Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 thread

i dont understand how MS can justify banning someone who bought the game. Not everyone is a knowledgeable gamer, so maybe some kids mom buys the game and the son starts playing it...maybe they dont know about street dates and stuff like that. I can see the store being punished for breaking the street date, but i dont see how you can penalize the consumer.

if its modded and MS knows it, that i can understand

CrimsonGhost is wrong, sorry bro. They didn't ban legit copies for forza and borderlands

llegitimately obtained early copies of Forza Motorsport 3 or Borderlands, being played online over Xbox Live, have resulted in permabans for the accounts of offending players, Microsoft has confirmed. The Microsoft chief of police Stephen Toulouse has said that his enforcement team is inspecting early play and applying permabans only to those with illegitimately obtained early copies of either game. Those who got their copy because a retailer broke street date are safe, Stepto says.


"Don't worry folks, anyone who bought a copy early is ok. In general, if you got a receipt, play away. These are illegit copies we're hitting," Toulouse tweeted around 4:15 pm. U.S. Pacific Time.

So you all know how retarded I am when it comes to paying attention to messages in my inbox on PSN...

I logged in the night before, and I had like 4 messages from this clown claimin to be a IW Rep asking me to forward his message to 150 PSN users. If I had then, I woulda won either money or the game depending on the message. I didn't forward to message to anyone, but I was wondering if anyone else got this message. I don't remember the dude's name but I figure it was some spam being sent around.

MW2 has been ripped already.

Firstly, we would like to point out that MW2Blog does not support piracy in any way.

It’s an unfortunate fact that video games get leaked early, it is also common for images (ISO’s) of games to be released even before the game is available in the shops! Halo ODST, for example, was available illegally three weeks before it hit the shelves. Well it looks like this is going to be the case with Modern Warfare 2.

Still eleven days until the hype train comes to a stop and MW2Blog has received word that Modern Warfare 2 is “already ripped and ready for upload region free PAL“. We can not vouch for the authenticity of these claims but if the images below are to be believed there will be a lot more spoilers in the upcoming days. Special Ops takeover Oilrig and Special Ops sabotage Cliffhanger… hmmm. Looks like we got a stealth Cliffhanger Spec-Ops mission and takeover on a Oil rig

MW2 has been ripped already.

edit: they're going off of "word"

The game is in the process but isn't on newsgroups or torrent yet.
