As we all know Activision has decided to raise the price of CoD: Modern Warfare 2.

'Analyst Michael Pachter reckons Activision's controversial decision to raise the price of Modern Warfare 2 has nothing to do with a weak Great British Pound.
"The price increase is a business decision," he told Eurogamer, noting that the pound is worth more today than when Call Of Duty 5 launched last year'
Activision knows it has a 'hot' game, knows that the market will pay an additional ten per cent, and has decided to increase price accordingly."
"The repercussions could be significant and lasting. If Activision is successful, we may see increases for other 'hot' games in the future
This time I agree with Pachter... Activision are just trying to cash-in on MW2 and I think its bad for all gamers as a all. Activision are trying to set a price of £54.99 in the UK for MW2. My thoughts are that activision are just getting greedy..... You thoughts on this issue ???
PC gaming rules.....
