Night Vision Goggles – See & Play In The Dark!
December 9, 2009
You may have played video games such as Call of Duty or Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, where the Night Vision Goggles play a massive role in defeating the bad guys. Clearly, they are used in real war as well, but most of us stay well away from all that danger and prefer the safer option of dancing around the garden with plastic Kalashnikov’s that make a funny clicking sound when you pull the trigger.

I was desperate to buy Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2, but I thought I was going to have to wait until Christmas to be able to afford it. But thankfully, the supermarkets decided to slash the price and I bagged myself a copy for £26 and it was worth every penny.

The level (which I will run through in a minute for those who haven’t played it/heard about it) has already raised significant amounts of controversy – to the point where it has come up in parliament – but nowhere as much as Russia who have decided to ban the game and are currently recalling all the copies with the mission on from stores across the country.

As millions of people across the globe eagerly got started on probably the biggest game this year; COD6: Modern Warfare 2, some for in for a nasty surprise as they discovered that they were on the raw end of Microsoft’s plan to help curb the increasing amount of piracy: they had been banned from Xbox Live, permanently.
The crime? Installing new chips that allows them to run unofficial or illegal programmes and games, and easily pirate games and download them for free. According to Microsoft this modifying of the console with the express interest to play games illegally is an infringement of the terms of use of Xbox Live and have therefore banned them from the service.
A spokesman for the company said: “All consumers should know that piracy is illegal and that modifying their Xbox 360 console to play pirated discs violates the Xbox Live terms of use, will void their warranty and result in a ban from Xbox Live”.
