I didnt cancel the PS3 version, I really want them nightvision goggles
unfortunately, and the original CoD on the PS3. After buying all the
versions for PC, I did cancel the PC one. The only reason I was getting it
for the PC was for multiplayer with my friends that have played online since
the beginning.....
BTW, dont get DJ Hero... its another Activision Game. They are really
messing up great title games. Hope EA comes out with a kick ass version of
Medal Of Honor or wait and see what bad company 2 or battlefield 3 have in
it
