Having had Xbox live in years past when i lived with my parents (before the new dashboard even =O), I've only just had it in my own house for about 2-3 months now...
Now, at first i thought DLC was the coolest thing around...Games i thought i had finished, played through repeatedly, got bored of the same old storyline & missed playing (Fallout 3, Borderlands) suddenly had new missions, weapons and excitement that i could aquire from the comfort of my armchair....
However, Just recently i've been thinking...It seems developers aren't just making DLC to add-on to a game that has run it's course...It's like they're making a game and holding back a portion of it, just to release it a couple of weeks later and screw a little more money from us gamers...Which i feel is abit of a bum move...If i've just paid 40 and upwards for a game...And i'm aiming for the 1000G...I don't want DLC released in a couple weeks that will update the GS to 1250 or whatever...And then feel that i HAVE to buy the DLC in order to fully 100% the game...
but if you get banned you lose off of the dlc you bought as you can't use it on a new system seems to me it's a waste of money
Does this not seem unfair to anyone else?!...If not, then what's your opinion?!

I'm kind of on the fence about this one. I think that developers are definitely not putting their full effort into making their games anymore and the DLC content definitely doesn't add that much more to the game especially when it only adds a few missions or a new skin for character/weapons and it costs $20? I mainly play Call of Duty and they still sell their map packs for 1200 MS Points and they only give us like 4 extra maps and half the time the map is a remake from an old map that most of us didn't want to see again in the first place.

i see dlc as a add on nothing more, as long as i get a fully functioning game im okay with it. not like you have to but it, its a option. what would be bull shit is say you had to get the dlc or you wouldn't be able to play
