Guitar Hero II song packs now Live, pricey

Apr 11th 2007 11:38AM (Joystiq)
What dissapoints me is that this pricing is so out of line with what Guitar Hero 1 (game only) costs for the PS2. That's availble for $40 (3200 Microsoft Points) with 47 songs. That works out to 85 cents (68 points) per song, and has generally been accepted as a fair value.

Even if you want to consider it as upgraded GH-2 content, and take that as a $60 game, with 48 songs, that's $1.25 (100 points) per song. That is still way under what these are costing. If you question the assumption of it being $60 worth of songs in the game (as some of the costs surely went into developing the gameplay engine) that price per song only drops.

Not buying any of the song packs at this price, unlikely to buy 2nd guitar now as the long term play value to me has greatly diminished.
