1 - Awesome !

Even though i purchased both , atleast i will get reimbursed for one of them , this rocks !

Im really glad they are doing this , Thanks Ubisoft , that was a classy move. It was a sucky feeling knowing that i have all these extra maps and the cheapo's out there werent buying them leaving me nobody to play against. This will definitely bring them out in droves to play the new maps , making my road towards Elite (im a major now) that much more enjoyable , seeing that everyone just stuck to those old default maps which started to get boring awhile ago even though i still love them .

THanks ubisoft , once again , we appreciate this.

hmm.. so why would anyone buy the ps3 version... can someone please explain that to me? ubi kinda kicked themselves in the nuts here didn't they? i mean its gonna be real hard to push the ps3 version now... how they gonna make their money back from spending all that time porting it? if joe blow goes out to the store and say hmm i could buy version a on the 360 and get better online play, and less jaggies/smoother framerate, better lighting, and achievements.... or i could get version b on the ps3... hmm choices, choices...

5.1 - lol

As bad as it sounds it would not be free if the ps3 version was not free, how messed up does that sound 1 console makes you pay an 1 does not for same stuff.

People would buy ps3 version cause:

a) not everyone has a xbox
b) still has 1 ps3 only map
c) something new to ps3 even tho it is not a good port

An even tho this was not said from M$ or Ubi I will belive it when I see it cause this was on xbox forums this morning by just a user an no link to prove it, an M$ is the last! company in the word to give back few million.

5.2 - ??

What about the people that only have a PS3??

Should they still buy the 360 Version? Will it work in a PS3?

You make no sense, If they have both systems, ubisoft will get paid for which ever version they buy, it doesnt matter, they get paid either way.

i ran to my 360 to download it, saw it wasn't there, cried, and came back to the article to find out it comes out tomorrow.

Thanks ubisoft. My girl is gone for the weekend, and hasn't called much. So i am bored as anything and don't know what to do. Vegas to the rescue

11 - Awesome !

I love when a video game company does this... Ubisoft gets it. Especially now this is the time to really give free content, when people really are tried of being charged for a game they already choose to support.

If it was some huge content then maybe ok, but maps come on, games are expensive, and we gladly pay that price. We support the game help it sell in the millions and then companies stab us in the back and start getting greedy and charge for some maps.. and wallpaper.. are you serious?

Thank you Ubisoft for fighting for us, we appreciate it, I know Microsoft them greedy bastards are the ones who wanted to stick us with a charge for the maps.

13 - Hopefully

This Will Show some fanboys, why competition is a good thing.. Im a big 360 fan, but if the ps3 had not had this game, with these maps, then ubisoft wouldnt have had to follow microsofts policy relating to multiplatform content...
And hence, Please stop predicting the death of the rival console, we need rivals, without competition the 360 would be $600,or the ps3 wouldnt be bothered making home and psn etc.
