Before I get into this I want to give my take on MW2 on the PC in case people who read this don't already know it. I loved Modern Warefare 1 on PC, and was estatic for this game. I was even more excited after E3. Once I found out about the dedicated servers being taken away among other items I was furious and will not be buying Moden Warfare 2 at all. I have been gaming on PC for 17 years, but I also own all 3 major consoles. If I play the game at all I will rent it, but will not purchase it.
As I browse through these threads there are quite a few that either blatantly come out and say they will be pirating the game or have images in their signitures of them downloading the pirated copy of the game. I can't be any more clear on my stance than this:
IF YOU PIRATE THE GAME YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THE CONTINUED CONSOLIZATION OF PC GAMING!
As a paying pc gamer it gets old that the developers/publishers blame piracy for why they don't bring games to the PC or severely cut their features compared to other games on the platform. That being said if the pc gaming community's mass response to Infinity Ward screwing them is to pirate the game then they are doing exactly what the developers/publishers say.
So I don't want to hear anyone who has pirated the game complain about the game being consolized. If you want to make a stand then your options are to not buy the game/don't play the game or if you have a console don't buy the game/rent the game. Stealing the game does nothing but hurt the situation, and if you think that stealing it will make any developer/publisher listen to anything you have to say you are wrong.
