| Pipedream24 said: I understand where you coming from but I disagree. As long as I am not paying to unlock content that is already on the disk and the developer is adding to the experience, I have no problem paying a few bucks to extend the life of a game I enjoy. Developers and publishers are having a tough time managing the increasing cost of producing a game. They need to find a way to generate extra revenue and DLC is part of the solution. I would much rather have the choice to pay for extra content then see game prices rise to $69.99 as the base price. I also don't like the fact that PC gamers get the same content for free (I strictly play on consoles). But I think that will be changing soon. Between subscription based services and distribution through Steam, I think PC gamers will begin to pay for the updates one way or the other.

"WAR is a racket. It always has been.
It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives"---Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler
