When it finally hits, the pack will feature two motorcycles: a street chopper and a racing bike. Criterion has also divulged more details on night racing. It turns out that the time of day will change dynamically, and, along with it, so will the bike challenges available. Special "Midnight Rides" will only be accessible after the sun sets on Paradise City. Not that it will always be sunny during the day or moonlit at night – in yet another surprise announcement, Criterion is implementing a dynamic weather system in this update. The dev says it's "serious about DLC," and given this latest news we're even more inclined to respond: "No, really?"

Every other company in the world, you might wanna take note.

It's sad that it's come to this, though.
That a company that gets it is the exception, rather than the norm.
DLC used to be a reward for supporting the product.
As a side note, I was a little upset to see that the horse armor for Oblivion is still not free on the Xbox Marketplace.

Man, I wish Infinity Ward and Epic would be this prolific with their DLC.

The DLC is just icing on the already supremely yummy cake. It's amazing what they're offering for free, especially in this day and age when companies rewarding their customers with bonus stuff is becoming more and more uncommon. Instead we're buried under micro-payments that aren't anywhere near micro (and the universally hated horse armor is just a small taste of that) and the even more despiccable in-game advertising we're seeing more and more of. Advertising that SPIES on us, phoning home and reporting how much it's being viewed, and so on... Oh dear.
Criterion clearly deserves a lot of praise for making this game. It's the best arcadey racing game since the original Out Run. But I really REALLY wish the music included in it was any damn good, lol! That's the only part of it I dislike, all the "artists" and all the tracks are complete shite. :P But I generally just sort of tune out the music while driving and rarely think about it, so it doesn't matter all that much...
