  • Zombies stinks of rip off this year..... Only one map unless you paid £20 extra for the Hardened Edition.

    It's still pretty good though.

    (Looking a few posts upwards it seems Infinity Ward have invaded MSE too!) :rotfl:

    Complete all the campaign and you then unlock the next zombie map. This was the same on waw. I think to unlock the 3rd zombie map you have to complete campaign on hard, not sure, my son hasn't done that bit yet.:D

    So there is only 1 zombie level to start with on the regular version?

    But then you get another after completion of the game? (annoying btw - only bought it for online)

    And another for completing on hardened?

    What about the original levels from WAW? I heard they would be included.

    Delivered from Very at last - I'll take a day (or 2) late for the fantastic price of £23.95. Time to kill zombies!!!

    Zombie mode is an added extra just like it was in W@W. The money you pay really pays for the Single player and proper multiplayer modes. Playing these gets you incredible value for oney. Most games have about a 6 hour lifespan but COD is so addictive.

    Zombies was an extra in WAW but with Blops it was more built into the release hype
    I bought mine for £36 odd in Asda, those who may be waiting for the prices to drop will be disappointed as the old Modern Warfare and MW 2 remain highly priced (and deservedly so) to this day.

    Very correct. New copies still retail high but you can get a second hand copy for around £15 now.
    And for the record Back to the Future is hardly a "masterpiece". Grow up.

    But you are very wrong there!!! :o

    - Yes.
    - Yes (or you can use a "cheat" code).
    - Not sure.
    - Only if you bought the hardened edition. It'll probably be DLC soon enough though.

    My advice would be buy now sub £30 if you want a new copy. Used = as above, wait until some people hate it compared to MW2.
  • Well I just want to say thank you for saving me some cash during xmas shopping! I was looking for two copies for my boys and two xbox live 3 month memberships. After scouring through the net I found this and the offer runs untill Sunday.
    I had to ring customer services because the tesco ent website doesn't say it apart from on an ad on banner. - And you have to signed in to find it.

    Also made me chuckle the service centre had a fire alarm go off whilst I was calling.

    Apparently to unlock the other zombie map you don't need to complete it on hard. My son played it last night but it isn't like the usual zombie map.

    I unlocked the other 2 maps last night with the R2/L2 'cheat' - very easy to do.
    If you don't know. Look down at your hands when sat in the chair on the main menu.
    Press O I think.
    Press R2/L2/R2/L2 a few times and your cuffs will break.
    Stand up and walk to the computer and enter the code (I forget what this is - 4 digits though and enter)

    One is a 'proper' zombie level and the other is a mini 2D game - quite fun though.

    I am looking forward to the older levels coming back. I presume they have updated for the new guns? And maybe a few new bits and bobs?
  • Hi,

    Bought a copy from Sainsburys that i don't need any more (brother bought a copy as well!!!).

    If I return it to Sainsburys (as it's unopened) will I get the £27.99 I paid for it or the £37.99 pre discount price?

    cheers for your help

    you would have to take it back with your receipt to get a refund and they will only give you back the price you paid of 27.99

    my advice is to wait . this game isn't a patch on Modern Warfare 2 (multi player ) IMO .

    when more people find this out they will flood Ebay with copies . my copy went on four hours after buying . i'm not bothering to waste time investing in a inferior multi player game , when Modern Warfare 2 still cuts the mustard .

    it has some very good ideas , in Wager matches , customisation and currency and there are loads of weapons . BUT the Maps are poor , the graphics are no where near the standard of MW2 , the guns don't feel right , grenades pop rather than boom , sniper rifles are like pea shooters and the overall multiplayer game play feels like a cheap sequel .

    it's a bit like the movie Back to the future 2 . alright and adequate as a stand alone , but not a patch on the master piece that was before it .

    Infinity Ward will hopefully come back and make Modern Warfare 3 in 12 months . in the mean time i'm off back to MW2
