What really stinks about all of these things is that MOST software 
companies. Including Microsoft. publish  fixes for issues with
their  
software, specially when it comes to security holes.
I mean 
you  are publishing games that are SOLD
that 
contain flaws 
that 
prevent 
you from truly
doing what you paid 
for. 
This is not just the 
case of
COD2. 
It has been the same 
/>problems with the ENTIRE
COD  line.
I wish 
I could 
do something
about it, but like 
everybody here. Unless we come 
/>together we are toast. Specially 
since they won't release 
COD3 for 
PC yet. 
I am sure if they publish 
it. We are
going to have the 
SAME old issues: no 
PB, no this not
/>that, bugs here bugs 
there.
It all comes down
to 
 the persons doing 
the QA and the director
of 
development. Which I 
know, but I 
can't publish
out of a 
courtesy. Look in the game's box that 
the game
came in.
