Have you ever repainted your living room? I haven't, but I watched my Dad do it once, so I got the gist. Essentially what happens is that you get a bit bored with your increasingly dowdy Eggshell white walls, then you go mental with a fresh coat of Magnolia. For a short while, it's amazing: the room is brighter and fresher, you feel happier and more productive just for standing in it. Then, after a while, the newness fades and you forget that it was ever any other colour than boring old Magnolia. You're happy enough, but the burst of newness has faded. Until you hear about Blossom White that is! A snip at only 1200 Microsoft Points!
And here we are, the final day of the Xbox Live Countdown to 2012 Daily Deals. We saw some good deals these past 12 days (Bastion, Gears of War 3 Season Pass) and some really bad ones (Hole in the Wall, Leedmees) but it all ends with this final deal of Call of Duty content being up to 50% off.
That sucks ass
I think everyone was hoping for the Black Ops maps to get a 50% off
Instead we get discounts on maps no one plays anymore
Lame
Modern Warfare 2 is still highly played but everyone most likely already owns the maps, so this deal doesn't make too much sense.
There's 55K people playing at most now in the US at like 6PM. That's pretty much an abandoned game in todays world.
Pretty dumb too not include Black Ops packs in the sale, I might have actually picked up the Zombie pack if it was.
"There's no denying that the map pack is pricey, but at the end of the day, the Resurgence Pack DLC bundles together a balanced set of maps that offer enough variations to keep nearly all Modern Warfare 2 fans happy."
Orange: At a hefty 1,200 points, map packs for Modern Warfare 2 are no small investment. However, given how much time fans of the game spend playing online it’s understandable that any fresh content is devoured voraciously. Fortunately developers Infinity Ward put no small amount of thought into these new player maps and like to serve up a wholesome variety of environments that offer the widest range of strategies possible to the fans.
so again it is $15 for 2 new maps, and I predict it will sell millions as well. well I wont be one of them,
Hit the nail on the head.
Than play this game
