Exclusives. A lot of people are arguing that Xbox gets plenty of exclusive DLC's, and that is true. But in those cases, people who are on consoles that are locked out don't even have the option of purchasing the content (most if not all of the time). However, in this case, many like myself, have already PAID for the content and expected to be able to download it, only to find out we've essentially paid for that content 1 year in advance. I gave you my money, give me my content. And others are saying that Xbox whining is going to lead to Xbox only titles. Have you not played any games in the last, like 5 years? Playstation has titles that are 100% exclusive, as does Xbox, as does Steam. I don't hear anyone complaining that we can't play God of War because we don't have a Playstation. On the reverse side of that, the franchise that built this studio is now owned by Microsoft and is an Xbox exclusive. But again, it's not like you paid for Halo, then were told you'd never be able to play it. You knew going in that if you wanted to play it, you had to purchase an Xbox. Again the same applies to God of War and other various exclusive titles, if you want to play God of War, you have to buy a Playstation. It's known and understood. Back to the DLC aspect. Xbox is getting CoD DLC ahead of other consoles, true. But you haven't purchased that content because you knew months ago this was the case. Here, we have a case where this content was available for pre-purchase to all users, and many did purchase it, only to have it revealed to us that this content is being chopped into bits, and because we are not PS users, we are paying full price for 3/4 of the product (which to be fair is more than what we got of the vanilla game when we coughed up the $60 for that). It just keeps piling on. And for people who are getting worn down by this, stop logging on to complain. Stop buying the content, stop logging in to play your billionth strike on Winter's Run. Because as long as the game continues to get attention, and people continue to invest their money in it, it's a successful title and nobody has to even listen to a word of what you're saying, let alone take it into consideration for future development. The only thing any business listens to is money. Cut off the money and you'll get their attention.

  • You are partially right but PlayStation users who buy the COD elite or premium membership are preordering the DLC and have to wait a month after Xbox to download any portion of it. With Destiny if you're on Xbox and purchased the Limited or Ghost editions then you also happened to preorder the 1st 2 DLC's along with it and can download it at the same time as PlayStation users. Only difference is that PlayStation users get 1 more strike until it is eventually made available to Xbox. I feel the COD way of DLC is worse considering a "new" one is released yearly which makes a month delay more important.
