Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition Crazy Pre-order Prices on Ebay

It seems every time a big game comes out with a special edition, greedy people who want to make profit from hardcore gamers take advantage of the rarity of the product and sells it at an amped up price. First it was Bioshock's Bigdaddy figure, then Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' Fortune edition, and now, Modern Warfare 2: Prestige edition.

Lame ..,. who cares that a bunch of rich lifeless punks .. are willing to shell out 1 grand for a 60 dollar video game ....after the first week of magic .... they will feel extra stupid.

I mean how many people has a " collectors " edition of a game that will be worth something later ?

LinuxGuru5297d ago

Yeah, especially a special edition that was manufactured extremely cheaply and for a MASSIVE profit in Chinese sweat shops.

So lame...

I just don't get it myself-are these people just stupid or totally lazy? MY mate noticed that you could still preorder these at the normal price after seeing what they were going for on Ebay. He's bought the three he could afford and, even at an early stage in the bidding he stands to make a pretty huge profit.

But why woukld these people go to Ebay with the chance of being scammed completely and being sent nothing of value or not what you ordered when they could, more easily, buy it directly from a retailer if the looked for, like, a minute online? Or walked into a couple of stores? It's no more difficult finding this on the internet than it is just on Ebay itself so, I must admit, I dunno if normal plain idiocy covers this-unless they just want to pay as much as they can for thios shoddily made imitation set of goggles and some extra art or whatever.

People's laziness and idiocy are incredible at times but this really takes the cake for me-they can go for, like, five times their value and you can srill get them from retail outlets at the RRP even now if you must have the extra plastic tat made in nasty Chinese sweatshop conditions. It's this kind of thing that also shows the world that gamers are like overpaid sheep, even though it's a mere handful who'd pay over the oddsfor this bundle it looks,from the outside, like a massive scrum for this stuff! A few idiots with more cash than braincells are really making us all look a little silly.

Modern Warfare 2 Adds Pay-to-Win Items With Thermal Scope and Merlin the Dog, Here's How They Work

Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.

PunksOnN4G251d ago

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood251d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G251d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade250d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality251d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator250d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G250d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy85251d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai251d ago (Edited 251d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G251d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo251d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg251d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast250d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
