Is it just me or does $15 sound like a ridiculous price for 4 new maps?
Have they always charged this much for a map pack?

Map packs used to come free, or the game was modifiable to enable the community to create there own maps on PC. How times have changed :(Is it just me or does $15 sound like a ridiculous price for 4 new maps? Activision is just ridiculous...

No one's telling you to buy it.

I'm just saying..I hope other publishers don't start acting like Activision and charging us an absurd price for a freakin map pack.
Well the good thing about this is that Activision's competitor, EA, has more chances to release map packs for free like we recently got for Bad Company 2 to win customers over. A game that has map packs which you have to pay equivalent to 3 indie packs that are on sale now or a game that completely releases their map pack for free. [And you can still pick up those indie packs ;) ]
Really, when you think of what else you can get for $15 dollars it really is a joke. I think that if they released free content that would help promote their game and give people an extraincentive to buy it. I love what Tripwrire does for their games. Free content updates for Killing Floor/Red Orchestra and followed by a sale. Whatever, I'm not the business genius.
$15 is a quarter of the game's price. :x I miss the days where PC games used to get free map packs or user created maps.
considering how **** up the PC version of this game is.... activision can go to hell. the map pack should be free for PC gamers just for all the **** we have had to go through with this game.
I didn't have to go through any **** to play the game but I agree that after putting PC gamers through so much just to get it running, the $15 is a slap in the face.considering how **** up the PC version of this game is.... activision can go to hell. the map pack should be free for PC gamers just for all the **** we have had to go through with this game.

It's sad to say this...but the reason it's $15 is because people buy it. The MW2 map packs were $15 a piece. So many people complained, and still bought them. Now if people stopped buying overpriced DLC I am sure the price would be lower.
I have not even purchased this game as I knew they would charge ridiculous amounts for map packs :/ plus £39.99 for a game, please thats a joke.
