Latest news about Xbox Live Content

Posted by Justin Gain Thursday, August 17, 2006

Microsoft has recently announced that they are going to start instituting "consumable" content for Xbox 360 games. Basically what this means is that you will be able to buy certain content for a price, and that content will eventually "break" to where you have to repurchase it. So, basically think of it this way....In "Dead Rising" you are able to have 250 weapons to do what you will. Now, with this new "consumable" content you could buy a new weapon, such as a more powerful version of a shotgun or what not, and once it breaks you must repurchase it. Now, the way the described it is they would have a special XBL vendor ingame that would make it to where once you have put all these weapons into your "shopping cart" and you would then go to xbl and purchase it with real money. Would this work? Is it going to be good for XBL or a tremendous downfall? Only time will tell. Also, Microsoft has not yet announced what game this will premier in, but I have a gut feeling that it will be Viva Pinata.
