Have fun in the Big Apple. That will be an awesome event for sure!

Thanks, hey, can we have a podcast of your Geekend keynote?

Went to tonight's keynote and I'll definitely be attending Saturday. I'd suggest going to Brenda Brathwaite's game design lecture if you can, should be interesting.

@Hallway Giant: Look where I live mate. I'd go if I could :(

Are you sure that it is not New York's Time Square?

Lots of nice MW2 activities to watch. On The Netherlands there are lots of night-openings for Mw2.

Have placed a pre-order because of work the next day so can't be up the whole night long :)

I really like Union Square Events even though the GameStop there is really tiny.  And there isn't a GameStop in TimesSquare.  The closest one to that is Rockefeller Center, and that's in an obscure hallway in the basement.

Regardless, I hope to be there.

Wait... MW2 Launch Event? That was yesterday right? Some peeps I know got their game yesterday or will pick it up today ^^

My pre-order of Modern Warfare 2 just arrived... will I get banned if I play it??? Arghghg, it's sitting there looking at me !

@cloudzilla - No you won't get banned IF youre using a legit console and legit game. open the game you know you wana

I'm at Geekend. Can't wait to hear you talk tonight.

lol @cloudzilla

I thought my pre-order had come today but it was a stupid catalogue that thumped through the letterbox... and as DarkGin87 says you wont get banned if its a legit copy!

You should give in to the temptation and get some practice in before Tuesday :P

@cloudzilla / anyone else who has it already - if you do play, could you let me know what the multi-player modes are? I've been looking for a full list somewhere but can't find anything.

If I would've known about this like last week I would've been there (as I am in the Savannah area - for once!)  Now I'm mad at myself because I failed to tell parents in time...

Either way, I'm looking forward to hearing it tomorrow! (Assuming there will be a show, that is)

@Wingman1977: How is it that you got MW2 early?  Is it legit?

This is great news! I was searching around for info on some sort of launch event in NYC, and this is it. I will be attending the union square event, Major. Should be loads of fun; I'll try to say "howdy" if you pass by me.

Sweet I'll be there even though I bought the game yesterday.

theres a guy on my friends list who has the game already! 11/7 WTF?

@mchiefvs360

You beat me to it....

@Maj

It would be nice to hear your Geekend keynote.  We heard Stepto's security/ban/community feedback a few weeks ago, so why not your keynote?  Perhaps on the end of the next show or a separate Extra Features Podcast?

Laughing at Wingman1977 "Scamstop", never heard that one before... Heh heh...

I've been looking for the right thread. I can't wait for the release of the next game of the year. I really want to know if xbox live is going to anything about all the player's that got MW-2 early. It's totally unfair to everyon else who has waited soooo long for. I feel xbox should either erase the ilegally made achievements and ban the offending players for as long as they have been playing the game prior to the release date. I feel something should be done.

@ Auth3ntic Mp5

Infinity ward is resetting the leaderboards at launch. However, there is nothing you can do about achievement, and it's not as if unlocked achievements hurt anyone.

I hope you can get some footage up of the NY MW2 event on Inside Xbox or something!!
