I don't understand the gripes with paying for the extra content. You did read that word right? Lets do it again: EXTRA. When you payed 50$ you got your complete game fully functional. These are not patches that you're paying for, Bungie or what ever developer is making more maps/weapons/gameplay related ADDITIONAL content. They are not making you pay for a patch to remove bugs from the game. Why should they have to spend all this time working on new conent and not get any money for it? Its 5 friggen dollars! You would pay for for an expansion pack wouldn't you? Yes, because your paying for additional content, additional to the already complete game you purchased. Well the only difference is that you are downloading this instead up buying a CD and you usually get less maps/content in premium content, but that is why you're only paying 5$ instead of 20! I digress...


Either way, I think it kind of sucks that we are paying extra money for a couple of new additions to the games we play. I expect that the money I pay for my game at the store would cover everything, I paid for the game, and my annual XBL service, and I still have to pay $5.00 for a new map? $5.00 definately isn't an amount that is going to break me, but I would just expect that paying for the game would be enough and any extra content, would be extra free content.

And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.

We're just talking about games in general, not specifically Halo 2.

Does anyone see PC games charging for new maps? It's pointless to charge for a new map and unfair to the buyer. $50 for a game which is way over priced, 2 games = $100!, the Xbox itself retails for what like $130, and live subscription which is another $50. That's alot of money down the drain just to play one game. When you buy a PC game, that's all you have to pay for (w/ the exception of MMPOGs), and you can download official and user created maps to your heart's galore. I think Bungie are level headed enough to not charge for extra content.
