It's ridiculous to consider your obviously negative opinion of the franchise has any bearing on a fan's decision. It's a first day purchase for the same reason any other game is a first day purchase, people want to play the game and don't want to wait to play it. You want to know what Modern Warfare 2 gives me day one? 10-15 new multiplayer maps, customizeable kill streaks and my clan is switching to it. That's it. That's all I care about. I want it day one because I just want new maps to learn in multiplayer and because I want to continue playing with my friends. It's not like the price is going down anytime soon. Modern Warfare got a $10 price cut a few months back, after a year and a half on the shelves. Is that what we should all wait for? The price cut that'll come in 2011? Please. Just like you might want a number of games on day one for no logical reason other than to have them immediately, that's why people want Modern Warfare 2 day one. I actually find the question offensive that you obviously picked this game to single out when there isn't a game outside of sports titles that have a legitimate reason to be purchased day one. The worth of the game is up to the individual considering purchasing it. Save your negative bias for later because you didn't hide it well in this thread at all. |
I don't have negative opinion of the FRANCHISE. I thought single player was great for the short run-through. I also still have World at War, due to the zombie mode in it. It is just now, after I realized I wouldn't be playing multiplayer (and wanted store credit), that I decide to trade it in for store credit. I want to get the original again, unless the sequel is shown to be the one to get. I am figuring COD4 is going to be getting down to $30. So, the question is, do I get the $30 version (I am not playing offline) or the sequel for $60?
