1 - Early adopters / hardcore gamers
take it on the chin yet again.
So to entice sales further they are giving away the maps for free but to the people that made COD4 the most popular shooter this year? Get out your wallets because the map pack is coming and it's not free for you!

I love being micro transaction to death this gen. What a wonderful thing.

Hey IW how about fixing the game instead of worrying about making even more money first?

why is it that gamers are best at moaning and whining

(sorry for caps but)
dont wanna pay for maps DONT buy it
allready own cod4 and only want the maps JUST buy the mappack NOT the game of the year edition
dont wanna support DLC DONT buy it

but please stop DEMANDING stuff for free, if you get free maps its nice but not STANDARD.

jeez none of you moan about paying for gas, buying mp3's for your mp3 player, new rims for your cars, a new belt for your trousers, dvds for your player, booz for your sparetime. Want new content ? pay for it, wanna stick with the main game dont pay for it

its not that hard you know

All that whining about a developer making money ....
if you work at a great team offering mostly 12 hours a day to deliver YOU guys a great game and new maps after the first months passed, i sure as hell want to be paid for it, make money with it to make even more games and money in the future, dont you ?

2.1 - I'm really frustrated
with how broken IW made the gameplay with their last patch. They gave us lotsa cool things but the LAG now is really really bad. Please IW... FIX IT... or buying the mappacks won't even be an issue for me cuz I'll just move on to the next game.

... and yeah I love how the gamers this generation, who support the games from the beginning, tend to get the shaft if another version is released. GotY editions with extra content should proly be priced accordlingly... say $10 more instead of the $5 less that they usually are.

4 - Why only 360?
Somewhere along the line, Activision seems to have forgotten that their software has also sold really well on the Playstation 3. Why is the XBOX360 getting special treatment on things like this? Makes no sense.

because xbox live is a huge community with millions of people, hundreds of thousands of those people play Cod4 online. Playstation online consists of a millions of people most of which play crappy Japanese style games.

it looks like its for 360 only
why would they leave the ps3 version out unless they also have something special to announce soon for the ps3 version
maybe something different than the 360 version

"arly adopters are getting screwed here...not cool."

what do you guys except huh ?
wanna buy a car? go buy it. if its cheaper 2 months later what do you expect ??? that the car resaler gives you cash ?
bought a dvd/bluray/hdvd for lets say 25$ and after 2 months its only 8 $ you mail warner brothers (forexample) for a replacement payoff ?

am i the only one who feels this is outrageous.

really getting tired of this bull. according to the original story, the new maps are going to cost 800 points. well maybe they will be timed and go free later.

till then and till they fix the patch,RB6V-2 can't come soon enough !

pity, it was such a great game...

Do you think that MS also payed off IW so that they get exclusive content. Or at the very least nothing about the PS3 is mentioned?
Shut this user up Let user speak
Elvfam511 - 648 days 15 hours ago
9.1 - Maybe
i think so i think MS did pay to get extra exclusive content but i think they should do that if its on different consoles man o yeah why is there a console war anyways if all three console are great even pc

I was wondering the same thing... is there an official award by a certain agency or what? I think it just depends on which site/mag/convention you go by though

I think it was a tie or something, nonetheless, its a great game like Bioshock.

So basically the people who bought the game on launch and stuff will have to buy the maps for it, in addition PS3 newcomers will have to buy as well? That seems kinda unfair considering early adopters are the only reason why there game was a success.

Umm I also feel that it will be hard to make the servers support different maps while some players have the map pack while others don't.
