I've completed the SP, and thought it was rather fun. I enjoyed the different storytelling manner and the missions were tight. There is a lovely range of guns as always, and a tonne of cool cinematics. Felt just like a film for a lot of it. Lots of badass moments were had .

The only disappointing area was that there isn't a whole lot of free roaming you can do. I also just wish things were a little less scripted, and that the story could go 2 ways, depending on your actions. The helicopter stuff was also waaayyyyy too dumbed down for PC. It seemed to auto adjust the height for you depending on whether you want to go "forwards" or "backwards". Pretty shit imo. Can understand why console player would appreciate that though.

Multiplayer is good, although I've only played about an hour of it. I like the method of unlocking stuff, as now I can choose what I know I'll want! Not tried multiplayer zombie mode yet .

You want a tight cinematic experience as well as a free roaming choice-based one? They don't exactly go hand in hand...

But yeah, I enjoyed the SP, and really want to have a go at the Pentagon zombie level. My only problem with the singleplayer was that I didn't... really care about any of the characters. Except maybe your mate in the Arctic Circle mission (though that's just one scene more than anything), and I had trouble to begin with in telling some of them a part. The mystery side of the plot was cool (though you can work out most of it by the Pentagon briefing, or at least, I did).

As for MP, I'm waiting until the lag-bug thing dies down, because I'm crap enough at these games without massive bugs like that.

If you want any sort of choice or freedom when you play a game, CoD is not a series you're going to like :P.

Have only played it on mitches pc for about 20min and thought it was good except the lag spikes, played the campaign on flat mates ps3 and thought it was pretty epic, liking the combo's of weapons, and when has a fps single not been linear story, that pushes you towards set objectives! Chalex go play Fallout if you want to wander around.
Psu died and my router is being gay so until I get this fixed I won't be on soon :s unless someone has a psu spare that could be posted to moi would muchos muchos appreciated

Its not as addicting as previous titles, however it it more more balanced, except maybe the AK74u.
