If you are a proud user of the PS3 and you hate how microsoft can just run over us because its a multi billionaire company.

Then don't buy the Stimulus Package, unless they set a fair date for both consoles and PC can get the map pack.

Spread the word to your friends and count up the people.

Write topics about this on other websites, post videos on youtube, catch the attention of Infinity Ward.

the reality of it is that few people care about your opinion and no matter what, they will always buy map packs for COD even at a whopping $15.

Not sure if you're aware, but Sony is a multi-billion dollar company as well.

Yeah I find it annoying that Microsoft rolls that way just to be first on DLC, yet I don't care in this case cause I've stopped playing MW2 quite a while ago.

Sony did the same thing in the ps2 era, and sony stock is higher then Microsofts at the moment so i woundn't consider MS larger at the moment.

I'd buy DLC were it to further the single player of Spec Ops experience, but I'm not paying a dime on that multiplayer. So.... I'm in! :P

you sir, are a dimwit. let us consider... $60 gets you: - Single Player Campaign, 10 or so hours of gameplay; much longer if difficulty is turned up - Spec Ops mode, including 25 missions which range from 5 - 20 or even more minutes of gameplay each - Full Multiplayer mode with SIXTEEN MAPS, including 40+ weapons as well as attatchments and equipment $15 gets you: - 3 new maps for multiplayer and 2 recycled ones When you consider how much content you get in the full game, each individual MP map makes up only a small fraction of the sum total, equal to pennies. $15 is a rip off. will I buy it? probably

Microsoft didn't pay.

They don't need to. Infinity Ward and Activision need them, not the other way around.

Guitar Hero/Call of Duty sell the most on Xbox. Of course they're going to cater to Microsoft to keep a good relationship, they both benefit. Microsoft gets early content, Activision gets their money.

While Call of Duty is played a lot on Playstation, PS players care more about their exclusives. Uncharted 2, Socom: Confrontation, etc. There's also StarHawk, Killzone 3, Socom 4, etc. to look forward too.

PS: Glad to see you had a different reason other than "OMG they're charging us $15! for 5 maps ($3 per map) instead of $10 for 3 maps! ($3.33 per map)"

$3 bucks a map. I for one think Activison is being greedy. A mapack should be no more than $9.99

lol I "protested" by not buying MW2 in the first place:P

Either way, $15 for a couple of maps? Proves there's a sucker born every second... (especially with such a broken online structure that is COD)

$5.99 is really the only logical choice. Slightly over a dollar per map. That will get more buys...

Sort of like the Uncharted 2 dlc. 2 maps for $3.99.

Don't blame Microsoft, blame Infinity Ward and Activision, you know those guys favor the 360 when it comes to Call of Duty.

but when you put it in comparison with DLC like Zombie Island and General Knox's Armory (Borderlands) which are both 10$ for about 10 hours of gameplay and story enhancements,,,, $15 seems alot for 5 maps especially if two are remakes, and it does nothing to enhance the gameplay.

YEA THEY ARE GREEDY, MW2 had record breaking sales, its sold millions, and made a HUGE profit, the least Infinity Ward/ Activision could do is reward its fans with a free map pack.

Give it a few months, you'll turn on BF:BC2 just as you did COD:MW2. I never liked MW2 from the get go but BC2 got old fast.

It's just 30 days. Microsoft just wasted a lot of money for something that isn't a big deal.

Don't blame Microsoft, blame Infinity Ward and Activision, you know those guys favor the 360 when it comes to Call of Duty.

they dont favor the 360, they favor money, and since they sell more copies of their games on the 360, theyll try to appeal to the 360 first to make more money. Plus M$ spent all the money they got from charging for online and spent it on the right to that DLC

no they didn't, I just had to say that. guarantee someone's gonna hate on me for being sarcastic.

I believe people still play MW2 because it makes them feel pro after a kill with pretty points. It's an unbalanced camp simulation at its core. Although I hear Bad Company 2 is getting the job done. Need to try it.

I just can't believe they are using two maps from COD 4. Judging by the trailer they look identical to COD 4
