Editorial: A Letter to Activision.

Oh Activision, Why have you forsaken me!

Did I not pay enough money to get CoD: Black Ops in my hands in the first place?

Have I not payed enough money for your DLC in your games previous iteration’s?

Will I not fork out enough money for map packs still to come?
