Living and dying laughing and crying

Overly priced? Really? Oh I'm sorry hood-rat, that major expense of THREE WHOLE DOLLARS per map, they really are milking the customers. Get a grip of yourself. If you enjoy playing the game (I know it's not cool to admit you actually enjoy MW2, but then if it really is that **** you wouldn't be commenting about it would you) then 3 bucks a map really isn't that much is it? Or are you all so desolate and can't afford the evil corporation actually charging you for some content. I appreciate that you've got so used to ripping stuff off for nothing that it appears totally unreasonable for you to have to pay for something but please, 3 dollars a map and you are all crying.
Yes, it's not cool to do so, but because the game itself isn't cool.Crappy p2p online component, crappy SP portion, lame story, overpriced, the list goes on. It's not cool to throw even more money to mr. bobby kotick either. I recommend everyone to just get bad company 2 instead. Or wait for the next MoH.
wow, you signed up just to say that......
And I’m sorry but I for one don’t live in The Monopoly Guy’s ar*e.
If people want to buy this then they are entitled to do so, I’m not going to stop them.
My point is that games in general are increasing in price. That’s not necessarily a bad thing
as long as the devs/publishers can add reasonable ‘value’ to their products.
Perhaps if they added ‘NEW’ gameplay modes then I could see gamers not getting pee’d off by this crap.
No doubt it will sell like hotcakes but in the end this kind of thing will just frustrate gamers
and encourages other devs to do something similar.

No idea where that guys post came from, I'm guessing the overwhelming hostility must relate to some kind of emotional problem.
The phrase "what are you really angry about" springs to mind bud. You're entitled to your opinion, just like everyone else here, but there's no need to be hostile about it and frankly that's not the kind of attitude we expect from members here. You can easily make a point without laying into people.
Personally I don't see this pack as great value for money either. I'll buy it, but only because I've got the points to spare tbh.
Three dollars per map, fair enough, but I paid for two of those once already when I bought COD4 and at 1200 points the pack costs a full 400 hundred points MORE than COD4's map pack that included four BRAND NEW maps. Not to mention the jacked up RRP of MW2. Or the fact that EA are releasing content for Bad Company 2 that's arguably as good and costs.....wait for it..... nothing, if you purchased the game new. Infinity Ward might not be charging and arm and a leg, but they are most definitely cashing in on the franchise, it's fairly obvious.
I don't think it has anything to do with IW. I thought all the pricing was down to Activision?

I'm not sure to be honest with you, it might well be up to Activision. But, I know after the success of COD4 that IW have much more control over the franchise than they did, so I wouldn't be shocked to find out it's at least six of one and half a dozen of the other when it comes to pricing. Either way, someones cashing in just because they know that demand is on their side.
They know that millions of kids, and adults across the globe are gonna flock to purchase this, so they can charge ridiculous amounts for it..
I wouldn't sell cans of coke for 40p each if I knew I could sell 2,500,000 in a week at £1.50 each.
