    Seems as though most places are quoting this month for Street Fighter so hopefully it will be reliable.

    I dont agree with the points for extra content for games that are already out like 500 points for new multiplayer maps in C.O.D .... seems unfair as most people have already paid £40 - £50 for the game(s)

    You pay for the extra development time. I'm sure if you wait long enough they'll become free anyway.

    The June 2006 Calendar from OXM Magazine marks 6/10/06 as a Street Fighter II HFE Xbox Live Date Mind you, it's produced miles in advance

    Its been done for ages on the original Xbox. I don't have a problem paying for new content if its actually worth it, so far some of the extra (payed) content available is an absolute joke ie Oblivion. FFS horse armour.

    You seem to pick up on COD's NEW content being unfair but miss this little gem

    "Kameo: Elements of Power Hardcore Package (harder difficulty modes, new skins, new competitive co-op mode): July, 500 Points "

    So no new content just difficulty increase. And you have to pay for that privilage, now that is taking the mick.

    In all honesty any addon that you have to pay for imo is a joke, especially if it just a map, harder levels (which should have been added in the first place) or horse armour

    Look at the pc gaming scene for example in most fps you can get additional maps etc free (cs:s for an example)

    well, on the pc, things for oblivion like horse armour or the tower only cost &#163;1-&#163;2, which seems like a fair price and is a good buisness model if you ask me.....

    out of intrest, i have heard things like that cost rediculous amounts of money on the 360, is this true?

    Its the same price on the 360. Micro add-ons may be the way forward but if they want it to succeed then it needs to be worth the money and have to add something to the game. Horse armour should have been free and even if it cost 50p its still not a fair price for something so irrelevant.
