I don't understand why people give TreyArch so much shit. I really liked W@W. MW2 is so disjointed and unbalanced that I don't even play it anymore. I am actually interested in seeing how this plays out. 
 
Activisions (and every other profit seeking company) bullshit aside, I will wait to see how the game looks/plays before passing judgement. Like I said, I really like W@W, but then again I loved MW and don't like MW2 so much. The pressure by Activision does seems to have negative effects on theses games though so we shall see.

it is damn satisfying thats for sure!

" I have a guy on my friends list that just got his 34th plat.  I have 4 of them, but as soon as going for a trophy stops being fun I stop going for it.  I also hate online specific trophies... not cool. "
Theres a bunch of games where the online trophies prevent me from getting the platinum :(... especially games that are more than a week old :( 
 
There is so much multiplayer variety now that the communities are diluted and they fall apart real quick for most games so if I don't play it for 100 hours on the first week then they become impossible to get.

I have 3, and would like to get more... but yeah its tough to both find the time and the patience to play a single game that much. Especially as I have gotten older there is very little time to devote to gaming.

well, as for computer jobs there are a lot, the major groups are: 
 
Various programming jobs (Java, .NET, PHP, etc...)
Database Development/Administration (Oracle, MySQL, MSSQL, etc...)
Network Architecture/Security 
System Adminstration (Windows or Linux/UNIX) 
  
I actually do a mix of all of them, as do a lot of people. 

There are even a lot of certifications. In the tech field some companies will hire you just for having the certs (not that i condone that sort of thing).

oh also, you will spend the entire rest of your life learning new things everyday, getting started in one place/career does not mean you have to settle and be stuck there. 
 
Things change, constantly.
