Quick Look: Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package

Maybe if banks didn't lend maps to people who couldn't afford them, then we wouldn't be in this mess.

Sit back and enjoy as the Giant Bomb team takes an unedited look at the latest video games.

Yeah he said they are moving, i dunno why everyone is saying "did he say they are moving?", yup clearly you can rewind as easy as me :) He said best thing about leaving this office will be better internet. Why are they moving? I bet they will say next podcast...
 
My guess is that TESTED is gonna need to be near the computer guys upstairs? Where as Giantbomb could really be anywhere (although how will they get their PC Quick Looks done!?)

I don't feel like getting it. $15 is a lot for 5 maps, since COD4 had 4 for $10.

"Sci Fi is next. BF2142 (or maybe PlanetSide) was the forerunner to the upcoming style."

What about a Mass Effect themed FPS?  I know ME is a TPS but it would give people a chance to play as factions other than human.  "
I would love to see a sci-fi shooter. However, personally . . . I don't want it to be like HALO. HALO is good at HALO, so I don't want something that feels about the same.  
 
Although many would most likely disagree with me , but personally , I feel a lot of what would make me pick up a sci-fi shooter will based on more than just gameplay. I would want really strong art design. I don't want the armor people wearing to look like the typical stuff you see from the Quake, Unreal, and Gears of War camp of art design. I don't want Halo art design either (not that it's bad, its just that Bunji does it already). I also don't want a bunch of artist flopping open Shirow's "Intron Depot" books and copying Appleseed stuff either. 
 
I would love to see a sci-fi military shooter where the approach to it is just like MW2. Try to go as realistic as possible. Which of course will be much harder because as you design a world for the near future, its mostly just theoretical.  
 
If they hire this guy to do the design work

...to do the design work (and it's a good game), I'll buy it and play it like crazy.

This vid looks really fun... maybe i'll actually try a MW game at some point. I'm pretty afraid I would be insta-murdered over and over tho.

I will never see the appeal of these f' ing games.
Same shit over and over and over.
Fuckin' robots without jobs play this day and night
thinking they're badass... when in reality,
if they fired a real gun, they would piss in their pants.
 
ugh!

@BeefWaterfall:
Actually, on that thread it might be interesting to see a hyper-futuristic sci-fi Call of Duty game. The only obvious thing that needs to be addressed is it ACTUALLY GETS PLAY TESTED PROPERLY.

Modern Warfare 2 is pretty broken right now and it doesn't look like it'll be fixed anytime soon. It's actually totally game breaking online. So many cheats!

"5 maps for $15 = $3 per map 3 maps for $10 = $3.33 per map  What is the big deal? You brought it on yourself by buying the stupid, and overpriced $10 map packs. What did you expect?  You can blame the idiotic Halo fanboys for buying the overpriced $10 map packs back in the Halo 2 days with their mother's credit card. "

Wow im glad at least someone else can do math besides me lol.  And besides if u actually have to complain about $15.00  u have bigger problems than playing call of duty, u need to go back to school and get a better job or something cuz thats pretty bad.

I rarely played any other mode in MW1 and 2 besides team deathmatch. I'd occasionally peak into the other modes, but team deathmatch is the meat and potatoes.

Wow, "Storm" is clearly an homage to L4D2's "Hard Rain." There's a LOT in common.
