Grampy said: If this is such an issue and the later content is that extensive, why not just sell it as an expansion pack on a new disk. They did that with United Offensive which was sold as an expansion pack to COD on the PC. It had to have been the greatest "expansion pack" ever. I liked it more than the original game. |
Well look at that, at least there is on smart cookie here. This sorta thing use to be such common practise so I to do not understand why all this bitching (if real). Disc 1 would be the one player game and disc two would be the multiplayer disc.
Now they could go about this a few ways.
1) Disc 1 have the current levels multiplayer, then release an expansion of extra levels later ( for say $20bux).
2) Or release it as a two disc game from beginning single player game disc, plus expansion with ALL levels old and new and extra guns etc.. on Disc 2.
I think 2) is probably better for the Wii audience as they would see it as extra value from the start. If packaged right say a special edition with say some art work, audio from the game, PLUS the extra levels guns etc multiplayer disc and still sell the single disc game for no online players as a seperate game. This would help sales even more.
Nintendo and Activision could come up with some sorta deal of compensation or say pay less royalties to Nintendo for having the game on Wii etc.
