New "Stimulus Pack"
So......Has everybody gone out and bought the new Map Pack for MW2? Hmmmmmmm? I'm waiting for some feedback before I go out and buy it for myself. Please tell me it was worth the price you paid. Judging from the trailer I saw, it seemed like it might be, especially when the new maps appeared to be massive. But I wasn't to keen on two older maps being reintroduced, I think that for the money you are paying you should get ALL new maps, but what do I know.I was on line today (3/30/10) and I was talking to a couple of friends that said that their prepaid ms points cards didn't work when they tried to activate them on the 360 dashboard. I then went to the site site and it said the the servers were messed up and to please try again later.......some how I knew this was going to happen, I just knew it. So now it looks like I'll wait a few days for the storm of users to go away and then I'll try to get the map pack when the servers are not freaking out so much. ==

Wow, were the servers messed up or what!?!?!
I hope today (3/31/10) gaming on XBOX will be a little more stable. Seems like everybody and their brother was on line trying to either download the new stimulus pack or were trying to redeem prepaid MS Points Cards. I know of at least tw friends that purchased cards from two totally different locations (Reno,NV. and Bakersfield,CA.). They purchased the plastic scratch off type cards, and when trying to redeem the points these guys got a msg back from the dashboard saying that the code was not activated and to contact the stores where they puchased them. Umm, let the wild goose chase begin! How can it be the stores fault when the server was choked up to begin with? I can just imagine all these poor gamers wasting time and money going back and forth to the store and yelling at employees that had no clue what was going on in the first place! My son went to the local Game place here that sells the paper type card with the zip strip on the back and after entering the code I got my points posted to my account immediately. Something is screwy with those plastic cards. At around 1:30a.m. his time my friend was finally able to redeem his card and download the game which took him another 1/2 hour. Attempting to get online and play some matches was also a trying experience, what would normally take but a few seconds to jump in a lobby and start playing turned into a wait as long as 1 to 2 minutes and sometimes I had to leave a lobby and restart another match. By 1:30am Pacific time things seemed to have settled down a bit. Hopefully today will be a smoother online gaming experience. and we wont be hearing any more moans and groans from my fellow teammates and my self!

I broke down and bought the Stimulus Pack under peer pressure.
Well I went and did it. Forked out $15.00 for two used maps and three new maps. Sure I didn't have to, but after tons of players urging me on I finally went and did it. Although, personally, I think the pack was way over-priced. I mean, we all bought the game for $60.00. At $3.75 per map the new maps should have been $11.25 because I am of the opinion that all five maps should be new and un-played. Granted there are some folks out there that love the 2 classic maps. I however played the hell out of them and feel they should not have been included in this latest release. I have been hearing rumors that there is another stimulus pack due to be released near the end of 2010. I hope that the developers don't pull this stunt on us again. We should all send complaints to the developers and tell them to stop ripping us off. After all, it's us that keep them in business and with out us they would be out of work and in the street. The new maps IMHO are great I think. What really gets to me is the amount of players that "vote to skip" these maps when they come up. Did you buy the new map pack just to skip the maps? Duh, shouldn't bought them in the first place. Or did you buy the pack under peer pressure like I did? Because I vote to skip like hell on the old maps ;-) Burned by the system again.........Oh well life goes on!

Where In The Manual Does It Say You Cannot Camp?
Some guys just irritate the hell out of me. Especially those that tell people how to play the game. I was playing Hardcore Team Deathmatch this morning and there was this idiot on the same team as me. He sees me camping and this is just after the match started. Said player then goes on telling me to stop camping and if I don't the he is going to shoot me himself. WTF is his problem? I stayed, he killed, I got revenge. I went on to parade myself in front of the enemy so they could shoot me and consequently win the match. We lost. He got mad..........Ask me if I care. Which brings me to my original questions. When guys like him can answer the first four questions with a yes then I won't camp anymore. BTW, since when did you see a sniper rushing around the map looking for a kill? Say no more....
 * 1) Did said idiot buy me the console that I am playing on?
 * 2) Did said idiot buy the game for me?
 * 3) Did said idiot buy my online service subscription?
 * 4) Did said idiot buy my XBOX Live Subscription?
 * 5) And finally who the hell made this idiot God and demand that I play the way he sees fit?

3rd Person Cage Match, What Did Infinity Ward Go And Do Now?
IW has screwed it up again! This time very badly IMO. They got rid of 3rd person cage match in hopes of discouraging boosters. Now I am finding boosters in all kinds of matches. IW should have just left it alone a kept 3rd person cage match in the play lists. Regardless of what many players and IW think, the boosters will not go away just by taking away a mode of play, they will still be here and they will find other ways to boost. Who cares if they boost? So what if they got 10th prestige level 70? People are have been doing it via pc hacking anyway. I don't care about people boosting but now they are doing it in all the game modes. I didn't buy their game, I didn't buy their console, I didn't buy their online account for them, and I didn't pay for their internet connection. So who am I to tell them how to play? If they have a a place to do their boosting without affecting the game play in other matches then I got no problem with it. But now they don't have that place to go and it is affecting everybody else. And another point for I'd like to make, it doesn't take a player with extraordinary skills to reach 10th prestige. It just take lots of time. Eventually everyone regardless of skill will get to 10th prestige if they play long enough and choose to do so. Finally my words of wisdom to IW........ '''STOP SCREWING UP THE GAME FOR THE REST OF US! PLEASE!'''

GameSpot Magazine reportedly is saying that IW could loose as many as 10-20 more key people in the Modern Warfare development team. I would think that Modern Warfare is in serious jeopardy. To think that it will actually make it out in the next two years is wishful thinking.
