XBL question for all

First off, I've got no problem paying for online service to play games online. I love nothing more then after completing a shooter on my 360 then having mad fun in matches on XBL :)

Now, I think pricing is totally unfair when it comes to Downloadable content. I mean, why is it... I can get 2 packs for Rainbow Six Vegas that have 2 new online modes and like... 10 new maps for free (not to mention how big the maps are, too) but I have to pay 800 MS points for 4 new maps for Gears of War? Not to mention the maps in Gears are never all that big, for reasons, I know but still, that's not the point.

Also, Guitar Hero II... 500 pts for what? 4 songs! When only 1-2 of the songs are actually worth it o.O

Who else thinks some of the prices for downloadable content is a total rip off?

same here i mean like in crackdown 800points or 10$ just 4 3 guns, 3 weapons, and a whole bunch of useless stuff i know wut ur sayinmohammad93

Wow. I didn't know that's how much Crackdown's stuff cost. What a joke.

i concur. the guitar hero 2 song track packs that are for download, are 500 points for 3 songs.

does anyone know if the priced crackdown content is going to be free in time and also does anyone know if oblivion is going 2 have any free contentmohammad93

For people like me that played the crap out of the co-op in that game the download was worth it.

Edit: How could I forget the Proximity Charge and the Cloaking Device!

as long as people buy crack they will sell crack!

PS:stop buying crack!

I dunno. I guess I was just expecting them to allow the player to level up even higher. I played Crackdown for a while, held onto it until word got out concerning the DLC, and then traded it in. It was a fun game, but I don't play on live all that often, so I was a little disapointed with the single player stuff. I was just hoping that the DLC would revolve around that aspect.

And to Scriptwrite: that's why I don't buy anything from live in regards to new multiplayer maps. I will pick up Shimmering Isles at some point because it's an expansion pack, but I refuse to pay for multiplayer levels. I won't pay for new weapons or cars that should have been included from the start, and I won't buy songs for GH2. I just don't see the point in paying 60 for a game, and then dumping an additional 10 or 20 into it. If you add it up, given the cost of the 360 elite plus all the DLC people pay for, they could easily afford the PS3.

yea cuz 500 points is about almost 5$ and payin 5$ for 4 new songs is ridiculous i mean like 4 more dollars could get u a music album i mean either cut the points in half or make the microsoft points cheapermohammad93

Actually it's over $5 and it's for only 3 songs.

well you must rememeber its not all up to MS, i mean epic also has a big say in how much they want the DLC to be, and the other game developers as well, not just the publishers.
