MW2 Countdown Windows (vista/win7) Sidebar Gadget:
Thanks to @captchronik17 for putting it together, uses my flash counter within the project download it here – http://tinyurl.com/yzlrl7p
*Apparently there is a bug running Windows 7 (RTM/7600 x64Bit) sidebar gadgets that use Flash (SWF) so not working for me ATM.

*Widget planned modifications/updates:

- Facebook banner/badge (Flash timer) done see above.
- Adding Twitter functionality to the widget – no time to do this ATM so probably won’t happen.
- News feed real-time news marquee with confirmed updates/new from infinity ward – might still add this or either the Twitter live feeds.
- Screen Saver
- Vista/Windows 7 – sidebar gadget, use the one above but I have a few new features so building my own.

Anyone else have any other suggestions let me know…

Sorry I have removed all MW2 news updates, now the page is dedicated to the Widgets, Enjoy.

    I know I’m on a game discussion page but… damn. IT’S JUST A FUCKING GAME. It’s not the end of the fucking world if it turns out bad.

    Also, about the console vs. PC thing:

    I’ve played COD4 on both PS3 and PC. They are both fun. I don’t prefer either one.

    Wii<Xbox360=PS3=PC.

    P.S., thanks for the countdown timer. :)

    Hey guys, I personally am a console gamer but i do see the issue here with the epic struggle between Activision and dedi servers. Which is why i have invited all my friends to sign the petition (which btw talk all the crap you want about online petitions but IW has stated on many occasions that if enough people want something, they will get it). Anyways there is NO comparison between the abilities of a PC and the abilities of a console. Consoles are completely the same in every way. This is designed so each player will have an equal chance at success. PC is a whole different story. There are literally millions of combinations of upgrades that can be tailored to each player’s preferences and this is part of the PC online experience. Which in many player’s opinion intensifies the gameplay ten-fold. IMO a player can have just as intense of a game on 360 or ps3. My point here is that they have always been two different experiences and gamers enjoy it this way. If you enjoy PC, play PC. If you enjoy 360, play 360. Instead of embracing the differences, PC gamers and Console gamers continue to wage an epic war when both should realize the strengths of the other and enjoy their system. I know that was a very random paragraph but my point is Infinity ward is not accepting the PC for what it is (what is it you may ask? It is NOT A CONSOLE) yet IW insists on turning the PC into a console. This will prove to be a VERY poor decision if they do not overturn it. What a rant. GREAT countdown time. (i’m a nerd i check it every night and get excited because the number seems to have gone down one day =) lol) Can i get a hell yeah only 12 days left from my PC and Console gamers alike!?! Stay frosty boys. One love

  3. iamtheJEWTRON says:

    I didn’t want to get into this, but i just had to point out this f**king stupid comment. \”well well well, I don’t know why these console guys have any right to comment at all, the only control you guys have over the use of your knob boxs is the on/off button.\”-le-mark….. Come on you dumb f**k. That has to be the most poorly thought out insult against console gamers i\’ve ever heard. So far the PC gamers seemed to be able to each put together their own cogent argument but you ruined it for them. One quick statement might help explain my anger. First of all, we arent all \”hey pc gamers, are you guys virgins? te he hehe te hehe\” <–you know who you are. Anyways there are TONS of intelligent console gamers. But what really got me goin was the fact that you didnt even think about your insult enough to know that COMPUTERS ONLY HAVE AN ON/OFF SWITCH TOO! besides maybe a reset button and obviously a disc ejection but we have those too. seriously you dumb sack of s**t COME ON. that was IDIOTIC! someone should get around to smacking the stupid right off of that guy

  4. le-mark says:

    jewtron….. who the f–k are you. any time moron. pc’s control your whole exsistance, all that piece of shit you play with is good for is keeping you from hanging your pathetic ass.

  5. Minty says:

    Forget the argument as enough has been said, it will never be won either way. Focus on bitching out IW and it’s Nazi tactics. If PC gamers lose dedicated servers we all, console gamers included, will end up having to pay more.

    Console gamers, you may feel this has nothing to do with you and its a good thing those PC jerks are getting smacked. Truth is your next if we go down. Not in the sense of servers but what you’ll have to pay, which will be a lot more. MW2 is already 10 bucks more than anything else they’ve sold before.

    Console gamers — 10 Bucks today, $0.10 per play tomorrow, you want to pay to play?

  6. le-mark says:

    agreed. I won’t be buying the game, only when it hits the bargin bucket at £5. enough said.

