F.E.A.R. gets new DLC yet again

If you needed a reminder that the digital economy in still in its pupae state, this is it. Who played through three new CTF maps and two new Deathmatch/Control maps and was aghast that they would charge 500 points? "I insist, nay, demand you increase the price of this gaming product," the mysterious pricing manager might have shouted, as his monocle fell from his face. "You either raise the price sixty-two-and-one-half cents, or you may consider my resignation at this establishment tendered!" The plot thickens even more when you consider that the last map pack for F.E.A.R. was four maps for 500 points. It's further confirmation of what we all expected ... they're choosing these prices at random. Ah well, at least the spinning wheel isn't landing on $15 any more.

I will genuinely be amazed if anyone still gives a shit about FEAR at this point.

How unique, another post bitching about DLC prices. XBL DLC prices are no worse of a deal than 90% of the games for the Wii, yet I don't see articles bitching about them.

They don't make those posts on VC prices nearly as often because the prices are mostly set. Most NES games are 500 etc. They do complain when they see games that shouldn't be downloaded. 500 for a bad game is too much but 500 for a good game is a deal.

I will NEVER pay for a stupid mp map. They will always eventually be free anyhow. This is content groups of friends make in thier basement on the weekends. If you are supporting this shrek then you are part of the problem.
Give me some single player or co-op content and I would think about it.
