I was so pumped when I saw RE 6 DLC on sale but then I realized game has 4 dlc not 3 and my excitement fell, I am not going to pay 10$ for 15-20 hours of mindless boosting, if it was on sale yes but otherwise nah I will pass.

I bought Ghosts a few weeks ago for like $13 from gamefly. Prefect condition. Microsoft needs to update their pricing because I feel like they have a 5 year old making them.

xPut Name Herex said:Diamond Thing said:Is it every 2 weeks Call of Duty Ghosts is on sale? It should tell you how poorly that game has sold compared to other CoDs that Activision is putting it on sale so frequently on all platforms, especially since the most recent iteration of CoD only rarely ever went on sale til Ghosts.Seriously how the hell you became a moderator, since you know little about gaming industry. Microsoft pays Activision to put the game on sale, not the publisher. The publishers have no control of sales at all. Finally I have to inform you that still CoD Ghosts sells well, just because you hate something, it doesn't mean that its bad, that's why it ends up being on sale everytime, because people buying it. If they wouldn't it would be pointle for MS to pay money to the publisher with no income at all.

PS: I really hate people like you who can't respect other people's tastes.

I'm still looking for anyone to do the racoon city mp dlc achs if anyone wants to do them let me know. Resi revelations is pretty good. Resi 4 is a classic and prob the best resi ever in my opinion. What the hell is dustforce?

I've always been curious about Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix and never have seen it on sale before. Can anyone recommend the game?

Hey! Cod Ghosts ISSS 34.99 euros, not 9,99 euros!

PS: I really hate people like you who can't respect other people's tastes.Actually, all of these sales are an arranged agreement between Microsoft/Sony/Steam/Nintendo and the publishers. The platform holders can't adjust the price of a game on their own without breaking a contract they have with the publisher allowing their game to be available for digital download.

And I'm not saying CoD Ghosts is a poor game, or that someone has poor taste to play it. I'm just merely stating that CoD Ghosts has sold poorly compared to previous iterations of the CoD franchise, a fact that Activision stated to their shareholders. This doesn't mean it hasn't sold well, just not as well as Activision would have wanted.

You literally contradicted your own sentence, there are things called opinions my friend, ours are different so please respect such as I respect other people's as well.

Finally, sorry I misunderstood you.

Awesome prices on the Capcom games, too bad I already own most the ones I care about.

And that's not called opinion when some people hating on a franshise that sells well than their favorite games.

One week BF4, next Ghosts. Two of the largest franchises relying on sales to push their 'broken, crappy' games through. Both were idiots to push incomplete games through.

And Ghosts and Battlefield were BOTH releasesd broken and have had many problems which have destroyed their sales. Doesn't matter who is putting it on sale, they are all still trying to make money off a defective game.

To purchase them, you have to have a Japanese credit card on file.
