No offense, but your example of a rant doesn't really have its real acceptable meaning.

The PS2 HDD and Network Adapter has an adoption rate close to that of the Sega Saturn, in which case most of these people are from the FF11 and SOCOM camp. Also, I'm sure Sony has told Activision not to put online play in GH3 for the PS2 in order to boost the PS3's online gaming capabilities more. Its just indirectly telling people that, if you want to play GH3 online on the Playstation camp, you gotta do it on the PS3 so you gotta buy a PS3. Same applies to DLC here.

What would have been smart though, is for Activision to release an "expansion-pack" disc for PS2 GH3 owners. The expansion pack of course will feature all the DLC that has been released thus far, sell it a low price-point like how GH: Rock the 80's was sold. However, why they have not still done it is something I'm still wondering about.

i've been known to rant angry video game nerd style at school and my blog.
you know,ranting about how these game developers are making retarded decisions.

for example,how guitar hero 3 on ps2 has no online or dlc.there's obvious oppurtunity.i mean,remember the hard drive that came out with final fantasy 11?or the network adapter used to play online games(don't bother in malaysia,its full of lag)
i can understand that there's not an official way of payment for dlc,but i mean you could release coupon codes or something to download the songs,right?
or at least make it only online play.that would've been smart.

but no,they just HAD to make guitar hero 3 on ps2 the WORST version ever,by really abusing the power by underestimating the power of the playstation(lol remember the old motto?pretty ironic...)

there's an example.munny nao pl0x kthxbai
or just give me a free ps3 with metal gear solid pls

hmm.. i wonder how could you fit the HDD into the PS2 Slim. face it, DLC will always require more than the 8mb memory card to work. thus ps2 is not a viable market for online. plus ps2 wasn't created with online in mind, thus the architecture is somewhat lacking in both usage and acceptance from developers.

i have GH3 on ps2. besides the graphics, it plays well just like the next gen version.

as for payment, it has been accepted that both playstation store and xbl has their own version of monetary system that can be purchased using credit card or physical prepaid card. so no question about that. i dunno how much more official you want it to be.
