You can blame Activision for all that money grubbin' activities. All Infinity Ward did was develop the game, but Activision was the one that published it with the financial say!
At the end of the day, it's all about money and politics...
Double-edged sword, is what I say...
Either way you look at it, the PC consumer is still "ganked" in the end. If we decide to boycott and NOT purchase the PC version of the game, Activision will have a viable excuse to no longer have their developers create for PC gaming (the only thing executives sees are numbers, nothing else). On the other side, if we do decide to purchase/support this game on the PC, it says that we allow Activision to tell us what we SHOULD like and that we just have to DEAL WITH IT. Either way, Activision wins. Sad, so sad!
Maybe Activision had the final say, but i'm sure IW didn't give a damn. If they would care they would definitely done what is "right".
Believe me if no or most PC gamers would not buy the game then Activision would definitely take note. Although small than Console market, it still is a considerable revenue for them.
There is only one option here and it is not to buy the game.
