    For two weeks!!!!
    It is a rumour and I hope it stays as a rumour. I can't believe it. Why the delay?
    This is for the PC version only, by the way.
    They are probably going to say we want to make it better, incorporate DX11 (which is going to have invisible results) bla bla bla....
    That is a big pile of s**t.

    Delay for MW2

    That's some bad news for everyone if it's true.
    But I actually do hope for the 24th release date coz I'll be having exams on 10th of November and I'm pretty sure my exams will finish just before 24th.. :p

    If they are making the game better, then this is a good thing in my opinion.

    Personally I would not mind waiting another year, I still have not started World at War. Plus even though CoD4 was one of my most favorite games, I am not sure if I will like this one. Seems they made it way too complicated now, and also kind of fake. I prefer historical based games, and I think its a shame none of these modern warfare games or even BF series do not follow any real wars, but rather "safe" representations of them.

    That video looked really cool ;) The white house looked as if it had been bombed, and that tall pointy tower was on fire too.
    I'm going to be playing it on the PC also. I would probably end up playing it 1 or 2 weeks after it's official release date anyways...

    Well, considering we haven't had any major "modern" wars I think it's perfectly practical that they've been made up. Besides, I don't think videogames should be made based off ongoing conflicts.

    Also, WaW and MW2 = Not related.

    Yeah, D.C. looked seriously blown to bits, this game is going to be very interesting. Also the "tall pointy tower" is called the Washington Memorial. ;)

    Not a good thing... i don't care if they're making the game better... they can release the updates on a later day in patch form but i want the game! However no need to be worried for now... its only a rumor...
