completely agree with amir... i dont think it could b said any better..... if its and exclusive title its one thing but if its on all platforms the content should be for all platforms
Exclusive titles are one thing. But, it's an entirely different thing to release a game on multiple platforms and only offer one of them exclusive content.
We all know how exclusivity works. A developer is about to come out with a multi-platform game and either Microsoft or Sony approach them and say, "We would like to have it for just our system." The company says, "Well, we would like to make money off of everyone's downloads from all platforms." And then Microsoft or Sony say, "Well, we'll give you the money they would have paid up front, so you don't HAVE to release it for them."
Now, I understand that exclusive titles (and now exclusive content) helps to drive console sales in the long run. But, I feel that essentially, these companies are stripping us of the right to have content that would have (at some point or another) been available to us. It makes me upset and I'm actually amazed that such business decisions haven't been outlawed yet.
So what do you think? Should this be allowed to happen or should Microsoft and Sony be stripped of the right to financially force exclusive DLC?
