Mr. Kotick!
Games are getting more realistic every minute going by, right?
So why not charge guns online? I mean, how realistic is it that you always respawn with an expensive gun?
Let us make it cost like real weapons, since it's realistic.
Actually, not even respawning is realistic? Why not charge a small fee to go back to life? We can just tell people that this will encourage them not to break the realism of the game.

Well, I'm not sure if we can get him to record, as he isn't with us, sadly.
HOWEVER! We can fake it all up.
Imagine.
"70% of the profits obtained by Modern Warfare 2 has given enough financial help to us, and our science team has now created the RESURREAN v1.02! Sadly, it could have been used only one time before it broke down, and we did this to bring back to life a great composer, who repayed us by composing some new songs for us! Sadly, the process has made him photosensitive and he can't expose himself to light."

Mr. Kotick! Christmas is approaching!
My business plan is the release of the Christmas Warfare where players have to ability to shoot Santa himself in an MW2 Airport like scene. The story would involve you being undercover lieutenant in Makarov's group as he plans on blowing AN ENTIRE NATIONAL CELEBRATION OF THE US.
We should charge 49.99 just for the sake of christmas

>>42213849

Precisely! A simple shuffle option will be enough, as long as we add [Remix] to the end of each song.
By the way, about Starcraft 2, why pettily unbalance multiplayer? This would just ruin the game, let's just have the most basic unit for each faction.
Unless, of course, we can pay up for the hard work of our game designers creating a balanced game by charging with microtransactions use of units per match.
Soon, we'll be able to create the mythical city on the hills!

And excuse me if I ask, but what about the editor?
Games are becoming a form of art. Now, I'd like to ask something. How much is Vegas 9? 651 euros?
Then why give an editor away for free?
Let us charge 500 dollars for each copy of the editor, art has its costs sadly. And remember that MW2 had no editor, so we can say that "Activision fully supports the modifying of games to ensure a good gaming experience. However, we can't take a risk this big with unbalancing the game, so only some precise people may be able to use the editor". By the way, 500 dollars not for the full game, but for each part of the game, which makes in total 1500 dollars for each person who wants to edit completely. Oh, and to avoid piracy of this such great object we should make it able to be installed just one time on one single computer.

Good. Now, where was I? Oh yes. It's too much effort to be working on separate games. Couldn't we just combine some of our existing games? World of Guitar Hero? We could make them buy a controller shaped like a sword with plastic buttons. That way we could double the monthly fee, because it's double the game!
