Modern Warfare 2 Resurgence Map Pack scheduled for June 3. I haven’t been playing anything the past couple of weeks, but I was playing Battlefield: Bad Company 2 instead of MW2. My guess is I’ll end up buying this map pack, so I hope it’s better. Fifteen bucks for a map pack is kind of high, but EA basically charging used-game buyers $15 to get some initial maps in BC2 is worse. (And EA’s future plan to charge used-game buyers $15 just to play online is even worse.)
On a side note, when reading comments on the recent Activision/Infinity Ward split, I’ve seen a lot of comments about how Activision is beating the franchise into the ground the same way they beat Guitar Hero into the ground. When I read those comments, I think the comment authors are implying that Activision should have spread out Guitar Hero releases instead of milking it. That’s dumb. People didn’t get bored of the franchise because there were too many songs available, there wasn’t much room for change in gameplay and it just got boring. Can’t blame a business for getting it while it’s hot.
