I guess that's more of a stimulus package for them rather than us. $15 for maps is ridiculous.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Game » consists of 22 releases. Released Nov 10, 2009
The sequel to 2007’s wildly successful first-person-shooter Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 continues the story of American and British soldiers fighting Russian ultra-nationalist forces.
1200 MS points for the stimulus map pack are they having a laugh?
People are still shitting themselves over this? I thought all the people who had a problem with this game stopped playing and switched to Bad Company 2.
" People are still shitting themselves over this? I thought all the people who had a problem with this game stopped playing and switched to Bad Company 2. "This. People piss and moan about MW2 but they still play it, I don't get it.
Let's see: $3 a map. 16 CoD4MW1 maps. Hmm ...
The way I see it, Activision should have instead simply resold those 16 maps for $50 to their target dumbographic. Better business. Less work. Not to mention they'd obviously get away with it. Activision's like the R.Kelly of developers. Pisses on fans, yet they still pay to hear him sing.
i will buy them. if any of you has made a good game and want to charge me 15$ to play more and have more fun.. i'll pay. i not some poor fuck who can't spend 15$ and somthing that will bring me happiness.
any way this hole comment thread is dumn. all it is is a MW2 flame war...
When I get on the internet the week after the map pack is released and see that it broke DLC sales records, I will have the greatest facepalm I've ever had.

How can you say that when you have no idea of the quality of the three new maps? It could be the best DLC ever for all you know.
That's over here:" Well... Bad Company 2. "

I'll buy it on day one. My addiction to MW2 has been reduced recently (mostly due to my hours at work getting doubled) but a new map pack should have it kick started again. I'd love for it to be $10, but I know the price point is never going to change. No matter how many people online protest it, twice as many are going to buy it without even knowing such petitions and protests exist.
What sucks is that I'll have to buy some weird ass combination of microsoft points to get it. MS should really do away with the bundle system and let us buy however many points we want.
Man I haven't touched MW2 in about a month but I really want to play those CoD4 maps with the new stuff in MW2. So I guess i'm falling for activision's evil but i don't really care. ( I had gaming moments I will always remember on those maps, i don't care if that's weird) Overgrown and Crash!
3 maps for $10 at $3.33 a map: no complaints.
5 maps for $15 at $3.00 a map: I HATE EVERYTHING THAT HAS EVER EXISTED I HOPE ACTIVISION DIES IN A FIRE AND GETS RUN OVER BY A TRAIN THAT IS ALSO ON FIRE
Also, it's just five bucks. If that's breaking the bank, then you've got bigger problems than not being able to get a silly little map pack.
Quit your whining, people. If you don't want it, don't buy it. If you think it's too expensive, don't buy it. That's how capitalism works.
I probably won't buy it, but all this idiotic whining is so annoying.

And yet here they are, all porty and direct. And we're expected to pay.
Fifteen dollars.
And be happy about it.
I successfully convinced all my MW2 friends not to buy the maps. All of them are playing Bad Company 2 now anyways.

Oh and yes, Valve would never charge for additional content.
Amen. People need to realize nothing they can do will stop the rest of MW2's multiplayer population (myself included) from buying this. And no, it doesn't mean those people are "idiots" for buying it. It means they like to play a game and want to experience all the new content it has to offer, whilst the rest of them are too busy pinching their pennies." 3 maps for $10 at $3.33 a map: no complaints. 5 maps for $15 at $3.00 a map: I HATE EVERYTHING THAT HAS EVER EXISTED I HOPE ACTIVISION DIES IN A FIRE AND GETS RUN OVER BY A TRAIN THAT IS ALSO ON FIRE Also, it's just five bucks.
