If so give me a couple days (out of town for work) and I'll def. pick it up.
My PSN name is the same as my forum/pit name.... mca47
came out last night. I'll send ya friend invite
MUCH better than I had anticipated. I was really bummed it was going back to WW2 as opposed to Moder War. However, the gameplay is tremendous, graphics are awesome, and the kills are MUCH more graphic. Very realistic feel (example you need to re load the guns more often) due to smaller clips back then. It has taken time to get used to this. The "release the dogs" feature is killer and better than the choppers in cod4 IMO. The dogs keep respawning so if you are able to "release them" you will get alot more kills than you did with a chopper in cod4. Also, being able to hop in the Tanks is fun but only works well if your teamates support you and jump on board and work the "gunner"
I've only played multiplayer online so far and will give the single player a go tonight.

I was referring to NCAA Football... but it's a really fun game. I only have that one game but I play it as much as I get a chance to. I like playing online against other people, but I liked the online platform better for PS2 because it's easier to track your achievements than it is on PS3- but that might be me missing something because I just got my PS3 a couple weeks ago and have yet to figure everything out
Cool, can't wait to pick it up!
I have so many damn games I'm playing right now though...
NHL '09
LittleBigPlanet
Socom Confrontation
Want to get Resistance 2, COD (World at War)
Ugh!
Anyway, as touringfan stated, the graphics are good and the some of the kills are extremely violent and brutal. There were a couple of times where I ran over a mine and it blew off my leg, leaving only splintered bone and ripped flesh where there used to be a functioning leg. Another time I was shot with a double barrel shotgun and it literally blew off the entire bottom half of my body.
The weapons are okay but since this is another WW2 game, there's probably not going to be anything that you haven't worked with before in another game. If you use rifles rather than machine guns get used to pulling out your side arm quickly and using it to finish off an enemy with it. Touringfans mentioned this earlier also but because of the era of the weaponry the clip sizes are smaller so be weary of that.
I only had the opportunity to play the beta version so I realize I can't give a full opinion on the game that covers everything, especially the single player mode. But even so, I can't help but feel "Oh, wow. ANOTHER WW2 game." Even though they branched out and included the battles with Japan in it (by the way, from what I've read the japanese soldiers fight completely differently from the nazis. So atleast it'll be a different fight.) I can't help but feel that it's been done before, over and over and over and that doing it again just won't be all that rewarding. Moving on, the beta only had 3 maps and each was very fun, with Roundhouse particularly having a lot of sniper positions and hiding spots. But with the same perks and challenges it feels like Treyarch is making more of a expansion pack for Infinity Wards game so COD players will be happy until Infinity Ward changes up the system than trying to create their own game.
But like I said, I had fun. And even though I only played beta I still like it a lot more than fucking Battlefield: Bad Company but I won't get into that here
Are these problems unique to me or happens to everyone???

Is it any different than COD4 (as far as inviting people)?
I haven't picked it up yet, but those that I have spoken to who have it haven't had any problems with servers.
Yeh it isdifferent. Doesn't have that party invite thing.

Yeah, I'm still playing LittleBigPlanet and NHL '09.
Will have to find time for the new COD!
How are the maps?
Fun game! I went right into online multiplayer and proceeded to get my ass destroyed! LOL! Granted I haven't played COD4 in some time so there was a bit of getting used to the "old" controls.
Online was great, but so far I think the co-op feature has been the best.
Is the co-op online only or is it splitscreen also?
I think both.
I think I read that you have to go through the entire single player campaign before it becomes available. Which is kinda defeats the purpose but whatever.
Have you played battlefield: bad company?
Nope. I've only played a level or two in single player and I played co-op (all levels) with some friends yesterday.
COD5
Resistance 2
Tomb Raider
Mirror's Edge
Its just like I'm 12 again...
I am assuming you've played COD4?
There's a demo for Mirror's Edge too. I didn't care too much for it.
I hear R2 is really good! I didn't like the first one so I'll probably pass, but most people seem to like it.
I loved COD4, but know if I got COD5 right away, I will never pick up MGS or GTA again.
I'll have to check the Mirror's Edge demo before I buy.
I still haven't beaten GTA either.
I never played Resistance 1, but have read reviews that said it's pretty amazing. I have a buddy trying to talk me into getting it. Like others, I'm pretty busy with other games (COD5, NHL '09, LittleBigPlanet, and Socom) and I too haven't beat GTA4 yet.
So what's the deal with Mirror's Edge? What's it all about? I saw a commercial on it, and it looked slick but again I have no idea what the premise is.