  7. sway20 says:

    im game for a cross platform battle set it up iw we will c who comes out on top xbox ps3 or pc

  8. tim says:

    cant wait for this game its going to be really cool got it for my 360

  9. Josh says:

    great timer thanks

  10. gareth says:

    I have had gamed with both pc and console… cod 4 plays much better on pc than xbox with more maps available and new mods like paintball that add a little extra fun to the game. and thats all for free too. i Had to pay 800 microshite points for 4 maps freely available online. But times are hard and work/family commitments means at this point in time i cannot afford to upgrade my pc so until i can its xbox all the way. theres a downside to both platforms there guys… but who really cares?? i like the cod games and will play them on whatever i can. because after all its all about the game.

  11. le-mark's-son says:

    Dad please shut up for ffs! !
    your making a complete ass of yourself and embarising me ! so shut the fuck up or im telling mom ! !

  12. admin says:

    LOL @ le-mark’s-son ….

  13. DMAN says:

    looks good… maybe gonna get it for Christmas or later on.. Im buying Left 4 dead 2!!!
    Anyways this game wont be that good/ no multiplayer achievements! thats gonna make me not even play it that much.. but oh well.. ill stick to trying to get my CoD:WAW achievements. :)

  14. glowurm420 says:

    normally i keep comments to myself but mr le-mark you sir r a trolling idiot you talk to console gamers as if you were better then they r well me myself i love the WASD n mouse just as much as i enjoy the console controller this feud that has spawned between pcers and consolers is friggan retarded IMO shut the hell up your telling people to get a life yet you are commenting on a website BASED FOR A COUNTDOWN TO A GAME….sounds like somebody is watching the clock as much as i am so why dont you take a step back and take the time out of your “busy life” and think about what your saying we all make the dev’s money so sorry if the console has become more popular then your little pc so stop crying take the strawberry douche out and go take some midol for the pain run a hot bath get your quart of ice cream and sit down and watch the little black blook it will make you feel better

  15. Minty says:

    glowurm420

    You on some sort of medication that you forgot take? You’re post makes as much sense as the Swedish Chef on the Muppets. At least he was amusing.

  16. le-mark says:

    son….. if you carry on i tell all boys and ass holes you still wet the bed. oooooooh no let the piss out the bag. sorry son now off to bed before i ram my fist down your mouth. mom should have shot the little c–t at birth.

  17. le-mark says:

    Lets get this thing settled ….console guys this is nothing to do with you PC GAMERS UNITE in this. No one else. i had a 32 man server ordered for this game, i pay out good money to have players use my servers and i charge them nothing. its all about the community the pc gamming community, I could give a fuck about you console gamers, i choose not to play console becuase pc,s give you more freedom, this is a fact. until i heard the crap you console guys were giving us for our stuggle to get dedi servers, i had nothing against you guys because i had nothing to do with you guys. this has nothing to do with you. so stay out of it. good luck with this site but you realy need to clear the shit out. yeh yeh i know ha ha. gone to a better forum.

  18. le-mark's-son says:

    Thank god my iq level is more like moms .

  19. Flames21891 says:

    Another thing I would like to add to this Dedicated Server debate is that I was planning on buying this game twice over: Once on my PS3 (so that I could enjoy it with friends when they come over, and also play online with them because they do not own gaming PC’s) and on the PC because that is my personal preference. Firstly, I’ve never been a fan of this whole “matchmaking” business. I prefer to just jump into an active server and play, it’s simpler. Plus, you can see what map and game mode the server is running and find the game YOU want to play.

    Another reason I preferred the original Modern Warfare on the PC is that the servers were customizable. Going into a 32 man Free for All was more intense than the 8 player version on the console. Also, the servers didn’t have to abide by a set score limit. I often went into the servers that had half-hour long games with no score limit, it sort of took away the stress of competing with everyone, egos weren’t an issue, and you could just relax and play the game.

    Without dedicated servers, none of this is possible and that’s a big thing because PC gamers are used to this. Most, if not all online FPS’s on the PC work along these lines and its what we consider an advantage to playing on a PC.

    However, one of the biggest things you are cutting is the communities. When a community or clan has its own server, that community becomes closer. Being able to go into a familiar server and play with familiar people makes the experience that much more engaging, and generally more fun.

    If you console people want to help our cause, then go right ahead, but don’t antagonize it just because you think it’s pointless. We care about keeping dedicated servers, because that’s the way PC gaming should be.

    @ Flames – you nailed it mate.

  21. Bob Jenkins says:

    What’s with the flame war? Also, for everyone bitching, how much of this was IW’s design team making decisions, and how much was this Activision’s fault? We don’t really know, except that Treyarch is currently Activisions favorite studio and anything that might take away from that Activision steps on. Just saying, there’s no way to know who’s behind this stuff.

