    You know what’s crazy? The original Modern Warfare 3 from 2009 is still $40 on steam. Black Ops 2 from 2012 is $60.

    COD pricing is insane. For comparison the Halo MCC which includes six games, two of which are remastered, is $40.

      I think CoD pricing is affected by the fact that usually, it’s mum that’s paying for it

        Are zoomers lining up around the block to play the Black Ops 1 campaign? Just seems absurd after over a decade to not drop the price to a reasonable level.

        No, I don’t believe that’s the reason.

        The reason is most likely because they want people to always but the newest game because they don’t want to split up their player base.
