[QUOTE="Mark W**a, post: 49954, member: 1196"] From a business perspective, Farsight is actually lucky this happened. Sales of the DLC packs were only about 5k a piece from SlyDogg's estimates. You figure at 5 bucks a piece, that's 75,000$ dollars in revenue ok... but after you take into consideration the 30 or 40 thousand submission fee, then Microsofts cut of the profits, they were probably around break even. Now they have an opportunity to get 7 packs through (not to mention patches, Pro Modes, etc.) all for either one 30-40K charge or for free (if the relaunch rumors are true). Now all of a sudden they stand to make some SERIOUS money, instead of chump change or worse break-even. Or hell, LOSSES. Btw unless sales get better than 5k per pack, they'll have to start putting 4 packs together which means we'll be 5 months behind so you might as well say 6 so. Yeah, if that's the case again, just drop us the huge update now thank you very much. Oh ok, I gotcha. But still, what makes a difference if they release all the DLC at once, weekly, or bi-weekly etc.? I'm telling you that won't net them any free advertising doing it that way. [/QUOTE]
