BASH #115 - MW2 Behind the 8-ball?
BASHandSLASH has a new podcast up that was made with the community chipping in, quite a cool idea. The two main topics that were discussed were MW2, is IW behind schedule, and the second topic of PBBans and their recent attacks and shutdown. Listen below for some extra info on both MW2 and PBBans.

Well, what is your opinion after hearing about these points? Even just reading the little bit above, what do you think? Is IW behind for MW2? There have not been very many details released about the PC version of the game. Is there merit to that, or is it purely speculation?

hy has Infinity Ward and the game's producer, Activision, not mentioned the PC version of their upcoming game? Why has the PC SKU been left completely out of their marketing blitzes? Has something gone awry with the PC community’s flavor of CoD?
IW is one of the most technically competent video-game developers in the world. It is expected that MW2 will make more money than any video-game before it. That type of pressure ican make even the best wilt. So...are there technical problems we don't know about with the PC game? Have they even started working on it?
Some recent events have made many in the community speculate that MW2 is behind schedule:
• We know that IW had troubles incorporating co-op into MW2
• IW recently shelved the idea of providing CoD gamers with either a beta or a demo
• News of a "community day" seems to have been put off
• Rob Bowling, IW's communication director is a no-show at Gamescom
Is the first IW CoD-release without Grant Collier directly steering the ship, going in the wrong direction?
That and more (including the sinking of PBBans) on this program.
