Pachter: UK Modern Warfare 2 price increase a business decision
Michael Pachter speaks the truth:
“The price increase is a business decision,” he said, noting that the pound is worth more today than when COD5 launched last year.“Activision knows it has a ‘hot’ game, knows that the market will pay an additional 10 percent, and has decided to increase price accordingly.”
He then goes on to say that should there be no backlash, we can expect similar pricing for these kind of blockbuster titles in the future. Now, keep in mind, yes, you can vote with your wallet and hold out on principle, but you would be missing out of Modern fucking Warfare 2. Your call.
