Yeah, it was kind of a dick-move by the publishers to raise the price like that. I understand your frustration. I bought it on the PSN, but if it had come out cheaper there first, then gotten raised, I'd feel upset too. The RIGHT thing to do would have been to lower the PSN price to match the Xbox price, since it came out first. 800 points/$10 is definately bordering on rip-off. I only got it because I really like the P-47, and I want to support this game to help ensue that it doesn't just die off.

At least we get an awesome plane out of it.

Its not the devs that do it, blame the publishers for the pricing and handling of this DLC.

Yeah, just feels kinda cheap that we had it for one price and then instead of doing the 'nice' thing and lowering the ps3's price, the did the 'microsoft' thing and raised it for us.

Yep. Definately an obvious attempt to maximize profits. I think I saw in one forum that the devs want to do the sequel themselves. I REALLY hope that's true. This game's publisher has really mishandled this DLC, and certainly doesn't have the game's fans in mind.

Thanks. You did pretty good too. You actually knew to go after the B-17's (made things kind of tough for me and sniper)...something the fighter pilots on my team didn't realize until they almost lost us the match. lol. Apparently they thought strafing the targets was more important.
