Erm...all that stuff was added through DLC. You act like it was all free.
Thats just part of it, but good point. ME1 had two pieces of dlc back when bioware did their own thing. ME2 had a lot of dlc quest there was a couple costume packs I believe. There was a whole lot of weapon packs too. ME3 has pretty much the same amount. The difference is the quest dlc is more expensive this time around. That's pretty damn greedy I'd say.
Does not relate you're comparing apples & oranges here. First and foremost your comparing Multiplayer to Single Player. When a game has MP as a feature everyone needs to have the same version. If you didn't get the GOTY for Fallout 3 great thats your choice. You can have a different version from others cause your playing a "SP" game not MP. Even if they released this as DLC. Which it is everyone needs to get it why? Cause its "mandatory" for everyone to have the same version due to online. It's "mandatory" for dlc to cost something on console. Til that "mandatory" rule changes you can't say their money hungry. That's if it even changes ever.
Secondly look at these patches for Fallout 3.
PC
1.0.0.15
1.1
1.4
1.5
1.6
1.7
360
1.1
1.4
1.5
See the clear difference yeah you do. You know why there's such a difference? Its definitely not because Fallout started on PC. Its because console patching cost way too much money while PC is minimal. Two XBLA games come to mind Costume Quest & Fez never got needed patches. I do not use that term loosely either. The patches were necessary and never came why? Price. Which brings me to my next point. Price I am not gonna give you numbers cause this should be common sense. Fallout and ME have made a whole lot of money. They can afford the patching. How about you quit bitching and be happy we got this many patches thus far. Those 2 games made way more money than DoA ever did. You know why 5U is coming cause fans requested it and it cost minimal money to release a patch that comes to disc. So take that misguided hate somewhere else.
