Looks like Steam is the best way to buy it since, unlike the first MW *Cough DrH you liar Cough*, the second one will be fully intergrated into Steam.

Via Kotaku.com (http://kotaku.com/5388959/modern-warfare-2-getting-the-steam-works)

"PC gamers still planning on picking up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 may want to take a look at the Steam version, which is getting full Steamworks integration, including Steam achievements and Steam Cloud support.

The achievement stuff is just delicious candy, really, but the Steam Cloud support is nice. That server side storage of your multiplayer game progress is the kind of convenience that I adore—even if I never personally use it.

Gabe Newell, Valve bigwig, sure sounds pleased about the adoption of Steamworks by Infinity Ward. "Having a game as significant as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 using the suite of back-end services in Steamworks is a signal to us that we're making the right kinds of choices for triple-A developers like Infinity Ward," he says, dollar signs in his eyes."

And if you think that everyone is still buying the game, you may want to check out the comments under the article through the link.

Hey :p remember we got the game when it first was available on steam and at the time everyone thought it was going to be integrated... Yes I was very wrong on that count..

Are you guys going with MW2 or not? This bouncing back and forth stuff is getting annoying. I am going to get it, and I want to know if you guys are too, or really there is no point in me wearing SS tags in it if I am the only one, that'd be silly.

We cannot officially go over to MW2 without being able to get a dedicated server. I still use my tags regardless of what game I am playing online. I played in a closed lan CSS game at a convention this weekend and I even used my tags there. I proudly sport my tags and support ||SS||

Well if you like being an SS then you should alwayswear your tags. You never know when someone would be like "Wow this guy is good I wonder what clan he is in" Next thing you know you could be head of your own division here.
