A great game is worth full price whether It's an expansion pack or not.

I would have gladly paid $50 for Brood War or Lord of Destruction.

Halo 3 ODST will be a great game.

As much as I loved some expansion packs, I would have felt ripped off if I had to pay full price for them O.o

I guess we have different views then, but in my view I believe that part of the cost of a game is supposed to be used to recuperate the losses encured by the creation of the game, and then some extra money is charged for profit. Therefore an expansion pack, that should be utilizing the resources from the previous game, should cost less than the original product (the cost of making the engine, original models, etc). Willingly charging full price when the cost should be lower simply screams an unreasonable attempt to get profit, than an reasonable attempt to get profit with the original product.
