XBL microtransaction tracker '06 edition
We learned the fury and rage of microtransactions in 2006 and website GamerFeast sent us their year end edition of the microtransaction tracker. GamerFeast compiles their list using data from Microsoft's site. A major change between the last time we posted this data and now is they no longer use the game's MSRP because the prices can vary. Now the tracker strictly pays attention to who is charging for extra content. See the end of year 2006 edition after the break.Hopefully 2007 will show us a new world of microtransactions that won't seem cheap and tacky. Will EA continue to be king of the exploitation transaction hill? And how long will it be before Sony and Nintendo start allowing publishers to offer mostly pitiful content at a price? At a minimum publishers should be tossing in free stuff more often to distract us and lessen the blow from the microtransactions.
