This is to let Microsoft know that enough is enough. This microtransaction nonsense has gone too far. It wasn't "cute" when you charged money for horse armor in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion and it sure isn't right when you decided to charge for cheat codes for The Godfather. Now you have a potential money making product called Guitar Hero II.
When we first heard that this game was going to be released for 360, we all jumped for joy. When we heard there was going to be downloadable songs, that was music to our ears. We knew they weren't going to be free. We understand that the developers do have to take time to make this additional content.
Today, April 11, 2007 you've released the first of supposedly many songs to come out. They come in packs of 3 for 500 MS points. But this is ridiculous. There were 47 songs on the original Guitar Hero, and with this pricing scam, sorry scheme, this would give us a grand total just below $100 (ref: joystiq.com).
We know we have the "choice" to not download this content, and to be honest, with it costing that much, not many of us will. All we ask is to give us a REAL choice. Why not instead of 3 packs, we can choose single songs for 125 points? Or let us choose our own 3 packs for 400 points?
Major Nelson stated before that Xbox Live gives us choice. But what choice is there? The choice to not fully utilize this service? The choice of picking up a Nintendo Wii or a Sony PS3? Guitar Hero II (with downloadable songs) was one of many reasons why some of us jumped on the 360 wagon, please don't make us or possible future adopters regret this choice.
