[cod] (cod5) WaW Master Server Down...again?

[Tyson]

I know about that.

But when the game asks "Would you like a short cut on your desktop" you
expect it to be there. Not have to hunt through the start menu to find them.

Also when a game allows you to chose were in the start menu to place the
start menu icons you kind of expect them to be put in the folder to tell it
to not Windows default.

On the shortcut 'issue' .. They are now placed in the Games Explorer 
(Start menu > Games) .. afaik this is intended behaviour for all "Games 
for Windows" branded games
