Saints Row DLC
Eye patch, clothes, etc.
As promised a few weeks ago, THQ and Volition have released a bit of extra content for decent-enough Grand Theft Auto clone Saints Row.
The "Funky Fresh Pack" - seriously? - costs 100 Microsoft points and consists of several items of clothing, some tats and hairstyles and whatnot, for use in both single- and multiplayer modes.
You've also got some tiger stripes underwear in there, crazy bunny slippers, and most importantly an eye patch, which next to the samurai helmet, medallions and rattlesnake tattoos is probably the classiest of the bunch.
For more on Saints Row, check out our review; there's also a demo available on Live Marketplace.

This next patch interests me greatly if only because the developers are adding an optional v-sync switch for the cutscenes and/or the game. This should please Eurogamer immensely and me if no-one else. The patch will also add 4x AA for standard definition users (apparently it was removed in error when the developers dropped the anti-alasing down from 4x AA in the demo to 2x AA for hi-def users in order to improve the framerate).
Can't wait personally. The game was great fun anyway; only the v-sync tearing spoilt it in a major way for me.

Quite right. I've played a fair bit of SR and I found that I bought extra kit on the basis that it increased my respect multiplier. Consequently my character is pretty much head to toe in purple. If swapping his pants for a tigerstripe variety is going to reduce my multiplier than I am really not interested. A groovy new car or some additional activity types however I AM interested in.
Regarding the eyepatch, can it be worn at the same time as shades? Again, if it can't then I'm just not interested as the pimp shades my character has are so worth a lot more than a measly +12.
Volition seem to have confused their title with Sims.

Have you got passed the mission where you have to protect the vans from being destroyed by the Blue gang (Sorry could not remember the cool gang name) as I cant seem to complete it...
Ahhh.

Also don't shoot near the trucks as you will end up taking them out by accident.
Don't let your car disappear.....this is a tough one to achieve

Totally agree. It is blatant cashing-in. The value of the item on offer is in no way related to the price.
Of course noone forces us to buy this stuff, but it is nagging that they dare charge for content that only takes a few hours for them to create and then sell it on the strength of their existing game/franchise to thousands of people.

Seriously the marketplace stuff is taking the piss. "
100 points is about 80p. I'm not saying its worth it, buts its hardly breaking the bank is it. You could spend more on a can of cola at a burger van.

But most of the cost of games nowadays goes on graphics anyway.
Only a small proportion of a modern game's budget goes on developing the actual gameplay, the rest goes on visual effects, textures, design work etc etc.
