Before people start using the argument "Xbox has Halo, COD DLC etc", the discussion here, is not exclusives. It's paying the same for less content. It costs Playstation players NOTHING for Xbox players to play Halo. PS players don't need to pay any of their money. Same goes with PS exclusives. However, Xbox and PS are being charged the same and one of them gets LESS. This is the discussion. Not titles than affects no-ones wallets.

All of the exclusive content will be released on all platforms next year, you're not missing out on anything or paying more for less, you just have to wait for the exclusive period to end.

A -blam!-ing year is a little ridiculous, dont ya think?
-
Maybe we paid the same amount for the same amount of content, and PS gets a little on top because Sony paid Activision/Bungie more money on top? Saying Xbox got less for the same amount makes it sound like all the PS exclusives were intended for Xbox as well at the start, and then removed for some odd reason.

They were made and intended for Xbox as well. They wouldn't create something as indepth as a Strike and not think about putting it on all platforms. Activision put out a bid system and Sony won it. The issue here is you're saying Sony paid more for their PS users. That isn't our issue. We are all gamers, I chose my platform based on certain games and other gamers picked differently. We only care about games, not who has paid the most for 'our' system. If PS get an exclusive, that is fine. If Xbox pay for exclusives, that is fine, but to charge both Consoles the same for different content because of the game publishers greed, shouldn't affect OUR wallets. If PS got some bonuses in their Guardian Edition, like weapons and armour, cool. However, we are both paying for an expansion and paying the same price. We aren't talking about some exotics or armour perks. We are talking about something as large as a Strike. It's a lot of content considering there's only 1 Strike being offered outside of the bonus one. Just think, less content for same price is a bit cheeky.

Some people view the glass as half-empty ... some DLC removed for Xbox users. Some people view the glass as half-full ... some DLC added for PS users. For me, it's not the exclusivity that I have a problem with. It's that when the "missing" DLC is finally made available for Xbox, will a) people still be playing and/or b) players be charged $5, $10 to get what wasn't offered in the expansion packs?

Playstation also gets one PvP map, two weapons, three armor sets and loading screens A lot of people do not like the Dust Palace strike, me included. Three two-wave defense while Dinklebot opens a door, to face three mini bullet sponges with big shields, all while being shot at by Psions, Legionaries, Phalanxes, Centurions, Colossi (plural for colossus??), and the occasional Harvester? I'd rather it be an Xbox exclusive. It's old after the first gate defense. If it was actually good, I'd sympathize more with Xbox players. But it's pretty bad. I'd almost say you're lucky not to have to waste time playing it when it shows up.

So would you say they are added in because Sony paid more money for it and Bungie made a hash job of a shit strike? Even if it's that bad, different content is different, even if it's shit and just mixes up the gameplay. I assume it's a mini Strike then rather than effort. But to be honest, the extra Strike probably isn't my main concern, but the lack of content in this DLC for such a high price. I say high price as in the U.S it's $19.99 and in the U.K it's... £19.99. Hmmm, nice exchange rate being used. Just expensive for so little. Raid being the only worthy item. (And PvP maps to be fair IMO of course)

This is very true. I wouldn't be annoyed if they got access to it before Xbox but the fact that its exclusive to them is bs.
