Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 PC Releases Late(r)
Clarke | 3:59 PM on 11.05.2009 3 comments


I really feel I have to reiterate a previous blog I had made. I know gaming blogs don't really know much about PC gaming and I feel that's a bit hazardous to how well information is reported.

I know there's been such a media blast over Modern Warfare 2 and the PC version has been getting lots of negative attention but there is also one point I haven't really seen anyone talk about yet.

It has been stated that MW2 will have full Steamworks integration...
...the listing on Steam slates the release date for November 13th...
...even a mod on the steam forums confirms CD keys are tied to Steam.


Now the Steamworks deal had to have been in development for a while yet in mid October Infinity Ward Community Manager Robert Bowling states there will be no delay for the PC version.

Retailers will may be selling the disk version on November 10 (Amazon Lists "November 10") but all PC gamers will have till the 13 is a $60 drink coaster.

The fact you can buy a useless disc for 3 days is going to piss off whoever bought the game retail.

Which is ironic, since they are the ones most likely to not know about the shit that IW have lumped on the PC crowd.

The funny part is you don't even need the disk. Just put in the code and preload.

At the steam store page on the advertisement bar it says "November 12th" but it's steam page says November 13th. Funny how Activision/Blizzard was going all "oh no it'll be simultaneous release!" which I suppose didn't mean "simultaneous access".
