MW2 - To Buy, or Not To Buy?
I am at a crossroads here, at this very moment. I REFUSE to buy MW2 because of the ridiculous $10.00 price raise for the PC version of MW2 that hath cometh from the throne of the kings, Activision. I knew this time would come when I would have to make a true decision about my purchasing of MW2, when there would be a great price deal, do I take it?
Right now, Walmart.com has a deal on the PC version of MW2 for $49.82 PLUS a $10.00 eGift card which can be used on future purchases at Walmart.com. So, essentially, you are getting this game for $39.82 if you look at it with the future free money on their site. Also, the console regular versions of MW2 also receive the $10.00 eGift card, but the price is still $59.99.
This leads me to the question, should I buy MW2 with this deal going on at Walmart.com? For I have made my stand to boycott this game because of the price raise and my word means something to me, for what is a man if you cannot trust his word? Or should I take this opportunity to get the game at a lower price, for even if I only play the game for a while, at least then I will be able to better serve you, the CoD audience, as site director here because I too will have played the game allowing me to better relate to all CoD fans and the news that I post for MW2?
After these last couple of months, my disgust for Activision (and some for IW) has been building up along with many of you, I do not know if I even want MW2 anymore even if it is cheaper than usual with this promo. From what I have seen so far, is MW2 going to be anything more than CoD4.2? I mean, of course the singleplayer will be great, every CoD always has a short, intense, amazing singleplayer. But will I not quickly be disgusted with the same multiplayer from CoD4, but new weapons and maps? Can I handle once again playing my main multiplayer PC game where I die more from nades than bullets? And I will once again be playing a modern warfare game that seems to attract people who think they know everything about the real world weapon counterparts and have to show off their elite knowledge to everyone...
What will you do? Click here for a link to the Walmart.com deal for those who have chosen to get the game now with this price drop albeit from Walmart.com, not from Activision.
And I am not completely full of myself as I realize this post sounded somewhat pretentious, but it was more interesting, in my opinion, then just asking the question, "Should I buy MW2 y'all?"
