    Question Why do we need perspective?

    Zico has just made his way back into my good books! All is forgiven for sharing the great news with us. The next week is going to drag so slowly, I cant wait!

    To everyone shocked by the 'low' price, have you not seen DLC before? This will be one of the more expensive game add-ons available on the Store. The vast majority of DLC is below £5. And it's not entirely dependant on content either - one of the largest DLCs is the UT3 Titan Pack, which is free.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to fight for the other corner and claim it's too expensive at £7.99, but I'm just saying... realistically... what did you all expect? DLC more expensive than the actual game?


    Look how small that add on content usually is (apart from Titan, which to be fair is a one off). The Call of Duty and Killzone map packs, 2 maps for £5-£7, and if you really have money to burn, why not buy a gun skin for Dead Space that does nothing else but makes it look pretty! Whereas with WipEout your getting 12 courses, 3 game modes, new ship designs, 6 new licensed music tracks and new campaigns for just a little more than a map pack which only gives you 2 new arenas to play on. Yes, the price is a tiny bit higher (and I mean a tiny weeny bit higher) compared to other DLC, but there is so much content its perfectly justified. I think the value for money is so much better! And Fury is only 2 thirds the cost of the full game and it almost doubles what you can do. Again, I think it justifies the cost. For what you are getting, it is cheap!
