Why are the black ops games so much?

I was going to pick up BO2 during this sale but it was like 30$ which is only half of the full price. I just don't understand why ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games like ghosts and fun, but still old games like BO2 are selling for that much without any DLC. I mean I know they have to get as much money as possible but much more people would buy BO2 and BO3 if there was a bigger sale and if they were only like 20 or 30$. Also WWII doesn't count cause it sucks.

[Amadeus]

Ok well know BO2 is 67% off but still, seems much for a game that old

because it is activision

I was looking to pick up some of those games too.. BO1, BO2 & MW3 are nearly 10 years old but still $20? BO3 and Infinite Warfare are overpriced as well. I have no idea why these old AF games are still regularly priced as full priced AAA games @ $60?

If a game was full priced at $60 when it came out, it should be priced at $10 by now lol.

[Amadeus]

Yeah I mean ghosts is still like 60$ and that game was broken, only about 4 guns were used and riot sheild were op as ♥♥♥♥

Activision sets the price, and they still think that people are willing to buy those titles at that price. If you want to buy those titles at a cheaper rate then it's better to buy a used console, and pre-owned version of those games. For the same $60 you can get used COD 1 - BO3.

Even the original call of duty titles are stupidly overpriced. I'm technically in the "never buy mw2" club because I never thought the price was worth it. It's $15, and I'd say it's worth $10.

Yeah I keep hoping one of these days they'll bundle a bunch of the older games together but they probably have some executive who thinks he's got the Rolls Royce of gaming on his hands and offering too much of a discount would "devalue the brand"

[cSg|mc-Hotsauce]

Activision has not put their CoD games on any decent discounts since 2015.

[8ullfrog]

There is a bundle, it's like, $103

[cSg|mc-Hotsauce]

Still too much.

[8ullfrog]

My bad, it's $547 dollars. and eighteen cents. And that's with the whopping 48% discount.

That's right, the regular franchise price is $1,049.61

At that price point, the customer should be allowed to shoot at Bobby Kotic with a paintball gun.


There is a war chest that is COD, COD II, and COD United Offensive for $20.

I think I've seen it in goodwill for $10, but those keys would be used. Even if they weren't used when they went to goodwill, they do nothing to secure codes.

Hell, they don't even do disk checks. But they DO tape the game shut, in hopes you'll mess up and buy a demo disk instead of the game you wanted.

[cSg|mc-Hotsauce]

I own 1/3 of the CoD bundle and it is still over $350.

I own the old war chest.

[8ullfrog]

I went with the MOH series. But that went down the confusing toilet pretty quick. Isn't it a dead franchise now? Like they got Linkin Park to do a music video for them, and the game flopped.
