| madskillz said: Interesting. When the DLC was announced for the 360/PC, PS3 bots were like 'So what.' Now, as details emerge and they find out they can play past the credits ... ahhhh ... they are screaming bloody murder. What's the deal? The DLC is extra content and an expansion that would naturally allow you to play past the credits. It's not a conspiracy or the like - it wasn't like it was hidden, but that's what DLCs are, most times. FO3 owners on the Box and PC knew it would be an expansion. What is there left to discuss?! |
While PS3 owners shouldn't be going 'arghh unfair' I do think whether this type of thing is good for the consumer is something to discuss.
And when I say consumers I mean the average joe who doesn't check the internet to see if a game that takes his fancy is going to have paid for DLC on one system not available on another.
IMHO this trend of exclusive DLC is not good for gamers and I mean in all cases, whether the PS3, 360 or Wii versions get it. It's just a competitive weapon too far in my opinion. I'd rather developers had to place their bets fully and either be fully exclusive or fully multi-platform. Same for timed exclusives as well - another dumb competitive idea that I'd like to see the back of.
Maybe it's just my more PC gaming background, but I can't believe console gamers accept this as fair play to the extent they seem to. It's like buying a game and finding you have extra levels because you have an NVIDA card instead of ATI.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
