Yes, this is the release day and would hope to see it available on the shelves soon - been waiting for it for some time now.

General

- IW partnering through Steam is what you will see in the future. Matchmaking is not through Steam, but IW.NET is run in conjunction with Steam.

- GSP's will no longer be renting out servers.

- No PunkBuster. VAC will be used as an anti cheat.

- Retail distribution: Pre-orders will get a disk. Or you could order from Steam.

- DLC may now need to be paid for - not confirmed.

- Piracy was only a small reason for going to IW.NET - not the whole reason.

Clans

- No more clan servers. Private matches, replace clan servers.

- Listen servers will connect to each other.

- IW.NET/Steam will replace the community server admin

Competitive Gaming

- Competitive gaming has changed forever.

- It might be possible in the future for IW engineers to load a "competitive" setting on IW.NET, but it is far from a guarantee. It might also never happen.

Modding

- Modding the game is now very much in question. Fourzerotwo had no info on modding. However, it appears that there will be no mods or maps for MW2.

- Modding in SpecOps? Unknown.

And if you buy the PC version over steam, it does not unlock until Friday....

So anyone selling?

So anyone selling?

Once registered with Steam (which is necessary even for single player installation) the game cannot be re-installed. So this kills the second-hand market, unless a hack appears.
