It looks like Infinity Ward (The makers of the Call of Duty series) screwed up a lot, and lost a HUGE amount of potential customers from the decision to put something they call "IWNet" into Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Bascially IW is making a console-like matchmaking system for MW2, that will centralize gameservers and will be the death of mods / private dedicated servers and the communities those things create.
More information can be read at the Kotaku article about it HERE. Now, it's a bit lengthy, but if your a gamer, this could be bad news if other game makers follow suit; It could mean the death of PC FPS multiplayer as we know it!
