Modern Warfare 2 DLC coming out today!

[Spandex Booby]

Anybody else buying?

1200 MS points, exclusive to the Xbox 360 for the time being.

Can't wait to try out the 3 new maps and 2 of the classics from COD4.

Bah, i've only got 800pts on my account,
Will probably get these when i get bored of Bad Company 2

Too much that, I'll stick to Bad Company 2 I reckon.

Is it just me, or is 1200 Microsoft Points a little expensive? That's over a tenner. Hardly an impulse purchase price.

(Although, it must be said, I don't particularly want any COD map packs anyways, due to having no friends who i'd regularly play it with.)

It annoys me that they sell points in 2000s, so you're left with 800 over that you can't use for anything interesting (I think after i bought Battlefield 1943 i bought a theme, which i've never used) - they should sell them in 2400s or reduce the cost of maps/arcade games to 1000

1200 MS points is the new 800 MS points. Cheeky little price rise.

 

[Zonerunner]

Breaking news - it doesn't work.

 

[St Helens RLFC]

Across the platforms or in one particular area?

As Spooby pointed out, it's exclusive to the 360 for the time being - a month, if I recall. So I think it's safe to say it's a problem that's only affecting 360 users at this point.

(As an aside, given how long it takes to get stuff up on European PSN Store, even if Microsoft hadn't paid for timed exclusivity, they'd have essentially gotten it over here anyways.)
