Activision gives in to pure greed pricing the console version of Modern warfare 2 at Rs. 3499.
I love the Call of Duty series. I remember playing Modern Warfare multiplayer for hours on end and even though a lot of people didn’t like it, I ended up killing World at War as well. Next month was to be the happiest month of my life with Activision releasing Modern Warfare 2 across all platforms.
I had cleared out my social calendar and made sure I would stay indoors for at least a week. But now my plans have been quite literally peed upon by the greediest publisher on the planet, Activision.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD I just got off the phone with the admin of
Indianvideogamer who’s told me that the Xbox360 and the PS3 version of the game will be ludicrously priced at Rs. 3,499. The PC version of the game will be priced at Rs. 1,299 but its status remains “delayed indefinitely”.
Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
