EA is going to be so pissed.
UK retailer HMV is willing to give you a total of £47 off of Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops when you trade in EA's Medal of Honor, lowering its price to the low, low price of £7.99. Yeah, if that's not a huge slap to the face of EA, I don't know what is.
The deal runs from the release date of Call of Duty: Black Ops (November 9th) to November 15th. If I were you, I'd ditch that copy of Medal of Honor in favor of Call of Duty: Black Ops, but that's just me.
Call of Duty: Black Ops hits store shelves worldwide on November 9th, 2010.

IMO, very good marketing ploy

black ops will probably suck anyway, i mean rocket propelled knives? really?!?!

pls be joking
ahahaha that's incredible. its pretty bad when even retailers know that MoH was a poor mans CoD.
It doesn't bother EA any... They sell the game to the stores, the stores then sell you the game. Either way, EA made what they wanted to make
they already paid money for medal of honor so the only sucker is the customer

Interest will die though, destroying their player base, which is what makes them money.
No customers = No Money.

Oh no one store decides to rebel everyone's going to die.
Now you can tell somebody you got Black Ops for a tenner with a straight face.
It will have a massive effect, because COD is huge.

They're ballistic knives, idiot, and russians actually use those
I got bored of medal of honour so i might do this.

But the customer's already bought it. And wouldn't HMV lose a ton of money?
Douchebags, even though cod's better.

Rocket propelled? Are you stupid? They're shot out using springs.
The ballistic knife was (and I think still is) used by the Spetsnaz it is illegal in the United States however.

While I don't have any interest in Black Ops I have to say ballistic knifes and conspiracies are a fuckton better than rehashing CoD4, like MoH did.
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;25833223]Now you can tell somebody you got Black Ops for a tenner with a straight face.[/QUOTE]
when in reality it cost you more than the original game since you had to purchase MoH for full price and then CoD for another 10.
Sexy, I might do this (although I doubt they'll accept a PC trade-in, nobody seems to want to now with the age of Steam / 1-use activation). I've got another copy of Black Ops on the way, so I could sell it and make a decent profit (and make Medal of Honor's money back, in theory)
oh, that got to hurt!

It is a ballistic knife, they are real.

A ballistic knife is real and operates on springs not rockets, dipshit.
Sounds cool to me, too bad I didn't buy either knowing they both will/do suck.
