See, it's better to comment here to keep the discussion flowing. I know Microsoft seem to be going full throttle this way, just seems odd why sony are not pushing for it as much - maybe because they dont have as big a foothold as Xbox Live. Excellent!

I have heard that Sony are holding back a lot of material in the next Grand Turismo and asking people to buy new cars and courses from their online site. The number of cars will be much less in this game than number 2 - you will need to download the rest. On the otherhand Rockstar have said on top of the full GTA4 game there will be extra episodic content for Xbox 360 owners (wonder why not PS3?) which doesnt mean you wont get a full games experience but rather some bells and whistles. This for me is the way they should be going. Withholding stuff from a game which could be easily included and has been before for the sake of downloading is going to put a lot of people off where as with GTA its almost an added extra.
