Multiple games are guilty. It really makes me angry when a game comes out, and a map pack comes out on the SAME damn day. Or the day after. Modern Warfare 2 is going to do it. Gears of War 2 did it. I'm sure other games have done it..Why do they always do that?

Because many people are going to buy it.

Welcome to online console gaming - where paying for what was a free service on the PC community is the norm.

Wasn't Gears' free to anyone who bought the game new? I say that would be good motivation to buy new, thus giving Epic much more money than the used copies sold at Gamestop, ebay, etc. There's your answer for that one.

It doesn't bother me. Maybe because I don't buy DLC. I always buy multiplats for PC so that I can get free what console gamers have to pay for.

No doubt. Everything is change......or in this case MS points, and wallet funds.

The day 1 DLC for Gears2 was the Flashback Map Pack which came inside every new copy of the game.

Buying a game does not give you the right to all of it's assets. Get over it.

Thank you sir! When you buy a game you are entitled to what the devs saw fit to put on the disc that is all. Call rip off, greed,whatever. The seller has a right to name the price for his product and buyer has a right to pay or not. The sense of entitlement in our society today is disgusting. Yes on PC things were free but guess what life is constant change, deal with it or whither away.