  22. Headbreaker says:

    Hey common guys…
    the one likes pc the other the console..both is cool :)
    i game on xbox and on pc…so i like console while you can put the game in…and finish ^^….on pc you must installl thats crap but the PC has his good sites. so I buy MW2 for xbox but so battlefield 2 is for my pc :)
    PC and console are the same..both are gaming objects :D
    so gamers pc ore console dont make war of this two!
    Work together for a better GAMING WORLD!!! xD

    And i have a question the timer is in america time zone ore where ?

  23. Lucas White says:

    CANT WAIT TILL THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  24. admin says:

    There is no timezone set, sorry

  25. mrup2nogud says:

    christ am i sick of hearing pc gamers whine play the fucking game how its meant to be if there are features you dont like such as sniping or martyrdom learn to live with t like us console players have too stop crying dedi servers breed cheats get a grip if you dont like it dont play you ponces

  26. Fox says:

    Love the timer but I wish that stupid ass petition wasn’t apart of it. I really don’t give a fuck about PC gamers or their lame ass petition. Is there anyway we can get a version without the petition count cause it’s quite annoying to say the least, mate.

    Thanks for the timer.

  27. No Dedi servers for CODMW2 is the worst idea and will inturn ruin the game for the PC gamers, Argue all you want but playing on a PC vs Console is not even close, ps3 nor xbox could make a system that comes closse to my PC in anyway, I also know theres alot of us PC gamers out there that feel the sameway, with that being said I will be getting the game just incase those morons change their minds and decide to put in Dedi servers.

  28. admin says:

    @mrup2nogud – one response to you, GTFO NOOB.

    @Fox – Thanks man, Sorry no can do petition has to stay trying to make a point here, might only be a small one but I am not backing down for NO ONE. The countdown I made by myself/for myself to use – and if other users PC or Console wanted to use can do so by all means do.. I am a PC gamer so if you do not like it go get another one someplace else (there are allot on the internet – even though mine was the first) thanks for the comment.

    @SmallTime – thanks for posting link man, yes indeed what a BS response by Activision very week, totally ignoring their customers because we are the “minority”. If IWNet is so grand why don’t they release a video showing off how it works exactly or release a beta/Demo before the game releases – cos they know they are in the wrong/they only release this BS about IWNet right towards the end of the release knowing that PC users will hate the idea. What Activision needs to realize is PC games industry has has the biggest selling title (which they bought) its called World of Warcraft out sells any/all Console games ever made! with a user base of over 15 million PC Gamers a month (I am one of them and most of the gamers I know who play FPS also play it).

    Activision makes me sick. All they want is money which is fare enough I will pay but they way they are going about it is wrong. They want to control both PC & Console gamers like they have already done so on COD5:WAW with the map packs (they saw money can be made through this selling over 25-30 million on both map1/2/3) but couldn’t control the PC users so gave it away free, what I don’t understand is there is just about as much piracy going on on console as PC’s too, go look on ISOhunt or other torrent sites you’ll see allot of XBOX pirate games up for download, what they need to realize is if people don’t want to pay they will find a way not to, instead of making games shitter & removing basic features the game depends on in the sake of piracy why don’t they get of their asses and develop a real proper anti-cheat system and solution as well as a proper Direct-Download redistribution system instead of fucking up a game that was perfectly fine to start with.

    All I can say is yes PC gamers will buy they game, maybe not on release but we will cave in. But I sure as hell wont be playing multiplayer that’s for sure, soon as BF:Bad Company 2 comes out I think most PC Gamers will shift over to that game.
    SO TRIED of responding to noobish console users coming on here going PC GAMERS MOAN blah blah change the fucking record yes we you aren’t the first person on the internet to say this why don’t you trying responding with a viable response. If you can’t fucking understand why we are moaning then I think you should go back to grade1 cos it doesn’t seem like shit is getting through to your thick skull – Next BS response gets added to SPAM list.

    Looks like the retailers are getting on the bandwagon as well:

    http://kotaku.com/5398259/online-retailers-refusing-to-sell-modern-warfare-2

  30. Flames21891 says:

    Well it’s almost here. Soon enough I will be picking up my PS3 pre-order and begin to revel in the awesomeness that is Modern Warfare 2. However, depending on the circumstances, I will likely not be buying it for the PC. Without the extras that dedicated servers provide, it would essentially be dropping another $60 to use a keyboard and mouse. While it is my preferred control scheme (sorry controller fans but face it, a keyboard and mouse gives you WAY more precision and control in a FPS)that isn’t enough to warrant a PC buy in addition to my PS3 purchase.

    For all those PC people that maybe don’t own a console or for whatever reason refuse to buy it for the console, I wish you all luck in your struggle for dedicated servers.

