I could just tell you that you cannot assign prices to each individual game feature. That those sorts of things are purely subjective. But, seeing as you claim to know more about maths than everybody here, I didn't think that would be a grand enough gesture.
If the Mythic Map Pack is $10, that would make each map $3.33. Halo 3 shipped with 11 maps, so the maps alone, excluding the Matchmaking service and Custom Games and Forge features, should cost $36.63.
If the ODST Campaign costs $15, then Halo 3's campaign, being around twice as long, should cost $30. Which means Halo 3 should have sold for more than it did with just maps and campaign alone. It also means that the second ODST disc should cost $61.63 at the least (only the price of the maps have been considered).
Speaking of the second disc, if the first only costs $30 (and the MMPP2 $10), surely the game should only cost $40, seeing as all the other content has been recycled from the previous game and is owned by the majority of people who will buy ODST.
Short version: this argument fails.
