Modern Warfare 2 prints more money than an innovative game ever will.

$15 again eh?

While I'm sure millions will buy this DLC just like they did the Stimulus Pack, I'll be passing on this just like I did the first.

$30 for two packs of DLC for one game...Yikes.

EDIT: Oops. The Stimulus Pack had five maps too. Ha! Shows how much I care about it! :lol:

I think I'm pretty much done with this game. Haven't really played at all in the past month. Payed for the first DLC, definitely not paying for the second.

Same here, i bought the first one but i doubt if i'll get this second one, $15 is indeed too much, there are some very good PSN games that are les than that and more fun than just getting a DLC

Why do people even argue this now, its 15 dollars, yes its expensive. That's not stopping people from buying, sales > topic, sales win. And you buying the first just proves it even more. its not going to change.

Well, usually is 2 or 3 maps for $10 dollars, so $15 for 5 maps seems to be the general conversion for what you're getting. Not saying that it's a good deal...I never buy ripoff content, but they're not charging you any more than other DLC maps.

Wow....how I wish we had someone we could actually complain to in the industry : [ This is absolutely absurd. The GTA4 DLC cost me 1600 points each time and that added so much to the game (so people can't argue that they deserve it). I hate you Activision.

Basically this is what I've always hated about DLCs now after purchasing the game + the 2 DLCS people will have spent $90 on one game...gets excessive. I've always favored a system(not that this would ever happen but) where if you buy the first DLC for the game within the first month of its release and for full price, then later you can get the rest of the DLCs for very very cheap (i.e 320 MS points) or for free.

Well, as long as people find value at the price it's gonna sell. So what can you do but ignore it if you don't want it I guess.

So those who buy this will have just spent $30 on top of $60. In other words they just bought the worlds worst expansion pack.

It used to bother me that they are charging $15, but I realized I will never pay that much for maps so now I can just laugh at people on my friends list who buy that. What bothers me the most, I have some ppl on my list with comments like "**** MW2!!!!!" or "$15? Seriously!?" yet they bought the maps anyway and play MW2 every day of the week. Maybe Activision has learned how big of tools some gamers are. I wouldn't be surprised if they charged $20 for 6 maps or something. I really doubt they would see any difference in sales

Infinity Ward: "Tired of playing on old maps? Well, get ready because we have a map pack coming so you don't have to play the same old maps over and over again" Infinity Ward 2 weeks later: "We're announcing our Stimulus Map Pack which includes 2 extremely old maps!" :lol: What a joke of a company they've become. I can't wait to see what they have in store this time around.

I traded in MW2 awhile ago. I have no vendetta against Activision, and I don't fall for the usual "lets hate on what's popular" bandwagon other people jump on. But I genuinly thought MW2 was inferior to MW1 and Call of Duty 1. To me it was like Call of Duty 2 and Call of Duty 3. Mediocre and nowhere near as tight of an experience as the 2 good call of duty games(1 and 4).

not to mention a COD game is released every year so your $270 for 3 years worth of call of duty games +DLC which is also included on the disc it just isn't unlocked. This kind of marketing is almost criminal if people didn't have the choice to buy it.

The MW2 fanbase plays only MW2. Those $30 they'll spend will give them more entertainment than they would spending it on something else. Afterall, this game is created for people who don't like their FPS games to take skill. Oh wait, nevermind, that's every FPS nowadays. I feel sorry for fans of FPS games, be prepared for $20 map packs for Halo Reach and Killzone 3.

It's all about network effects.

People will buy the DLC if they think that their friends are buying the DLC also.

But, eventually, people will stop buying DLC.

People buying DLC for their favourite games make you lose faith in humanity? Can't tell if you're serious or not.
