Probably the format most of your mates have for multiplayer...
Ah, should have said I have no interest in on-line play.

Rent the 360 version.

It's what I'll most probably be doing, I just don't like the style of MP they have in the CoD games.

Looks like the review embargos dropping:

Telegraph,UK
Guardian,UK

Summary: Miles better, Yay!

edit:
If you've got a Makro card - Makro are doing MW2 for 20quid INC VAT:

I've got a collection of HMV vouchers I was going to use but at this price its stupid to pay full whack.

I'm stuck in work til beyond midnight (ah, the joys of software releases) so I might sneak over to my local 24hr Asda when I leave. Just reading the HotUKDeals thread atm, which is pretty much updating live from around the UK, and it looks like quite a few big stores have large queues (100+ people).

Anyone reading this thread live waiting in a queue?

Well, I caved and picked it up from Tesco on the way into work this morning. Not the cheapest place by a long way, but they had plenty of copies left on both formats.

Maybe I'll even be tempted to join in on Thursday night so you can all laugh at my sucking at it and be forced to listen to me moan about how Halo ODST is more fun in MP or something.

Now £32 at Amazon UK
Fucking Amazon charged us preorder customers £43.99 and the customer service line told me a preorder is a reservation at a specific price. Scathing complaints email sent. I think I'll leave mine shrinkwrapped for now and see what Amazon do. They'll have some very annoyed customers I suspect.
