I'll be getting a retail copy for sure. 5 euros less and a phyiscal copy. Although I've been spending way too much money. It's this time of the year again. :crying:
[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;25570311]Which will probably not work on steam. If you plan on doing that.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.codblackopsblog.com/call-of-duty-black-ops-pc-faq/[/url] Black Ops uses VAC according to this. So physical copies will have to be registered on steam.
I thought one of the points of digital distribution was to help lower the price because there isn't any packaging and shit.
[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;25570219]The price will probably not go down so don't get your hopes up.[/QUOTE] The Walmart in my town was selling Modern Warfare 2 for $49 two weeks after release, which is when I picked it up. Wasn't on sale or anything, my Walmart is just full of morons.
If I get a subsription for a monthly game magazine here called Power Unlimited, I get black ops for free, the magazine costs €45 for 12 months.

I remember getting invited to a launch party for World at War in Rotterdam. One of their writers made it pretty obvious when he got killed again.

59.99? Fuck no... I'll wait for Bad Company 2: Vietnam.
Russian retail version for a meager 15 bucks, here i come!
It'll be a terrible game filled with 12 year olds who think they're tacticool.
I told my Xbox fanboy friend and he was like "They dont want any poor people playing it" What a fag
[QUOTE=Asm;25570847]I told my Xbox fanboy friend and he was like "They dont want any poor people playing it" What a fag[/QUOTE] Then why did he cheap out on an Xbox 360?
I'm thinking of getting it, did Treyarch confirm if you were VAC banned in MW2, you wouldn't get banned in Black Ops?

[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;25569861]I can't believe people are still going to buy this even though it will probably be hacker infested and it cost 60 fucking bucks.[/QUOTE] And you know why it's going to be infected with hackers like MW2? because of idiots like you who have their heads stuck so far up their asses that they can't simply let people buy and enjoy the things they wish to, people who have a retarded firm belief that Activision is "killing the gaming industry" when in fact it did fuck all but maybe, POSSIBLY, increase the price for upcoming titles by 10 dollars. Big fucking whoop.

lol activision
[QUOTE=mobrockers;25570308]Guys, just buy them off of some russian or chinese reseller, like g2play and such.[/QUOTE] There is a huge problem with that though. Valve have taken to rooting out the reseller keys, and removing the game from the account. [url]http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18080861&highlight=g2play[/url]

[editline]22nd October 2010[/editline] Also, g2play HAS refunded, or given new keys to people that got their key removed, and g2play themselfs have taken measures, so that this won't happen again, they are buying the mw2 keys from somewhere else now.
I'll just pick it up off game for £29.99
Fuck that, £40 cunts.
I'll buy it when it goes on a Steam sale.... Oh wait.
Ill probaly buy it just for the Cheesy Cinematic-esque SP.

Won't playing Modern Warfare 2 give the same experience?
Dunno but all new PC games here the retail PC version costs 55 euros, what`s exactly as much as other blockbuster titles.
It must of costed Activision a shit load to have such a huge COD:BO ad.
