Yep, we know you’re all experiencing problems with the new matchmaking system built into Modern Warfare 2. Maybe it’s working OK for US gamers, but it has been a nightmare for any Aussies trying to join a game without being killed by lag. So what to do?
Until Infinity Ward comes up with a better solution, your best bet is to create private matches filled exclusively with fellow Aussies. But maybe not everyone has a friends list long enough to do this whenever you want to play. So let’s help each other out.
In the comments below, I want you to leave your relevant gamertag or ID on whichever platform(s) you play. Hopefully we can make it just that little bit easier to enjoy shooting each other in the face.
Note: I’ll leave this post pinned to the top of the front page all day. Or longer, if it proves really popular. all weekend.

Don’t actually have MW2 yet but it’s in the post.
Not to shamelessly pimp my own website but we’re starting a forum list of MW2 users for this very reason and we’ve got a handful of people all ready, mainly for the 360. Feel free to drop your GT over there too, I need to cut the chaff from my friends list and add some new ppl.
