Ditto. That would probably be the coolest pre-order/limited/premium edition bonus ever.

It would also have been the biggest controversy if it was really that.

fuck this...i'm fueled by the asshats at EA and Harmonix/Activision...we have all these damn games that try to suck people in w/ stupid peripherals. I'm getting sick of it. No way in hell i'm gonna spend another $40 dollars on some controller that i'm only going to be able to use for this one game. first the prestige edition...now this?!?!

I think the important thing to remember is that this is still gunna be a regular controller. probably THE controller to use for most FPS- fine tuned for COD use.

Or another plastic piece of crap from activision, discuss

That's the beauty of capitalism; you can by outlandish swag, or not. Either way it's the consumers decision.

I would go with concave, too. I probably wouldn't buy it unless it offered a big improvement over the original 360 game pad though.

The d-pad could use some improvement, but that wouldn't be enough for me to buy a new pad. It would have to be wireless, rechargeable, have different button placement, and be of good quality. Some Art and a better d-pad won't cut it for me.

I want that controller. Imagine that controller with 1:1 motion sensing... no doubt it would be superior to an actual Xbox or PS3 controller.

And next you want it to start making firing noises!

And then you want it to start firing painball/bb rounds!

And then you want it to shoot real bullets at real people!

See, that's what I'm hoping for with the goofy looking wand things that they are making for PS3. An I'm sure they could figure out how to do it with Natal too. Kinda rinds me of that video with the guy with the mullet that had the gyro mouse/gun/LCD controller.

you know what, let's take the idea farther. Let's get the guys that did Virtual Boy (minus Gunpei - rest in peace you genius) another shot, and throw them in the mix. 3D VR MWF2 with head tracking and 1:1 motion tracking M4 that transforms into other guns. I would not only buy and play this $600 mess of peripherals, but everything in my living room would eventually be broken from me running into it, my girlfriend would leave me, and then I'd end up back here complaining that it's not supported by enough developers, and Resident Evil 5 would be so cool with it XD

but it would be awesome.

Errr 1:1 gun controlling does not equate to being superior to a standard controller.

If anything you'd have to be quite good at general firearm discipline (ya know, holding it right, not hurling your body side to side, etc.) and knowing the kind of people that play CoD 4 that is doubtful they'd have that kind of patience.

Chances are you'd get your ass kicked using something like that.

Jdre: might not be better than mouse + kb, but as long as you're not physically disabled, it's gotta be better for aiming.

360 controllers already have concave (innie) stick-tops. Convex (outie) stick-tops would be like the PS controllers.

Watch it end up as normal Xbox 360 controller with a COD: MW2 casing.

Exactly, maybe with a tiny modification to make a few buttons easier to access for MW2 only, making it useless for any other game.

Sttiiillll haven't played the first one. Kinda want to, but it's stiiiiiil $60 for PS3. And I accidently saw the ending, which sucks, because it probably would have been an awesome ending to see, you know, after playing the game :(

Aww man, you missed out on a good single player experience. The online mode has a ton of replayability if you are into online shooters. If you really want it, New egg has the GotY with free shipping for 47 bucks. one of the better deals out there.

You know, I'm sure it's probably worth the dough, but I cut my games budget wayyy back. I got tired of getting burnt out on buying games new at $60, only to see them on sale for $30 a couple weeks to a month later. A Best Buy sale that had Dead Space for $30 comes to mind, as well as Bionic Commando for $30 at EB recently. Then games like this - that have been out for over a year - are still $60 retail! It's honestly a big reason I'm thinking of hunting down a Jasper 360. It would probably pay for itself in games savings over a year.

...and I must have Shadow Complex...

I will play Modern Warfare eventually. If I'm able to borrow and instLl my buddy's copy on my laptop, I will.
