So someone, Jairo, has already walked into the thread to say how stuff MW2 is? Steam ruins everything. Simple. --- Quote from: Jairo on May 06, 2012, 02:33:32 PM ---third: why didn't you just buy it on steam --- End quote --- Download time maybe? |

If you got it for any multiplayer experience, you came a bit too late. The master server is still up, but the list is almost loving barren of servers. You'll get lucky sometimes and end up in a full match, but that's after waiting 10-15 minutes for it to find a damn server. |

I remember many years ago, I tried to return a PC game to GameStop. The guy only took one back, and he really only did because we had the receipt. Although those games weren't key activated back then - It was more about ripping the game than using a key. Point being, any chain game store shouldn't be buying or selling used PC games. |

I'm sure I have enough authority to call mw2 stuff considering I've owned it since its release but hey if you want to become ignorant apes, don't look my way |

It's possible you got unlucky and have someone there who steals game keys from stores, and puts back the games. I know, we have one here, so I avoid buying PC games from stores, even if it's a new copy, because I might grab one that the key was used from. |
