Why Call of Duty Elite Is Not A Rip-Off After All

GameZone's Matt Liebl, who was previously wary of the Elite service, has finally decided that Call of Duty Elite is not a rip-off and lists his reasons for getting behind the service.

I'm liking what I am hearing so far.

We will have to wait for the actual content/service to arrive, but I wish we had this for Gears 3!

DarkTower8055046d ago

I still have yet to hear if having Elite premium for ps3 will bypass the MS/Acti agreement for early dlc. Or do non premium ps3 players have to wait that much longer?

gamingdroid5046d ago (Edited 5046d ago )

Activision probably just moves the release date over 30 days for PS3....

hiredhelp5046d ago

I read the list of whats inc whats not. Nothing said about deadicated servers thats sad.

Baka-akaB5046d ago

Wanna spot a rip off ? Well it's whenever something need that kind of apologetic articles .

You wanna spend your money that way ? Then do it and stop feeling guilty about it , so much that you would invent BS excuses about why it's ok .

Ducky5046d ago

I'm not seeing the BS excuses.

The guy just explained Elite's features and said why he thinks they're worth it.

It's an opinion piece and all he's doing is stating his opinion in comparison to how he initially felt.

Baka-akaB5046d ago

to each its own , i can't help feeling it's a bunch of excuses , just like the bunch of "why its ok .." articles we saw for dlcs and plenty other "bad" things .

Most of what he described has been available for free in quite a few games . Now it's getting sold in a package deal .

lance425045d ago

You would be spending this money on the dlc when it comes out anyways...so why is that being included in a package deal a bad thing? No one is forcing you to get it.

Also, why do you feel DLC is a bad thing? If you love a game, why wouldn't you want more content for it?

Brixxer6005046d ago

Certainly not something i'm interested in paying for . Does anyone know how it will work out on PS3? because as far as i'm aware DLC is going to be a timed exclusive for 360 .

chriski3335046d ago

No no its still a rip off for sure

Flashwave_UK5046d ago

shhhhh they dont want u to say that

dillydadally5046d ago

If you're the type of person that buys all the DLC, there's no question that it's NOT a rip off, as you get it all but more often and for less than if you bought it individually. But then you have to ask yourself if the DLC is a rip off.....

miamicanesruleall5045d ago

This call of duty elite is one of the reasons I'm finished with the call of duty series. Activision are too greedy. They lost a customer, and I know I'm not the only one. Instead this fall I'll be playing gears, uncharted, arkham city, rage, deus ex, and perhaps battlefield 3 if I need to scratch that itch. I don't think I'll miss cod at all.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5501d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905501d ago (Edited 5501d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5501d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5501d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495501d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5501d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5501d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
