Modern Warfare 2: quick update

After playing the game since launch I can now say I'm not as impressed with it as I was. There is way to much lag, the hit detection is off key, match making is unbalanced and its a total campers and snipers fest. Also the dread cheating lag switchers are still rampant on it.

The single campaign is to short althought I did enjoy throwing the knife in Shepherds face at the end haha. Also the No Russian mission is great and doesn't deserve all the contrevesy crap its been getting.

If you can pick up the game for around the £30 mark then I say its worh a punt but there is no way the game is worth the £55 RRP price tag.
I'm hoping Infinity Ward will pull their fingers out and release a patch for the above issues. Ideally MW2 should be given dedicated servers instead of relying on P2P on all formats. Activision w\ant to start charging people to play it the greedy b*******. However if the game was given dedicated servers and the price was right I'd consider it although in my opinion online gaming should be free.

Cochlear update



So I finally have an appointment to have a magnet put into my cochlear implant which will be on December 17th. Once that's done I'll be getting the external processor fixed and I'll be able to start using it full time.

Although I will here sounds straight away it takes the brain a long time to make sense of it so it'll be a good year or so before I can actually understand anything. However I will persevere and hopefully one day I will be able to understand things again.

This is something I'm really excited about having done. I'll have to start wearing hats whenever I go out as I don't really like the way the thing looks when attached. But still the benefits of it will be immense.

I'll keep the updates coming.
