Did you think the Forza 2 downloadable content on Xbox Live was too expensive? Did you complain about it? Well then, here's your reward!

Heh, I initially read 'discontinued'... quite funny when you consider the front-page summary's wording.

This is good news, I couldn't believe it when I heard it was going to be over £5 for a single track yesterday.

there are loads of tracks in the game anyway, sure downloadable tracks should only come out to add value to the game, not just to microsofts profit margin

Im not paying that either. I love Forza 2 and would like more tracks, but even at £3.40, I think thats a rip off. Make it £5 for a pack of at least 5 different tracks. Its not that I need 1 more track to add re-playability, its a racing game and the current tracks give it plently of re-playability.

only upgrades for any games i have bought are bomberman maps. the origianal download only has a few maps and although the 2 updates give a total of 4 maps and various costume, they were only a total of 450 points and I still felt ripped off.

Seems a little high but I don't own the game. You think they would just leave the price the same and throw in 2 or 3 more tracks. Even just the option to download when they come out later would be better.

Spelling mistake
"Japanese Twin Ring Moegi track." Its Motegi.

And btw, there are probably four variations. The oval/east/west/full.

I've still not come close to completing career mode so I don't need any DLC and I wont pay for a track in the same way I would never pay for the extra cars for PGR3.
