[QUOTE="Sean DonCarlos, post: 17149, member: 152"] On other games, the DLC is straight data, and the original executable can use this data without modification. But on TPA, the tables have nonstandard toys (Bride's rotating head, CV's Ringmaster and backglass cannon, etc.) that require specialized code to handle. This code has to be added to the main executable for these tables to operate, and the best way to do that on a 360 is via an update: So if FarSight somehow had the code for each table in the DLC, they'd have to do multiple submissions for each round of updates, and as we're finding out here, that would be even more time-consuming and expensive than the present situation.
