Dear Raven,

Dear Raven Software,

I have to say that Raven has shown poor form in releasing the Weapon X Arena as a downloadable content for 800 Microsoft points / $10. My reason for this is they gave to free to people that pre-ordered it from GameStop. What about all those fan's that pre-ordered, and didn't have the option of doing it with GameStop? Which if I knew it was going be as good as it is I would have pre-ordered, and if I knew it was going give the downloadable content for free from GameStop I would have probably done both.

How about those people that paid the full $59.99 to get it on the day it released (me!), and don't even get a discount? Why would I get a discount?

Amazon's Newest Price!

That is a lot cheaper than I paid for it to have it the day it came out, plus I got an email from Amazon to save $5 off of that price (use promo code XMENWLV5 at checkout). Well I guess they need to do what they need to do to make a dollar. I mean the economy does suck now doesn't it? I know my opinion of it is not to buy from Raven, and put forth effort to not buy from Activision. I would say since April I have bought 12 games, and received a system for my birthday in April. The economy must not be hitting me as hard as it is for Activision.

Guess the good thing is Raven don't produce a whole lot of games per year. Which looking over since 2000 they have made 13 titles, of which I own five. I was going purchase Wolfenstein but now I know if I do they are going get my $60 bucks, drop the price by $20, and sell some downloadable content for $10. So nix that idea, and anyone else I can spread the word to.

Once again I vent about them, and to my friend that works there. Who knows what will happen but the point would stand regardless if I got the content or not. Anyways if I inspired anyone please feel free to send them a message, as I already have.
