Why EA Suck

Well, EA are at it again. Just two weeks after the release of their new game Godfather II (2), EA plan to release some pricey DLC for stuff that used to be included in games.

The Godfather II DLC will be as follows:

• The Pentangeli Map Pack: All-new Cuba multiplayer map and Junkyard multiplayer map. (540MS Points)
• Level 4 Weapons Bundle: Modern Dillinger, the .700 Magnum Impact, the Herzstopper, the MG-S1 Sniper Wolfe, and the Street Sweeper. (320MS Points)
• Jack of All Trades: Download Jimmy Lira – Lira starts out with the arsonist, engineer, medic, and safecracker specialties and comes equipped with a level 2 machine gun – the MP38. (320MS Points)
• The Corleone Bundle — All of the above (800MS Points)

So that’s about £10 to £15 for a multiplayer map, a playable character, and a few weapons. Why on earth were these not just included in the original game release? The answer is obvious, as so is the solution; do not buy DLC for EA games.

Godfather II should be out by next week (April 7th?), with the DLC coming out on both Xbox Live and the Playstation Network. I personally wont be buying this DLC, nor the game. Sure, my “protest” won’t affect anything much, but please spread the word about how EA are milking the crap out of gamers by leaving small features out that should be included in the original release.
