I think CoD pricing is affected by the fact that usually, it's mum that's paying for it

Are zoomers lining up around the block to play the Black Ops 1 campaign? Just seems absurd after over a decade to not drop the price to a reasonable level.

The reason is most likely because they want people to always but the newest game because they don't want to split up their player base.
