Well?
I don't because I don't care about what it usually offers. The only game that has DLC that I care for that I can tink of now is Fallout 3 and that's exactly why I'm waiting for the GOTY edition.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
I buy a fair bit, if it adds content, not really into map packs. I think it's great if they can extend the enjoyment I get from a favourite game, I dont think it's harming games. If your not happy with the original game don't buy it.
I find it funny when people hate on DLC. I remember the days when you WISHED you could have 3 more levels, 2 new characters, a little more content etc etc. Now it's cool to hate on it...at least on these boards.
So you never ever want anything else down the line right? :/It's a trend to scam extra money that should have been on the disc to begin with.

Most DLC should be free.
Why? Do you go to work for free?I find it funny when people hate on DLC. I remember the days when you WISHED you could have 3 more levels, 2 new characters, a little more content etc etc. Now it's cool to hate on it...at least on these boards.

New content is always nice if there's a reasonable amount of new content for what you're paying (and not $X for Horse Amour, or $5-10 for an extra quest or two). Expansion packs used to be much better value, imo.
The new trend of paying to unlock stuff that's already on the disc is not nice and should be stopped ASAP.

Come mow my yard and I'll say "Thanks"[QUOTE="KingTuttle"][QUOTE="MJPK"]
All DLC should be free.

So u agree with companys charging for thing that are already on the disc like RE5 versus mode?
I can't truly comment because I haven't played RE5 yet. However, if it's true then that is completely different than what DLC in my mind is and I would agree is bad business practice. Somehow I doubt that was the case with RE5 though. But I could be wrong.Yes I buy dlc if it seems like its worth the money. Cod map packs are always a good bet as well as halo maps. The lost and the damned for gta was fantastic.
I started with Sonic and Knuckles for the Sega Genesis, however it wasn't downloadable but same idea. I only buy expansions, I never buy weapons or armor for DLc though.

That hardly ever happens, it's nearly always abused.
What do you call the map packs for CoD WaW? Fallout 3? Battlefield 2?[QUOTE="MJPK"][QUOTE="KingTuttle"] Come mow my yard and I'll say "Thanks"KingTuttle

Fair enough. My point is that extra content can be worth it. It's worth it for you, and you spend money so it keeps dev's employed and motivated to continue to support your hobby.[QUOTE="MJPK"][QUOTE="KingTuttle"] I can't truly comment because I haven't played RE5 yet.

See that's NOT something I would buy and I agree that's ridiculous.That's what I mean.For every one DLC pack that's worth getting there is 20 rip-offs(horse armor,versus mode etc)

Sure there is garbage out there. But there is garbage product everywhere! Look at how much Starbucks coffee is, Red Bulls for 4 bucks a can. But for everyone of those scenarios there are still good deals out there that are worth your money. DLC is good. Dumb people paying 5 bucks for horse armor is bad...or well...stupid.I refuse to buy DLC. I am used to getting free content on PC so why on Earth would I pay for it now ?

I find it funny when people endorse massive milkage. The extra content should be included in a patch for free.

You pay for whats in the box.[QUOTE="osan0"]depends on the DLC. 20 quid for the oblivion expansion pack....perfectly reasonably imho...thats what id usually spend on an expansion pack anyway. 20 quid for some MP maps? not a chance in hell.Hanass
Expansion pack =/= DLC...
And it should all be free right? Heck why not make everything free too?! That's an awesome idea. I like free.[QUOTE="Hanass"][QUOTE="osan0"]depends on the DLC. 20 quid for the oblivion expansion pack....perfectly reasonably imho...thats what id usually spend on an expansion pack anyway. 20 quid for some MP maps? not a chance in hell.KingTuttle

$60 for a game is already WAAAAAAY overpriced. On top of that you don't mind paying for stuff that's supposed to be already included with the game? Rich people these days...
