It doesn't matter, cause I don't got it.  I have, however, heard really good things about it.  I think the concept sounds really awesome and have been waiting for a good MMOFPS (which this only kind of is), but I didn't want to spend $60 on another shooter I probably wouldn't play much.  From what I've read, there are quite a few bugs with the game, but overall it's really cool.  Also, apparently if you don't have a headset and don't communicate with your squad, you'll be completely unsuccessful, which seems cool, despite the fact that it wouldn't allow me to sit back and pick people off with a sniper rifle all day.

Yes. While Weebs' gaming integrity and schemes may be questionable at times, I don't think there's a question that the homo knows a good game when asked. He may enjoy those storylines too much (SEE: ME2) but I'll respect his game opines.

I got this last night and I played a couple matches that were 32 v. 32. It looks like it could be fun but I was struggling to get anything going kill-wise. The graphics are possibly a little lower end for the PS3 but I think that was done to properly handle the big battles. After a little bit, I should be able to get to the 128 v. 128 matches which should be awesome.

For all intents and purposes, everyone says it's damn near impossible to go it alone in this game like you might be able to in MW2.  I can understand the graphics taking a hit.  I heard it compared to graphics in Battlefied's MP games on 360, which aren't bad at all.

I played the Beta and I really thought it was terrible.  I won't be coming back.

MW2 is still the gold standard.
