So, DLC is one thing -- which you are probably getting for free -- whereas any DLC that is released on 360 we have to pay for with magical microsloth points. GOOD TIMES!
I'm not going to get into a huge forum battle with you, I have a list with about twenty games, so no I won't post it because i'll get more crap about all of you 360 people even when I was right back in something like January. 360 and PS3 get equal amount of stuff but this time, the gaming gods smiled upon us. Huzzah!

I'm sure if was a 360 exclusive you'd be a happy fan, right? Consider yourselves lucky. You guys always get the good DLC.

What do we get? Iron Man, Spider-man 3, and Mirror's Edge DLC.

Ya, but... all together the 360 will have longer loading periods surpassing a greater amount of time spent then just these 1-3 minuites of instalation.

Moot point, considering the 360 can also install games to the HDD, which would eliminate those load times (which would take no longer than the PS3's initial install). But if you want to debate MGS4, I suggest you take it else where.

I will end this forum battle between 360ers and PS3inians, my nickname for us. 360 and PS3 get equal amount of stuff from DLC to games, none of the systems will outstrip one another. (outstrip means to get ahead of) Even if sales differ, both systems are equal. And just because some people complained about DLC from Fallout and GTA, we aren't those people, you cannot judge us from that, so both systems are equal. And sometimes with exclusive stuff sometimes videos can be just as good, so maybe you can wait for the game to come out and us PS3inians will make videos. Both systems are equal and some get more than others, but it's still going to be a great game, so let's stop complaining please.

No, I'm completely against console exclusive DLC entirely. It's just not fair, and I'm sick of it.

Last post for me for mgs4, still the time spent instaling it on the hdd will take some time aswell. And I really hope that B:AA stealth will overcome MGS4's, meaning that it would be better. Bottom line both systems are equal.

I decided to make a motion for a peaceful way of voicing our opinions. I by no means am a pro at making petitions, so I just put this one together. Read statement below, if you agree, go and sign it. No need to fight, everyone just wants equal content. Instead of attacking others on here (FELLOW FANS PEOPLE) Just voice your opinon here:

We here make a motion to fight for equal and fair exclusives between all consoles for the upcoming game Batman: Arkham Asylum. Whether it be PS3, XBOX 360, or the PC, all players deserve equal content regardless of their choice in console. Resist the temptation to develop only where the money is, instead make a stand on delivering equal rights to all.

And if exclusives for other consoles are in the works, announce those soon so that no rift develops between the fans. Together, we must stand united to promote and celebrate the release of this game.

No matter what console you have, fight for your fellow fans using other consoles by signing below. No one should fear losing exclusives for their console that have already been announced. Together, we stand united.

Cordially,
Future purchasers of Batman: Arkham Asylum

It's Eidos you should be thanking here, Sony had nothing to do with it. Like I mentioned earlier, they don't pay for exclusive content, so this is likely just been done to help boost the PS3 versions sales (which is obviously working).

But you can bet the 360 version will be getting something as well, and then eventually both systems will get the other content.

It's far too soon for anyone to be gloating just because they think their console is getting the better deal. In the end, exclusive DLC helps no one, it's only going to anger 360 owners to the point where it could damage the games sales and the chance of a sequel or any more content being released, and if the 360 later gets even better content, you guys are going to be just as upset. It's a no win situation.

Also, no one said the content would be free - it's an extra DLC pack and will almost definitely cost money.

Both versions of the game will be good and both will have their own dlc. What is the "downloadable villain challenge map" you can get from gamestop with a preorder? Both on the 360 and ps3.

However, that only confirms that this has nothing to do with Sony paying to keep it exclusive, which means it more than likely won't be for very long.

yes I was thinking that too they are kids wih no lifes whatsoever apparently because they arent thinking they think if they wine enough thell give them the content. Please all of you ask yourselves why rocksteady did this?? for the hell of it ?? its Fing business!!!!! they didnt just go "lets release this on the ps3 and not the 360" they most lightly offered the content to both sony and the 360 and sony payed more lol you think rocksteady care about you ?? its all about the $$

Sort of put . I mean, PS3 gets Joker, but 360ers won't accept that they won't get the DLC. I mean, i'm not saying they shouldn't, I want them to have the same, not their own, but you can't get everything, so all I can say is suck it up and deal with it and enjoy the game.
