Stimulus pack so over priced!!

Well in english store the pack is 10.99 now i think that is way overpriced, its only 3 new maps one of which is extremely small, and 2 of the best maps from call of duty 4.

Whats your thoughts on the map pack

Oh and how much is it in the american store?

I believe it's $15 or £9.92 on the USA psn store.

Yeah that's been the story since it was announced, that it's way overpriced. It's $15 US. Hasn't stopped millions of people from downloading it though.

Yeah? So? Mercedes is overpriced too. Nobody is forcing you to spend your money.

Don't like it? Don't buy it. Quit crying.

15 bucks ain't **** if you have a job.

They know they can milk you so they jack up the price as much as they want. Its pretty stupid how they charging for maps and addons. Even PC are starting to do this DLC stuff >>. Thank goodness value does free maps and cheap games on steam.

Amen to that lol

$15 for potentially DAYS of entertainment... ya, WAY overpriced. /sarcasm

if you think about it you paid $60 for the game and now $15 more just for 3 new maps. thats $75 right there just for 1 game!!! that is a staright up rip off. the only way it will be worth the $15 is if they included 5 NEW maps and 1 or 2 new weapons or killstreaks or something else.

Don't buy it. It's not like they are forcing you to buy it to keep playing. Now that would be outrageous.

Yes, it's expensive, but so are Rolex watches. I don't buy them either.

I agree that if you have a job $15 isn't that much to spend, I also agree that if you don't want to you certainly don't HAVE to purchase the maps to keep playing. It's not like the map packs offer new level caps, new weapons, or better perks. They're just maps, and not very desirable ones by the sound of it.

Let all that tension go, it's not healthy.

Neither is $40. Maybe they should charge $40 for the map pack. Maybe $50.
No wait...if I get like $500 a week, that means I could probably go as high as $200.
They should charge $200 for the map pack.
Yep.

Well, I don't claim to be rich but 15bks isn't alot of cash....I'm mean most people spend that much daily on lunch or cigarettes. "NOW" I'm not saying that Activision is justified for making it that much, but just as others have said....no one is making you buy it.

15 bucks aint that much, yea it may be a little over priced, but 15 bucks, come on, its not that much......

seriously, its 4 great maps and one mediocre one that you will get more entertainment from then a bookshelf of movies if you play as much as a lot of people. its really not that big of a deal guys. you dont have to buy it, but anybody that loves the game really has no reason not to, unless theyre jobless or on drugs.

also, there are plenty of guns, killstreaks, perks, and attachments already, the only thing they really should include with the DLC is titles/emblems, but cmon, maps is good enough

It's their right to charge what they want.

This. Even though i don't support these guys.

I got mine for free yet I still feel like I got jipped.

I had 11.04 on, which i thought was way enough as it was probably gonna be AT MOST £10. But I get ripped off with 10.99.

The maps are TOO SMALL. I hope Map Pack 2 brings us SUPER UBER MEGA LARGE HUGE GIGANTIC Maps.

Well, people keep buying it, so Activision will continue to rape our wallets. It's a simple concept. If people don't support exorbitant prices, then companies won't make the prices that high. This is why I bought MW2 used and I'm not buying this crappy map pack.

You like sniping don't you..?? I don't like you very much...:|

I'll buy it when it's 10$ or less, and for me scince I never owned COD4 (Played it at friends houses.) It's five new maps for me. :P

You're right about that. I won't be buying it.
$15 is high, but I'm just not that into MW2 anymore. I played it for about a month and moved on.

I still don't get the people who say this. Say a company sells a pair of jeans for 60 bucks and you buy them. Then, they sell a pair of underwear for 15 bucks. Sure, you might think that's a bit much, but you don't have to buy them. It's the same thing. It's not a matter of principle. These companies have one goal: make money. No one can argue that they are doing pretty good as far as sales go.jakeocooney

I dont' blame Activision at all. I blame the people that pay extra for DLC. Activision will charge whatever people are willing to pay, as will any other company (it's not like Activision is the only company offering DLC which seems to be a questionable value for what you are paying).

The concept of DLC is great when you have legitimate extra gameplay. However stuff like "weapon skins", "map packs", "avatars" are borderline scams. Then you end up with stuff like Dragon Age Origins where there is a character IN THE GAME advertising for you to visit the Playstation Store to "purchase" the quest. This pissed me off since I bought that game brand new and just after release, did they really need to have a DLC right at release date and something that intrudes into the normal game?. That was a new low in my eyes, I promptly took the game out and haven't touched it since.

Yeah your right, even $30 is nothing when you have a job, so would you go and pay $30 for a piece of paper? In fact $50 isn't much too why not spend that much on a cheap pen?

Don't take it the wrong way, i sort of have a job. I help my dad at his office, but i get about $200 a month. Just saving it for college.

You aren't forced to buy it. Just as there are other pens on the market, there are other FPSes to play.

You aren't that is correct but that doesn't mean that they should overprice it in the first place and it doesn't mean that it should turn into a trend. I have a ton of these Modern Warfare 2 fans in my area and they didn't even know that Activision and Infinity Ward were having huge problems, they didn't even know who West and Zampella were. They thought that Infinity Ward was hard at work on Modern Warfare 3 to make a more "beast" game lol.

Well their ripping all the casuals off...

I have a bunch of casual friends that got it but they aren't complaing. Us hardcore gamers I guess see the unfairness of it.

They're a business and can charge as they please. If you were in their position would you really care about overcharging and making a small minority of people angry while greatly increasing profits? While I don't agree with it, it is their choice, and it is your choice as to whether you want to buy it or not.

YEs $15 is a little steep for some DLC but what im pissed off about is that i have to play in a assortment of games instead of just picking FFA or TD or any of the rest. I

It is over priced, but there's too many people that are willing to buy it. If you think it's overpriced don't buy it. The millions willing to drop the cash on it are fueling this price hike. Wouldn't surprise me if they jack up DLC to $20 in the future.

I know there are pens worth more than $50, hence the term cheappen and not pen. Because some might pay that much for a nice-looking pen but not many would pay $50. I didn't contradict myself in any way, it's sarcasm man, I think you need a new sarcasm detector ;).
