Episode 14: Pay to Play

We discuss a new trend in the console world--the idea of buying additional content to augment and enhance our gameplay instead of just unlocking that content through said gameplay, something most of us did while we were younger.

Listen to our thoughts on downloadable content right here on Downloadable Content.
