I am in total shock about this news, as a member of an active CoD4/WaW clan i feel i need to wear a black armband, this truly is a shocking blow to PC gaming - and further proof if needed, that "console" mentality is going to kill PC gaming.
How does the "piracy" claim back up this move? the majority of active online players of CoD4 are surely the competative clans (most players i see online are wearing clan tags), who due to having to register GUID's to be able to play in any leagues are all using genuine copys of the game, so why fail the people who have stood by the product and bought the game? simple, money.
Well, they are not having anymore of mine, if MW2 is not up to delivering a class leading online/clan game as per CoD4 i shall not be buying it, end of.
