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.

You know what's crazy? Nobody pointed out the fact that there was boosting going on in the first match. I realized it when they called in a Harrier, Jeff shot it down before it did anything and then the AC-130 came a few seconds later. You see one of Jeff's teammates dying in the same spot over and over again, a sure sign that someone is boosting.

"  Maybe if banks didn't lend maps to people who couldn't afford them, then we wouldn't be in this mess." thats a good sub to the quick look. The whole stimulus thing does sound really weird for a dlc pack.

Which is why I ordered the 360 version for $30 used. If it doesn't arrive today I'll miss all the noobs in the free-Gold weekend. ;_;  Actually I'm probably on par with Jeff up there, so my chances ain't good.

Hmmm from what I caught of it, it sounded like maybe they are contemplating moving out of the office. Or an elaborate April Fools' joke.

the maps seems cool and all, but i can't justify paying 1/4 of the price of the game for just 3 new maps and 2 old ones.

The moving out of the office part is probably a April Fools joke, I don't know but the "uhm, yeah" part, at 28:56, just before Jeff states that they're moving sounds like a "Yeah, we should pull this prank now" if you know what I mean.

The old maps do have slightly new textures and all of the graphics in MW2 including lighting were added to them, it's harder to tell in this video though but it feels much better than in CoD4

God, I remember Overgrown.
 
Not getting the maps, but I might just pop in MW2 for some Double Exp.
 
Some quick googling said it'll last from the 2nd to 5th (well, 1st now with the DLC thing), glad since I'm about to go to sleep, it'll be around for later.
 
I also love blowing up killstreak rewards like you Jeff.

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.

Actually wait...now thinking about it, they've subtly been talking about moving for a long time, im recalling a lot of it on the bombcast...
 
one thing that springs to mind is the talk about leaving that swedish fish bomb thing in the office, implying they will leave it there.
 
so yeah, im fairly sure, they're moving out, which sucks, many many fond memories of that basement starting out, but change is healthy and good, especially when it's not me having to do most of the changing.

@Death_Burnout: yeah, I remember them talking about moving too.  
 
Since the Whiskey-Duders had a recent money-injection, I am glad for the GB-crew to get rid of this small basement. Let's face it 5 - 6 Personas in such a small cabin can be smelly at times, and it is really hard to play/write reviews or be on the phone with PR, while others have to do a video at the same time etc? 
 
I would be happy if they are allowed an office closer to where they live. Sure, we all will be sad if Ryan and Jeff stop doing the commute iPhone ustreams home, but they would be glad. 
 
Let's see.

Except that 2 of those maps are old maps so your math isn't quite right. I don't want to play old maps, I played them before.

it is kinda annoying that the people who review the games for me are so awful at the games. Ryan sucked at GOWIII and jeff blows at MW2. How can you seriously blow at MW2? With an LMG? Change career path please. Maybe just review side scrolling mystery games...

How do you suck at GoW? You just punch the buttons until everything dies.
 
Also, they review games for a living. That means they play a game enough to review it, then they stop playing it and move on to other game. Not to mention playing + talking means you're not concentrating on the game.

Good fucking grief, go back under a bridge you useless troll. Being good at playing a video game has nothing to do with being able to professionally review them.  
 
Last time I checked, people played video games for fun, not to show off impressive kill/death ratios, but because of idiots like you and probably more than 50% of people who play MW2, that has clearly changed.

They don't spend time getting good at games. I have the same play style, I playmost stuff that comes out, beat it, and move on. A master at nothing, really. They don't have time.

Christ, Jeff even said it in the quicklook, he can't devote his whole day to playing just one game, even though he would like to with MW2, he's got a job where he has to learn about, play and review a ton of other games, jackass.

Does anyone know if they fixed the knife thing yet? I basically gave up playing this about a month ago when people were stabbing me at the top of stair cases and were clearly no where near me.