    As for all those console junkies that keep coming on here to tell us to “stop whining” I would like to point out that in essence it’s protesting, and a lot of things in history were changed thanks to protesting. This may not be as important, and it doesn’t matter to you at all if you run with a console, but this is our protest and you have no right to come in here and start antagonizing us, especially when it is doing no harm to you.

    guys i say we stop the fighting both pc and console are cool

  32. stopthefinrediculousness says:

    Ok this is total BS I don’t get why everyone has to be a f–ckin fanboy all the f–ckin time! WTF! SERIOUSLY GROW UP! Console games, are awesome, PC gaming is a whole different world! I love both of them! I do console gaming more because that’s what I can afford! People say pc gaming is cheaper and better… Well thats fine and dandy if you can afford a graphics card and a good enough computer, by all means go for it. But some of the world opts for more simplicity and some additional functionality. Like you might not mind letting someone play call of duty on your ps3, but I know I don’t want anyone screwing with my computer! It’s all about preference and I have to admit PC gaming is so versatile it’s amazing! But I have to stay stop getting your panties in a knot over some stupid fanboy s–t.

    GROW THE HELL UP! IT’S ALL ABOUT GAMES, NOT WTF YOUR MENTAL CONDITION IS!

  33. stopthefinrediculousness says:

    Oh and I understand and feel the pain of no dedicated servers cause thats the one thing that pisses me off about console gaming. Beieve me it does. I’m with you pc gamers on that one, thats some seriously bull.

  34. stopthefinrediculousness says:

    “Another thing I would like to add to this Dedicated Server debate is that I was planning on buying this game twice over: Once on my PS3 (so that I could enjoy it with friends when they come over, and also play online with them because they do not own gaming PC’s) and on the PC because that is my personal preference.

    I bought my first console fps think it would be like the dedicated servers, I didn’t know what the hell matchmaking was, and I have to admit, I spend more time trying to find a game i like on a map I like than I do actually playing. IT SUCKS!

    That’s the one thing console fanboys don’t understand if they’ve never played a PC fps… It’s annoying that activision is going backward in the online perspective…

  35. Minty says:

    Flames21891, if people like you who are both PC and console gamers would also cancel your preorder and let IW know that even though you are a console gamer you wont buy the game because of their idiotic choices it would help all of us. If we got a million console gamers to refuse to buy the game their future descisions would be greatly influenced. Unfortunatley they hope that people will be complacent and mindless, after all they know better dont they. They are the ones who know online gaming better than the people who actually do the gaming. They are the smart ones who know whats best for us after all.

    Get my point? If console gamers allow these jackass’s to get away with this you and I know that they will be changing the way console gamers play online next. Do you really want to pay to play? You will be if you keep supporting the assholes at IW by buying the game, no matter what playform version you purchase.

    This is the longest 8 hours ever

  37. Angus says:

    Dont know about everyone else, maybe its just where i live,
    but this is counting up now.
    Thats because Australia is better and gets MW2 before most of the world ie. USA

    Personally I play Xbox so i dont care if there are dedicated servers for pc. As long as I get to play online Im fine. Im pretty sure if I had this game on PC I wouldnt care either.

  38. MW2 Rules says:

    like 8 hours!!!! cant wait!!!! gettin prestige edition for 360!!!!

  39. SmallTime says:

    i mostly play XBOX360 yes i know and no im not a twat like others and yes there are a lot but i also play pc but as most know time now adays is short with school and work paying bills i dont have the time to get the new graphic cards and more RAM and ROM i just find it easyer to play on consol but thoughs who do play on pc i envy you all. and i support gamming so i support your petition.

  40. Ralph says:

    HELLZZ YEAH! MW2 OUT NOW…

  41. bob says:

    cod has the best connection out of halo, cod and gears, and they fixed the host backing out.. who the fuck cares about anything else ?

    WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    Modern Warfare 2 fuckin kicks ass

    medal of honor my A$$

  46. Flames21891 says:

    @Minty

    Well they already lost my second purchase on the PC. You don’t need to boycott the game as a whole really, when they simply see a significant decrease in the PC sales division I’m sure they will realize that they made a mistake. After all, it’s about making as much money as possible, and if they’re intelligent enough to realize that if they just include dedicated servers, PC sales will go up then I’m sure they will get around to it.

  47. Minty says:

    Well I can now say I told you so. It was released by I.W. that they are now looking at how to implement pay to play. Congratulations you freaking asshole console players who thought it was only going to be the PC players who were going to get shafted. To those console players who were mature enough to see that this was bad all around and helped in the petition, thank you but it just wasnt enough.

    So you asshole console players who couldn’t be bothered to take your head outa your ass, we’re all going to have to pay more to buy a game thanx to you and soon will have to pay to play every game. And all this for what has turned out to be a game thats unable to live up to the hype.

    Just wait for the whining and sniveling these little bastards will make when they dont have enough allownace to play any more.
