299190, It shouldn't, really. Posted by wallysmith, Mon Mar-14-16 09:58 AM
The $60 price point on consoles is an artificial number set a couple generations ago. It has zero bearing on the quality of the game nor the resources invested.
You can see the difference in PC pricing. The AAA games typically still release at $60, but many $60 console games release at $40 and $50 on PC.
In other words, COD costs $60 because of expectations and marketing, not because of the game itself.
