[cod] Sorry have to vent, Modern Warfare 2 on the PC

[John Kennington]

Personally, I liked the "bifurcate the community" excuse.  I guess making an
xbox, PSP, and other console games doesn't "bifurcate the community."  And
then they "bifurcate" the community even more by making the PC game a
glorified console game.  I don't think they understand what "bifurcate"
means.
