    Just starting to find some time to get back into my gaming a bit which is real nice (I find it very relaxing running around shooting people !).

    For those who are also CoD fans you can find me under the name Darph Bobo playing for the guys from the |SAWB| clan (they seem to be based in Stoke but hey-ho :p ) and I'm also hosting and setting up their new website over at www.sawb.co.uk

    If you indulge in a bit of CoD you're welcome to pop along and find us - it's nothing too serious :biggrin

    ... and please be gentle of the site criticism ! (It's early days !)

    I still prefer CoD1 though the clan doesn't have any servers for that. We play UO, CoD2, MW and WaW

    I can't get on with all the darn prestige bits and ranks etc (too complicated at my age :p )

    I'm considering getting CoD: MW2, however just not sure if for the xBox or PC yet. Will have to think about that one...

    Popped over to the site, not bad, it's very good imo. Keep up the good work :thumbleft

    Really tidy site mate.

    Never really got into online gaming until MW2 - used to get too fed up with getting shot in the back of the head within 2 seconds of spawning.

    Anyway, maybe I don't get it, but is it the case that PC online gamers can 'cheat' by adding mods to their game, which you can't really do with consoles?

    I saw a video on youtube where some guy was playing MW2, and had basically given himself x-ray vision (not talking thermal here) and could see all opponents highlighted wherever they were.

    Must say, that sort of thing spoils it for me.
    I always feel slightly ashamed after an online match where I'm chuffed that I managed to kill 3 people, then see that nobody else in my 'team' killed less than 30.

    Oh well.
    Maybe I should take up gardening...

    Xbox for me. I prefer consoles to PCs for this kind of online gaming - evens the playing field...

    Played and completed teh single player CODMW2 weeks ago. Only played Multi player today for first time. I have played loads of Online games in the past and still prefer dedicated servers to the way COD MW2 does it, but it works and was quick enough.

    I went to lvl 4 in matter on an hour, only died about 150 times but i did manage 90 kills as well so not too bad a ratio. Its quick its simple, and its fun, so will try playing again later.

    I just miss being able to play as a clan on one server, playing the same people regulary. The new way seems just pot luck.

    Yeh the PC community slated the developers for that but console sales are just more lucrative I suppose. Shame

    MS did try a crossover platform game (can'r remember now what it was called) when Vista came out. I remember seeing it demo'd at MS in Reading.

    Pity more developers don't do it but again, they tend to give features to consoles and cut down a PC version :(

    Something which annoys the hell out of me. I don't want to spend my life playing bad console ports! and there is no room for an xbox 360, where would I put the server then?
