[QUOTE="Gyron_Oldvic, post: 10405738, member: 357711"] I'm presuming Microsoft paid through the nose for them judging the price they eventually hit Marketplace at (1600 MS points), so adding them to the LCE was out of the question. Plus the LCE was released at the the same time as the regular release and MS just couldn't get EA to play ball at release time, even as paid DLC. So we couldn't even get say, a 'Day 1' DLC pack. Adding them to the LCE later would have been a no go too as the XEX on the disc matches the regular release. It took MS/T10 7 months of wrangling before we got them, and at a handsome price too. I'm surmising it's because EA had no intention of adding Ferraris to Shift 2, so didn't need to bother with any back scratching with MS. MS had the exclusive digital Ferrari licence for the Xbox platform and licensed EA to use them as DLC for Shift 1. I'm presuming they gave them the rights pretty cheap too as it was only 800 MS points and there was quite a few cars and a bunch of new career events. And around the same time we had Porsches in FM3. But that NFS Shift Ferrari DLC only appeared on the 360 and not PS3 and PC, that's why I think EA got it on the cheap from MS.
