Yes, But if you din't own the game and wanted to play the price on the digital store is very high for a 5 years old game. Especially since none of the DLC is included. I wanted to play with my nephew who only owns a Xbox 360 and I was expecting the game to cost 20$ not full retail price.

The first Call of Duty game that will be made available on XBox One backward compatibility is Call of Duty Black Ops. 

Activision and Microsoft have combine effort to screw gamers by recently upping the price of a 5 years old game to $59.99. 

It likely comes with all the DLC does it not?

That's like the price of it on PSN as well.

Activision's CoD is like alot of Nintendo games; don't expect it to be cheap even if it's been out for so long.

Maybe digitally, but physically, you can easily find old CoD games for cheap. I've seen every game from Ghosts and earlier for a maximum $20.

Then go to a gamestop and get it for that price.



I bought mine during a gold sale.

There's a two pack with DLC at retail for $28.29:

I agree that prices are generally to high but its not like they hiked the price because of BC? So it's a bit misleading. Besides, buy the disc and you will get around it dirt cheap.



The first black ops is £30 on steam in the UK there are less than 100 games that cost more out of nearly 7000.  Activision only slightly cuts the price of games and then only after years it's always been that way.

When Disney rereleases old films they aren't released cheap they are released full price.

If you see Activision games cheap it's because they are either loss leaders or stock clearance.



"Activision and Microsoft have combine effort to screw gamers"

First it was BC doesn't matter, now BC is a way to screw players. the struggle is real...

can you give any prove that they're upping the price, or you just wanted your hot topic?

Even if they're doing it, digital it's not your only choice if you want the game, and above all nobody is forcing you to buy ot, or pay for it when you already owned it. Bs...

I can't...



Tim and The Princes...

You are better off buying COD BO3 last gen version which include BO1.



heard Activision did something simliar to Black Ops 1 and 2 on Steam at the same time Black Ops 3 released on steam.
