Seriously? If the Call of Duty/Fallout DLC came out on the PS3 first, you would pay for them.  There is no way those would have been free.


So the whole extraction game and a medal of honor reboot can be free, but not the Call of Duty map packs? I think I understand the fallout argument, but Valve, and even Activision themself have released free DLCs for the PC, so I think I am right in imagining CoD map packs being available for free.

Medal of Honor - not sure is that a HD remake?  Anything like the CoD one that was given away free with the MW2 (think it was only hardened and prestige editions though)? Dead Space: Extraction - a ported over game that flopped?  Neither of those are really sales worthy and would not generate any sort of revenue that is close to a CoD map pack. I really don't you would find many that would agree with that assesment.

Exclusive content on one platform is bullshit. 

There's only two instances where I would've considerd this justifiable, and that was when EA offrered Dead Space: Extraction and Medal of Honor: Frontline on the Blu-ray disc alongside DS2 and the MoH reboot.  Even then, I'm sure they could've worked out some sort of download option for 360 owners.
