Most games are like that now, think DAO. For me, I couldn't care less about DLC unless it cost less than 5 bux and even with that I'm iffy. Play main game, pass, and move onto next game.

The DLC is free as long as you are the first person who bought the game. I guess this does not upset me as much as it upsets a lot of people who play the majority of their games on console as the used market for PC games went away 10 years ago.

Don't buy a used game simple as that.

I've noticed lately a lot more games are coming with perks from being either..

A) Originally owned
B) Pre-Release Perks
C) Getting one of the first released games (limited quanty)

I personally don't see an issue with it. Heck its like the people getting ****ed off about not getting Forza 3 Collectors edition and us that got it are getting free cars, mind you we did pay for them in one way or another.
