I've never seen a company be better with DLC than Criterion. Your getting me to buy this game even though I never wanted it just because i'm constantly curious what the next update will bring.

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

Agreed.
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.

Awesome work EA, I'm really Excited to see them turning things around, and now that they arn't the big dog in the house they really need to change things. Keep it up I love it.

Those guys are awesome, you can see in their podcasts and DLC that they take real pride in their work, most other devs would nickel and dime us for all they've done (i'm looking at you, Motorstorm scum!).

They're all brits too.....i'm just sayin'

I feel so guilty for not owning this. Amazing!

I can't believe that not everyone owns this game. It's easily one of the best games of this year if not this generation. Don't let the changes they made to the Burnout formula scare you away. The game will win you over in just a few hours. If you haven't already, BUY THIS GAME!

Hands down one of the most fun games this year, it's really nice to see them continuing to support it this long. So many other companies just pop out a map pack or two and move on. Criterion is actually adding new and interesting content on a regular basis.

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

This is the only driving game I'm able to stomach - apart from Rock 'n' Roll Racing that is. It's so polished, so slick, so well designed... I don't play it nearly enough unfortunately, but despite that I'm still able to appreciate its greatness.

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...
