    Hiya! 
    Anyone excited for probably the best game of the year, side by side with Uncharted 2? 
    I know i am, and i have a couple questions. 
     
    1. I have an Xbox 360 and PS3, so which console i get it on? Please say which one and why, and no fanboy answers plox. 
    2. There is a perk or something, i actually dont know what it is but i saw it in a video and you can steal the class from the person who killed you. Perk? Random? explain if you know. 
    3. Last but not least. Should i spend $90 more for the game with the nightvision goggles, if there are any left :P?

    1. I too am wondering the same thing- may cave and get it for both xD 
    2. That is a 'death streak' perk, if you die a set amount of times without killing anyone, the game allows you a death perk to help you out (kinda like a reverse UAV/Air strike) - one of these allows you to copy the dude that nailed oyu's loadout 
    3. I am tempted, but may use the money to get both copies instead of one with goggles

    You console people confuse me. I can't count number of times I've seen someone ask if they should get a game for 360 or PS3. Who cares? Are they ever any different from each other? Every review I see up for a console game they always slap the exact same score on PS3 and 360 versions, and I refuse to believe they play through both. It basically comes down to which controller you prefer and which console you prefer to play online with, and how the hell is anyone else supposed to answer that for you?
     
    "may cave and get it for both"...jesus fucking christ. No comment.

    Someone's mad. 
     
    I'd say get it for 360 simply because there is a larger online community and the controller is better for shooters. But that's all in preference I guess. If you already have LIVE then why not? But if you don't have LIVE and don't want LIVE, get it for PS3 if you can stand those stick configurations. 
     
    I guess it basically comes down to: 
     Do you want LIVE? If yes, get it for 360. If no, do you like the PS3 controller for shooters? If yes, get it for PS3.

    1.  I would say get it on 360.  More people will have it on the 360, plus the community and friends list is better.  (I don't count bratty spoiled kids in the community)
    2.Whatever
    3. Only if you're an idiot.

    Nah, shooting / blowing up stuff is a concept I don't get excited over anymore in interactive entertainment.

    The first two map packs are going to be a timed exclusive for the 360, if you care about that then get it for the 360. Other than that they are the same.
     
    That one perk is a death streak perk, its called Copy Cat.
     
    If you get the Hardened version you get the original Call of Duty game with it. I would not pay 90 bucks for something I probably will not use.

    1) Xbox 360 (this is not fanboy based). I have heard from a good (real life) friend on Xbox Live that the COD:MW2 downloadable maps are completely exclusive to the 360 only. He has been talking about this game for about a year now so I trust his comment. 
    2) The "Perk" is called Copy Cat you get it when a person kills you 4 times in a row (which I personally think is dumb). 
    3) Na man thats a waste.

    The DLC is only exclusive to the 360 for a set period of time. Probably two weeks.

    1.  i would say it depends on which one u play online with. since i bought a ps3 and played it online to find out that xbox live and psn are the same i now play my games online with the ps3. 
     
    2. i don't think that it was a perk. i think it is something that is added to the game. i'm not sure though u will have to look it up. 
     
    3. i'm getting the night vision goggles. i have money to burn so it is something that i plan on getting myself. i hope that the night vision goggles are promising but something tells me that it won't be so promising that i'm hoping for. u can take that $150 and buy both copies of the game if u want.
