Really, $20 dollars is not even the cost of a tank of gas, a sit down meal or even a good movie. Everyone wants a good paying job even the beleaguered designers, coders and artist that make the games. Talent, marketing and distribution are expensive and nothing is ever free.

  • So you drive a vehicle with a less than an 8 gallon tank you ate the appetizer at Applebee's and went to a movie and didn't have a soda or popcorn or bought a dvd on deep discount. Frugal but not the typical vehicle, not a sit down meal and what was the title of the 3 movie. You also spent over 20 for 1.5 hour of entertainment. Derp?

    Gas is 1.60 here. I drive a 2013 wrangler MOAB. Movies here are 1.50 a person when they've been in theaters over 2 weeks. A 9 ounce ribeye is not an appetizer unless you are mentally retarded and call it that. Fail. Derp Movie title was Big Hero 6. Want more evidence little boy?

  • Wrangler has a 18.6 to 22 gallon tank that would be 29 dollar at 1.60. The Applebees rib eye here is 9.99 without tax and tip. Didn't need evidence just want to go see the movie.

    My post got screwed up by this wonderful app. Anyways. The tank on my MOAB is custom as all the mopar parts are on special additions so it's a measly 15 gallon tank. Never said I bought an entire tank in my original post. Applebees' like all other franchise restaurants has prices that vary by region. So apparently where you live things are more expensive. Cheap movie tickets are available after a few weeks of a movie being in theaters. This is all moot. Because you are defending the price of the dlc they call an expansion. This price is far too high for the amount of content and the more you argue it, the dumber you sound. Look at other games and their dlc's: Skyrim Borderlands 1, 2 Fallout 3, New Vegas Every Naughty Dog game in existence GTA Red Dead Redemption The list can go on and on. All have more content for less money

  • I'm arguing two points. One, that Bungie fully advertised and listed on their website and console what was in the DLC which if purchased separately are $20 each or $35 for both. Both include the average amount of maps, missions, weapons, armor and gear of many other DLC products as other games. Two, right or wrong Bungie hired and employed a great deal of talent and technology to create, develop, distribute and launch a unique game and the prices they charge for those products and services is low in comparison. If you or anyone wants to make a difference, Bungie currently has 30 plus openings or simply don't play the game to the extent you and others obviously have.

  • If we are talking semantics than a 26 gallon tank x 1.6 per gallon is $41.60. Hello math skills. I feel for your server at restaurants and who doesn't know movies are cheaper when out longer. You should real fact check before trolling.

  • Except it was more expensive in the UK as was the game its not about the price anyway, its the value for money which fan boys like you are too blind to see

  • Not blind to the cost or the amount of content for the DLC. To be honest the taxes are higher in the UK for outside companies to sell and distribute. That cost has to go somewhere.

  • I understand. We all have budgets. My opinion is we should not expect the talent that put the game together to go hungry either.

    Anyway its not that I'm poor anything, main point was the value for money and me and many others (as shown my the up votes) feel we did not get that, I don't mind paying for DLC if its worth the money, Dude seriously "go hungry" yeah poor guys must be starving lol

  • Hungry metaphorically. I should hope someone is not deciding between food and a videogame.

  • Let's be honest bud, if you can't afford $20 for entertainment it's not because it's too expensive, it's because you're mismanaging your money.

  • No point missed. Everyone expects to be paid and that money comes from selling services, products or time. $20 is small change for the work. Nice trolling by the way

  • Sure and I have purchased, played and passed them on. It comes down to content creation. I personally would buy a DLC where I keep my game progress while extending the story, something many games do not do. Would a new planet be nice or some richly rendered maps sure. But we gotta know we are going to pay for that.
