    Am I the only person who doesn't have a problem with MW2's multiplayer? It just works for me. Yeah, I've had an occasional lag problem, but not really any more than I have with dedicated servers.

    disagree witht he green drives i have 5 * 1.5 TB in my server which is on 24/7 saving me ~20W/hr

    or i think ~ £18 a year

    the price for them was no more expensive when i bought them aswell

    and the performance is great for H.264 / mp3 / Websites / other home use

    Yeh, and the just part is the issue. It doesn't do anything else. We have PCs God damn it! I want a little bit more from my £40 purchase than, "it works". No dedicated servers, no clan support, no mods. Frankly, I think it is sickening.

    And that's forgetting how terrible the whole cheating issue is handled!

    What?

    The Holocaust was sickening. Clubbing baby seals to death with a piece of wood is sickening. Sarah Jessica Parker's face is sickening. IWNET is a trifling matter all things considered; a mere inconvenience or annoyance in your daily life.

    Have some perspective please.

    Actually you have clan support. You use the Steam groups feature and private matches.

    You pay the same as the console players - what makes you think you're entitled to more, other than precedent? Get a grip.

    but green hard drives are cheap. was £55 for 1TB from BT user Buzzon, 1 year ago.

    why does everyone forgot Fermi and Larrabee?

    also, Richard is a hardware guy, (so am i) so get the games/software stuff out of here.

    why does everyone keep talking about everything which sucks (like we don't have enough depressing things to think about) why don't we talk about the things which where succesful

    When people who have bought MW2 will stop b*tch*n around, let it go, for god's sake! I had issues, I managed to get them sorted out and enjoy the game. Always the same complaints.

    Agreed with the bagman, talk about the succesful things since they're more pleasant to know, read and discuss.

    If you want depressing things turn on the news, there you have a full hour of misery...geez... that's why I don't watch them.
