All this download content coming and I haven't even played most of the games yet :(

The DLC that gives more "game" content is free? Very nice...I wish we saw more of this...so I appreciate it when it does happen. I'll download when I have the game...

[Shjinta]

Sweet jesus.... 3 out 4 for Free? Nice! now I need to get this game.

[Spigot]

Square, I love ya. Free DLC is always nice.

[Kelegacy]

Awesome. I'll be getting this fo' sho'.

Free DLC is always nice. It makes you feel like the developer actually appreciates your purchase, instead of trying to rip you off for more money.

[EWolfmanD]

The 100 point DLC contains the same formations I got for pre-ordering from Amazon (and maybe other places), so that's probably why they put a small fee on it.

[rvieira]

Is this already in the game and can be unlocked without the DLC ?

[Xerxes]

Shit, that was fast. Was IU an abortion are does that game have some free content coming too? :)

Also way to go. I bet MS wouldn't have dared to tell them they HAVE to charge. Would've got their FF 13 snatched away. ;)

[Sl1pstream]

We'll see what happens when they release The Last Remnant XVI. SE is pretty new to this, they'll probably charge eventually.

Still, it's nice of them to release free stuff.

I'm surprised that the formations one isn't free, but that the ancient ruins is. I guess the Amazon thing that was mentioned probably explains it.
