The guys from destructoid have published a new video showing the "Fast Motion, Ice Skating Glitch" in Modern Warfare 2. The video was Captured while playing Sabotage on Modern Warfare 2 on the X-Box 360.
There's always time for stories about glitches in Modern Warfare 2. Yes, once again 2009's most popular shooter has been exploited by people who feel accomplished by cheating in videogames. The latest bug arrived in very much the same way as the last one -- it's a PC mod that has been smuggled onto the Xbox 360 version.
This new glitch grants players the ability to move in fast-motion, and players get the feeling that they're skating on ice while they move. Running gives players about five times the normal speed. This glitch is most commonly found on Sabotage games, so be warned if that's your preferred gametype.
Every glitch uncovered in Modern Warfare 2 is yet another point scored by those in favor of dedicated servers. It really seems that letting Infinity Ward handle everything did not make for a more secure and fun gaming experience. Not that we expect IW to care, given the amount of bank they made.

If you own a WD TV live box, you might want to think twice about flashing it's firmware unless you want a paper weight.
Not only do you have to protect yourself from any number of nefarious online threats, you also have to watch your back as well. You never know when a friend may be readying to ‘accidentally’ plunge in a knife.
Such is the sad fate for some of Western Digital’s WD TV Live boxes. Seems a firmware update for the device, V1.102.12, has ‘bricked’ some units--leaving only a blank screen for frustrated owners to view. Western Digital is aware of the problem and has pulled the update from its web site.
Western Digital claims that only a small percentage of WD Box Live users have been affected. Those with incapacitated units are advised to contact Western Digital’s customer service. (Affected commenters at Engadget suggest taking the unit to Best Buy and making an exchange rather than hassle with an RMA.)"

Walmart is having a pre-black Friday sale this Saturday Nov. 7th that includes an xbox 360 arcade for $200 which includes a $100 walmart gift card. This card can be used to go back to the store and pick up MW2. Heck with some of the great deals that will be had on black Friday you might be able to get quite a bit with that $100 gift card. Heck maybe MW2 and a nice DVD player. But be warned, this will most likely be limited to a small number per store so to take advantage you should get there when they open the doors. You can see on the pic above it says at least 10 per store so this is a clue that they will have a small limit to how many of these they will give away for this deal, after that it is just to get people in the store. I would suggest having someone help you out and hit a different store at the same time so you have a better chance of getting one.
Microsoft has given developers the option to control chat options while playing in Multi-player games. Modern Warfare 2 will be using this system. When you are in party chat and try to get into a Public Multi-Player online match, You will be given the choice to switch to game chat or to remain in Party chat and not play. This system is intended to put a stop to people in party chat on opposite teams informing on locations of other players. Basically A spy on your team telling his buddy on the enemy team where you guys are in a map. This is expected to start showing up in many online games including Gears of War."

Yes it is true, Confirmed by Fourzerotwo on his blog just after some leaked footage hit the net and resulted in a handful of users being suspended from youtube.
The above graphic is not MW2. rather a screen from SOCOM Navy Seals.
Some of you may love the Idea or a socom style 3rd person view, some may hate it, but do not get too excited. The option for 3rd person is only available in Private matches. The 3rd person view is something that is turned on or off in the host players game rules area. If turned on, all players will be in 3rd person. You can not have some players in 3rd and others in 1st, Its all or none.
IW has hinted that a new trailer will be aired soon showing off this feature.
Another confirmation by Fourzerotwo is that create a class will be accessible offline. You are no longer required to log into live for weapon class editing. "

The new trailer set to debut during this week 's NBC's Sunday Night Football broadcast of the game between the San Diego Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers (8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT). The image Above is an exclusive still from the trailer.
The game's first full trailer was revealed during another sports event, the NBA Playoffs in May on TNT. This one, which will include all in-game footage, kicks off a multi-million dollar promotional campaign, the developer says.
If you miss the Trailer, No Worries. We will have it posted here very soon after. So be sure to check back often.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction looks as if it is shaping up to be one of the great games of 2010. Below is a commented Walk through of the beginning mission of the new Sam Fisher adventure. In this installment Sam is on a personal quest to find the killer of his daughter.
The video starts out in a grimy mens room where Sam begins his interrogation on one of the thugs that will lead him to the man responsible for his daughters death.
Things to note in the video below....
The new Projection system that will show projected images of memories and game text in real time, projected directly on the surrounding environment.
Sams/players total control of just how you will go about your interrogation an the bad guys.
Notice the seamless transition from the bathroom scene to the next level in the city. It is a very smooth and cinematic transition, lets hope all the cuts between levels are as such.
The new "MARK AND EXECUTE" system. you can mark your enemies then when the timing is right, give Sam the OK to execute the attack on his own, or you can go it manually.
Listen for the Cat at 3:19, its the little things that make games great!
New Magnetic Pulse grenade that can take out all the lights in a room at once.
A new "WHITE SILHOUETTE" system will show a ghost image of where you were seen last by any living enemy, this will give you an idea where they will converge in an effort to get to you. Allowing you to set up in the best position for an ambush if you so wish.
Looks like the snake cam has been replaced with what looks like either a mirror to look under the door or some type of new Tech that lets you look through solid doors.
Sams night vision goggles are not in this video but I believe they will be used in the game. In this scene Sam gets caught by the government, Perhaps he gets the gear from them later in the game.
Well It was bound to happen. So here it is. The full achievement list for Modern Warfare 2. The list itself gives much insight to new features we can expect from the new game, such as animals we can now shoot, how many Special Ops game maps will be available and so on. See the complete list Here
