This is absolutely ridiculous. Say what you will about agreeing or disagreeing with Bungie's practices. The way that they are handling this whole situation? Awful. It blows my mind that the company I love so much is doing things like this.
I've just discovered that Xbox will be paying the same price for DLC as play station and be getting less content. It's one thing to pull that shit with just extra content in the game. But [i]exclusive dlc IN the dlc????[/i] I don't care who you are, playstation, xbox, whoever. You can't tell me that's not a shitty way to treat gamers.
5 or 10 years ago if you told me "Bungies gonna make a game for playstation too and they're gonna go down the same path as every game company and rip gamers off" I'd laugh at you. That's just something....so.....not Bungie-like. You'd have to be a fan of them like me to understand why it's off seeing them do this. It doesn't feel right.
And it's not just this. Advertising some sort of "beta test" and making it 8 days max? 3 to 4 days for Xbox players? I probably won't even be able to play it in that time frame. I'll be on this thing called "summer vacation" and unless it gets cut short then I'm not signing up on the 24th, that's for sure.
I'm not gonna whine or cry about it or link some meaningless begtition. I'm just saying it how it is: crappy business practices. I know everyone does it nowadays but......man. I didn't expect this from Bungie.

I'm just kinda annoyed that I paid 5 bucks for Beta, and I only get four days.
