Violence in Videogames: Modern Warfare 2, The Latest Scapegoat

Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling tweeted not too long ago that if anyone wanted a spoiler-free experience, they should opt for a total media blackout up until the launch of Modern Warfare 2, on November 10th. Headlines are already linking the scene in the video to violent acts in videogames, what they do to people and what they make people do. I wouldn't be surprised if I was hearing or reading – in the near future - about school-killings or downtown-mayhem-murders done by some guy, and the whole situation being blamed on videogames. And I'll tell you what, not only is that a load of bulls***, but it also goes to show that media these days don't seem to have anything better to report on, so why not stir things up by writing about videogame violence, again? Let alone do research on the matter.

you guys should see penn and teller bullshit: video games

people know what real and whats fake very early in life or we would all still believe in santa claus.......yes hes not real :(

Unfortunately the sheep in this world will believe anything they are spoon fed from mainstream media.

Global warming, game violence and drugs are all highly misrepresented and governments rely on the fact people accept things without research. Why do you think they put Fluoride in the water?, to keep people dumbed down (google it, it is real). We have toothpaste to do the job.

A dumbed down sheep like society is easy to control and manipulate.

Movies are more realistic yet I dont see them being banned or blamed as much as video games.

MW3 shouldn’t leave Modern Warfare 2’s overlooked playlist behind

Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood258d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G258d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade258d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

fr0sty258d ago (Edited 258d ago )

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality258d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator257d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G258d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy85258d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai258d ago (Edited 258d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G258d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo258d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg258d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast258d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
