Is 500 MS points ($6.25) a fair price for a pack of three downloadable Guitar Hero II songs on Xbox Live? Many of you don't think so, but Major Nelson believes it's justified. In a recent interview, he explained the rationale behind the current GHII pricing structure.

I have to agree, i mean people buy songs on itunes like he syas for $1 a pop and all you can do is listen to them, these songs are ~$2 and you can interact with them... how is that a bad deal? oh and to the people that say well it would cost ~$100 to buy all the songs from GH1... um some of those songs are already in GH2 and GH2 on the 360 has like 10 extra songs over the ps2 version already... so yeah.
by the way I dont even play this game, I do own it though... for one reason, my girlfriend plays the sh!t out of it and then doesnt get mad at me when i play something like Gears, or soon Mass Effect, on the other 360 i got. (yeah i have two 50" dlps and two 360's what-of-it?)

Yeah I think this pricetag is justified. You pay royalties for the song, which cost money to the original artist.
And the replay value is great of this game and the songs
we all know how it will work from here on out. The gaming exec's will sit around a big glossy oak table in their high price suits thinking of what they are going to do with their super model assistant before going home to their wrinkley wives and they will all agree that chargeable components of games be left out so they can nickel and dime us to death increasing their profits so they can sit pretty on their 3rd yacht.
What a joke this guy is, he is so brainwashed by corperate america that he thinks that it is all right for us to pay 2x what the songs from GH1 cost, just so we can play them in GHII. I just lost all respect for Major Nelson, and to think that this guy used to be the coolest xbox guy in the world. Sounds like Larry Hyrb is now talking and Major Nelson is dead. Pick or choose what you are about MN, the community or the company, you can't masquerade as both, now that the mask is off you have a lot of work to do to be "cool" with us again. What a shame
