Modern Warfare 2 Cheats

• When at the end of the last mission, when you are supposed to kill Shepherd with the knife, after the helicopter crashes stand next to him but do not kill him. After some time, he will begin to say things such as “You know killing me won’t change anything” or “You’re a good warrior”, trying to persuade you not to kill him.
• During the final mission where you must follow Shepherd and attempt to stab him while dazed, do not go near him while he lays against the car. He will say one sentence at a time, slowly, and his final sentence will be “But you were never willing to do what must be done” or something similar. Note: If you get too close to Shepherd, he will smack you against the car. If you go too far, he will cut the speech short.

Select Campaign mode and play “Endgame” in Act 3. After exiting the caves during the speedboat chase, notice the village on the hills to the left coast. You can find a Nazi truck from Call Of Duty 2 behind a low wall near a pontoon and another one farther down at a jetty. Note: You will lose Shepherd by stopping to find the trucks.

First, go online and set your killstreaks to one or more of the following: Care Package, Sentry Gun, or an Emergency Airdrop. Then, go into a session and get the killstreak. Once done, get into a good hiding spot. Throw your red smoke grenade (killstreak) somewhere where you will be able to see it. Then, wait for an enemy to attempt to steal your killstreak but miserably fail. Alternately, if you have unlocked claymores, you can throw your red smoke grenade (killstreak) and set a claymore by it. It is a good way to get a lot of points.

You will almost always have several allied team members on your side throughout the game. The teammates that are invincible are Dunn, Ghost, Foley, Makarov, MacTavish, and Price. Always let them lead the way during battle. While your other teammates can die, they will usually be replaced by reinforcements. Although it is slower, it is much safer to let your teammates lead the way, especially when you are low on health and need to heal.

Hold your grenades for two seconds before throwing them. This will prevent enemies from having enough time to throw them back at you.

When in combat and you need to reload, it is much faster to switch to a pistol or shotgun.

While the riot shield is equipped to one of your classes, you can have defense from the rear when you are holding your secondary weapon. You can now change the direction of defense with your riot shield. This is useful in narrow corridors and stairwells.

 An indie game developer known as CalbiTheZebra has created a wonderful 2D interpretation of Modern Warfare 2, last year’s $1.5 billion behemoth from Activision and Infinity Ward. Though short, the game features loads of variety (snowmobiles! helicopters!) and includes memorable locations and blockbuster moments from the original game. And the best part of all? You can download and play it yourself, for free, RIGHT NOW.

As if the firing of its two bosses, a crazy lawsuit and the exodus of multiple long time staffers weren't hint enough, we now have news from an "insider" that Infinity Ward is pretty much akin to a fish flopping around on land struggling for air.

The insider that Kotaku spoke to had these depressing words about the once great studio: "IW as you know it is dead...and it will continue to crumble. There are a lot more veterans who are definitely going to leave."

He also noted that Activision is pretty much scared out of their minds and has no idea what to do about the issue. The company evidently made mention of a better pay scale, but Kotaku's source was pretty incredulous of that saying, "They fired the two most amazing leaders we've ever seen, and then shafted us all out of a lot of money that was promised to us...there is nothing they can do to gain our trust or respect. And I'm pretty sure they know it now."

Sounds pretty grim over at Infinity Ward. But what if that flopping fish turned into a zombie fish that could shoot lasers and turn into a shark or a tiger and develop the most amazing games ever?

The Studio Behind Modern Warfare Is "Dead," Insider Says [UPDATE] [Kotaku]

That is exactly what another insider at Infinity Ward is suggesting will happen. He tells Kotaku that "yes, it is a shitty situation, but there are two kinds of people left: ones that are sticking it out for the money, and others who want to make something work. We are not dead, we definitely lost original team members, but not all of the talent. When you talk about the people who left, they are the best in the business, but equally everyone at Infinity Ward deserves that same credential. We are here for the long haul of keeping the Modern Warfare name alive, but as your article clearly shows, certain people are still pissed about it. We just had this discussion in our Monday meeting, 'We still have the talent that will get us to where we need to go, and now is the time to find our new leaders.'"

Zombie laser tiger/shark game developing fish!

A couple of weeks ago, gamers/film-makers Corridor Digital posted a Modern Warfare 2 fan film on YouTube that basically blew the entire internet's mind. "Frozen Crossing" has racked up over a million views by capturing the essence of Modern Warfare 2 (and video games in general) in a way that bigger budget Hollywood movies rarely do. So we talked to a couple of the creators of the short, director Niko Pueringer and sound designer Freddy Wong, and got the story on how it was created and what drives fan film-makers. G4: We were totally blown away by your movie. How much time did it take to shoot? Niko: It took about 4 months from beginning to end. G4: So why take all the time to make a fan film? Niko: In 2008 we shot a feature film in Canada, and for most of 2009 we did post-production on that film. After sitting in front of our computers for nine or ten months, we wanted to get back into the swing of things and shoot a short action film. So we were throwing around ideas, talking about what we wanted to do, and at that time, Modern Warfare 2 had come out and we were playing that a bunch, and our style is very similar and very influenced by the game, so we said, “Let’s make a fan film.” With the idea that the movie would be two or three times more popular than a basic action movie that we would do, and we could also incorporate a lot of the styles and influences that we have by referencing the game, so that’s how the idea of making a fan film came about. G4: Wow! You guys shot a feature, huh? Niko: Yeah, it’s called Dark Island, and it’s not out in the US yet. Parts are on YouTube, though. Read more...
