Yeah, it's just like that...
In yesterday's links, Destructoid had a guest op-ed on IW's ultraviolent leaked vid. In the spirit of Point/Counterpoint, Destructoid has a view from the opposite camp. On to the links...
- The Modern Warfare 2 Dedicated Server Petition has reached 177,000 sigs.
- Meanwhile, it's predicted that MW2 will clear $500 million US during launch week. No wonder IW is wiping its collective ass with the PC petition.
- PCWorld has an article about the leaked vid, wondering whether the gameplay depicted is artistic.
- The Escapist has an article on the leaked perks & killstreaks.
- GameSpy has an article up on the disabled party chat in MW2 Xbox Live multiplayer.
- Fourzerotwo has tweeted that NCIS writer Jesse Stern also worked on Modern Warfare 2's storyline.
- Even the World Series has MW2 fodder, as Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels and Yankees players Nick Swisher and Jerry Hairston will team up for a NYC Modern Warfare 2 launch event. No word on whether A.J. Burnett will be there to shoot his team-mates claymores and accidentally shoot them in the back of the head.
- Destructoid has added an article quoting the ESRB on the violence in the leaked vid.
- GameDaily warns of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 phishing scams.
- Gamasutra has an interview with Marc Laidlaw and Eric Wolpaw, key writers at Valve, discussing the creative process.
- Digg: Gizmodo link says that Doom is now up and runnable on the IPhone.
- Trailer for Shattered Horizons, a PC space, zero-gravity FPS available on Valve's Steam.
- Joss Whedon (Firefly, Serenity, Buffy, Angel, Dollhouse) is making a tongue-in-cheek bid for the Terminator franchise, which is up for auction.
