DLC started on the dreamcast and it took MS around a year to copy it, most likely a lot sooner. It was free then for the dreamcast and MS wasted no time in charging for dlc. the PS2 or gamecube where not online capable untill later the ps2 had an add on so that feture satyed off those consoles. But then next gen it was a standard in all 3 consoles. Now to see a game without it its like finding a unicorn. That was incredibly fast if you aske me, A year not 20 like you like to exagerate.

I'm cant say anything about exclusive deals cuz thats done by the console owners to get people to buy their console. But its a stretegy that EAA is trying to imitate. That little service is like a platform on its own in wich you pay to be able to get something otherwise unabailable. Its ovbious to see where this is going, its not a matter of "if", its "when".
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
