Why not just put it in the game now... While they are still making it?

They actually explain why in the article.

That doesn't say why they can't, it says why they wont.

There is no reason why they couldn't have it in the game ready on release if they wanted to.


What DLC isn't something that could've been included in the original game? Oblivion and Fallout 3 DLC could have as well, but eventually you have to draw a line in the sand and decide what's going in the game and what you can finish after it releases. At least it's something substantial, which is something more than you can say for about 99% of other DLC.

There is a difference between hours upon hours of extra locations/weapons/missions... And something that lets you have replays.

If this isn't free, it's just another reason why this game will be a rental.

How so? Give me a good reason why any of those shouldn't be in the main game other than that they didn't want to delay the game.

They should have been in the main game.

The point is, Fallout 3's DLC was missions, levels, items and areas. Some things even impacting the story. And adding way more than 20 hours gameplay on.

Crackdown 2's is a Replay mechanic... That's it. If it costs anything to buy, it is simply a money making scheme.

You know Carl, I hope you realize that no game is 100% finished in the eyes of the designer upon release.

Yes... I know that.

The fact is there is no need to charge for this. If they do... Then it's just another reason as to why it's a rental for me.

Already did. I'm just mad that I'm unable to grab the DLC I bought for it and throw it away as well.

I would be aswell. I mean, all those DLC missions need to be thrown.

So you'll not buy it based upon a feature which you'll probably never use which may or may not have a price tag attached?

Exactly. Would've been much sweeter if there were already in the game to begin with.

DLC is teh evilz
