Activision exceeds own expectations in fiscal Q2

I think its worse that they are increasing the price of MW2 for the PC and the brits. This could set an example for the rest of the industry.

Of course they are, how will they ever be nominated for Biggest Douche in the Universe Award if they didn't?

They switched roles with EA and became the corporate entity that just wants MONEY. (This excludes their wonderful but undeservingly punished slaves, Blizzard.)

Meanwhile, EA is now focused on what they should be focusing on: making GAMES, not crapfests.

I was hoping they wouldn't so that I could win again this year.

Prototype likely is winning just on its multiplatformness alone.

prototype is above 1 million for sure, so yeah, prototype is winning.

HI I'M DAISY!

Hi David. Nice to meet you.

You mind if I ask you a question?: What are your thoughts on...sweatshops.

Sweatshops are dirty

Hi, I don't care.

Wait. Wait! You're not new here!!! How...how dare you pull a fast one and make me feel like a darn fool. Now I need to hide in a corner.

A reply to your parting word: Yes. Yes, he is.

Yep, Bobby just looks out to the world everyday with a smug, pompous smile. Prick, indeed.

I bet if Alex Mercer absorbed him he'd be horrified at the memories he received

Yeah but must of us do it begrudgingly with the only solaces being that some of the games are good quality and that the developers get some of the money too

Says you. I've been heading a boycott movement for months now, and haven't purchased a single new Activision title in a long while.

For all you ATVI haters, if you hate them so much but cant resist buying their titles then I suggest you just provide your patronage to the used game shelves at G-stop. That way you only contribute to GME coffers. Seems like the lesser of two evils if youre a hater.

last i saw soldier of fortune was $ 5 - $ 15 on amazon.com and not long after release??

you dont expect the price of games to go up at some point in time?
or at least tests? time warner tried that crap with tiered internet in select markets and dropped the program after bad press.

if the same amount of people in Europe buy MW2 for the higher price as MW1 then activision and every other publisher knows they can charge more for high profile games...

heck most of the time i have seen games releasing at $ 40 now than games releasing over $ 60 like you claim...

therefore the price of games has somewhat decreased over time compared to the MUCH HIGHER cost of putting the game in your hands today.

activision has released a few $ 40 game this year and so have other publishers...

dont buy the game crybaby.. j/k but thats not going to stop 10 MILLION people from buying the game....

well, in a fair comparison (PS3 sales only), infamous sold more.

birk- thats like saying COD sold more copies than killzone 2... but remember COD4 or COD5 sold more copies than halo 3 too....
