http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-491484.aspx?CT=1 Bowling confirms MW2 Map Pack to cost 1200 MS Points off all the developers who price theirs at 800mp...they certainly make enough money to keep it that low..but no..they just want to be an arse about it. Looks like my hard earned money is going toward the one and only amazing Perfect Dark game.

I just find it funny how they are charging for maps they already used before :).

Truth is, MW2 is a top-tier game... thus, it's add-ons command a top-tier price...

Sadly most gamers that play COD are casual gamer and uninformed of these things so they will just go on and buy it.

Hold on:

Cod4 DLC was $10. (4 maps)

MW2 DLC is 5 maps WITH 2 old maps= basically a DLC of 3 new maps...

So i pay MORE for LESS.

Anyone surprised?

I'm actually quite annoyed about this. I've fallen out of favour with MW2 (BC2 taking up my time, and the glitches), but was really hoping that the map pack might interest me again. I doubt I'll get this map pack ...

As irritated as people will be, people will still enable Activision to get away with this by paying for it.

Activision wouldn't do it if consumer tools didn't buy it.

If this is successful, get ready for a more ridiculous price for DLC in the near future.

That's right! I forgot all about the BC2 map pack. And the class packs come out in a few days IIRC.

I think its pretty fair, 5 maps for the greatest FPS ever concieved by man, published by the most breath taking developer in the gamming buisness. I would feel cheated if they asked for anything less.

RadecSupreme

Quoted for truth. It is sad , and 90% of them will never play the Superior BFBC2 game due to not being advertised on TV. Casuals lol...

oh yeah if you buy the BFBC2 limited edition first run copy (1-2 month edition since launch) you get the vip code which lets you download the first 6 multiplayer maps for free when they come out. Now that is value on top of the great maps already in the game and the much much much longer and more indepth singple player game. Oh yeah and the better sound and vehicles. If you havne't tried BFBC2 yet, go get it. It's 1000000000x more fun and feature rich then mw2!

No MW2 shipped with some of the crappiest maps ever released for a video game IMO, and the map pack shoudl ahve been free. Completely free, considering the GAME sold for $10 more than all previous COD games.

Sad thing is, they probably could have added 1 more map and put the price at $20 and everybody would still buy it without asking quesions

The dlc maps for CoD4 were horrible. Not worth getting them for free either.
