    I am very close to being fed up with this game, after a three hour black out from Steam, and now IWnet wont connect properly.

    I realize there are other things to do, but Thursday is my Friday and this sort of messed up my night.

    I am assuming everyone else is having the same problem?

    Damn - I was actually hoping of playing MW2 on PC all night.

    But I went on the X360 and played with my console buddies. Only played like 3 hours and went back on PC and actually played CoD4 -- ahh love dedicated servers.

    You chose to support a game that flies in the face of every gaming value ever established and only now you're fed up? You get what you pay for.

    Ya and I got a great game, ive put in about 200 hours and I have no complaints about the actual game itself, but the methods in which it is distributed. The head people at IW are idiots IMO, but it is still a great game.

    Your just one of the trolls who hasn't played it, yet has everything against it.

    It is back online now though, just irritating that it worked out that way.

    It is the fault of Activision, and not of IW. I don't understand why nobody else sees this. That's way off topic though.

    I've played MW2 with my bro on PC and it is atrocious. Sometimes one of us can't connect to a game, and so we have to keep re-inviting one another to a 'party'. It gets frustrating very fast. Haven't seen it go down yet.
