As per the title, for a game that made its money on the pc first I just dont understand this? are they making a pc only version?

But it just doe's not make any sense! its out for all the main consoles and the xbox360 is close to the pc.

I really hope that microsoft gets this vista dx10 games for windows right!
 
it will be out for pc, but it wont be the same cod3 as on the consoles. they are making a modern warfare one for the pc.

think of them as 2diff games but with the same name. the pc one and the console one
 
For what it's worth it is great on the 360. I do not normally like FPS on consoles but this one I can actually hit the huns.
 
Remember that whilst this is called Call Of Duty its not made by infinity ward the makers of the first 2 installments. Its a great game although some of it is pretty pointless like the new close quarters battle stuff and turning the right stick in circles for rowing.

I remember having to row like that in ape Escape :eek:

God that bugged me because if you didnt spin the the sticks at the same pace you would go in circles :p
 
I have just been playing it on the Xbox360 and I have to say that it is absolute next gen. Its an awesome title and well worth buying.

If only microsoft had brought out a mouse and keyboard for the 360. such a shame!!
 
maybe they realised that in comparison to COD1, COD2 sux ass completely

(im talking single player here as I think both suck in multiplayer)

it was VERY samey, a case of...

run down a linear path, duck for cover, kill 20 germans, move 2 foot forward, duck, kill 20 germans....clear for the next 30ft then repeate...infinite

it was so linear and the scenarios really had nothing that made them different or interesting

the adverts for COD2 and COD3 suck as well, it looks really kewl til you realise none of it is ingame and when you actually play it ingame the gfx are already dated by other games

With all due respect, next gen card? why does it not have a next gen card. Are you referring to the fact that its not DX10.

It certainly does have a next gen card with a next gen feel to the games. Isn't the R600 which is being release by ATI next year a redesign on the Xbox360 model?
 
ATI stated the 360 gpu is the power of a x1800xt, the R600 aint based on the 360 as the 360 can't do dx10, from all i seen on cod3 after playing it they just put some grass in not really a big step in the cod series.

I hear they doing a modern day cod for pc etc, not sure how much of this is true.

TBH, I played COD3 last w/e. I'm haven't been a console player since the dreamcast, but this game almost had me buying a 360. I hold my hat off to the team who developed this game, and am really tempted to buy a 360 tomorrow just for this game. Imagine a war movie and being in it, here you go :)
 
Why do people associate DX levels with consoles? I remember seeing one guy saying a PS3 couldn't play Crysis because it didn't support DX10. Consoles Don't use DX at all, they use different progams for their algorithms.
