No kidding, I was under the (mistaken) impression that the PS3 version was getting this for free. At least the Worlds of Hurt one sounds fun.

I'm not even gonna point out that Little Sisters are invincible to any damage, so she might've as well jumped off...
...and how the hell did she get up there in first place!?

Just because something is invincible to damage doesn't mean it cannot be destroyed.Yes, if you rip the slug out of their stomachs they'll be taken off "life-support" and die eventually.
However, if the Sea Slug is still there and ADAM is pumping through her blood NOTHING CAN KILL A LITTLE SISTER!

Pretty sure this could've been included on the blu-ray edition. After a year, yeah, I'd expect something extra included on a deluxe edition and not have to pay ten bucks extra to make it deluxe.

The simple fact that a year old port was full price was enough to turn me away. That put it dead square in rental territory for me.

I thought the "challenge rooms" were included already in the PS3 version? I recall Xbox fanboys insisting 2K Games offer the rooms as DLC for the 360 so both versions were "the same game."

Downloadable content for the win, right?
Of course, had this been last generation, we'd have had this on the disc already or it wouldn't have been included at all... but we're bound to keep being charged $60 for incomplete games and $10 more for each missing piece.

Why don't the 360 owners (the people responsible for the major part of their success) get DLC? And if they do get it, why not making it free. Come on Kev!

People forget that there are people who will buy this. And those people will have fun and then go dancing in the rain and then go off and buy more stuff....Because they questioned only if they could afford the value of a great game. Some are just to cheap to throw down 10 dollars to pass time in the miserable existence.

That should not cost 10 dollars..... What essentially comes 3 new maps. Two of each are just arena/gauntlet mode maps.

Wait, didn't Joystiq just run a story last week or so when an exec from Sony stated that "nothing is exclusive" so according to Sony this is multiplatform of course.

Sony really needs to learn how to use "exclusive DLC" in marketing.
You tell everyone about it before a launch that is simultaneous, so everyone who has a choice will buy your version instead. Then you can just not reveal whatever is actually exclusive until nobody cares anymore. You get more sales without actually doing anything aside from making vague promises to gamers. It also makes you look really really rich that you can afford such things for your gamers, and they +1 you for it even if said content is terrible.
