Everyone, look on the bright side. EA isn't interested in buying it.
"Would you like to pay $5.99 for mod support DLC?"
EA aren't the only one doing it nowadays unfortunately, games like Dirt 3 have so many DLC cars that it beggars belief. Seems like half of the cars in that game are only unlockable via DLC and it pisses me off so hard.
Personally I go by the rule that if you buy a game then you're basically buying the right to use it (well whoda thunk it!!) and anything associated, so if you buy a racing game then you should be allowed to use all the cars you want.
When the company starts to take that away from the user, it's basically alienating the user. Really in the whole scheme of things, DLC's are just a legalized money-grubbing exercise.
In fact I used to play Test Drive Unlimited 2 which was a driving game that had DLC's, and you could literally just hack the game and edit in the DLC cars easily. Then of course, Atari (enough said right?) updated the game and made patches to stop the hacking, but it didn't stop the car hack because you could simply download an old .exe file, run the old version of the game so you could hack, and then after updating you'd still have all the cars. The whole thing is just stupid.
