Amazon DotD 10/25: Call of Duty: Black Ops PS3/360 $34.99

why does Black Ops still costs so much, I bought this at launch for $40 (had $20 in AMZ credit) personally I don't think this game should cost more than $20 at this point, especially with BF3 coming out today and MW3 out in a couple of weeks

It's because it still sells very well. I'm pretty sure it's been in the top 10 NPD ever since it came out. Insane.

I wonder if Black Ops and MW3 will be in the top 10 for November.

CoDs always cost this much.

MW2 still retails for 39.99.
 
The same thing happens to every CoD. Once the next one comes out there are plenty of sales on the previous version. I bet u will be able to get black ops for $20 on a sale in December or January.

I can imagine maybe $25, but probably $30 on Black Friday (i'm very cynical about the whole CoD "cash cow" franchise), with sub- $30 prices maybe starting in January.

Of course, I could be totally wrong. I'm just glad I was able to get in on the $15 Prestige Edition clearance price on BestBuy.com!
