Has anyone else read about this?

I know this has been done in the past, but charging for content already on the disc and topping it off with the worst possible explanation from a 2K Games rep warrants such harsh criticism! I have to say I find this whole incident hilarious indeed.

This is when it's a great time to have a gaming PC up to spec and get a crack within mere seconds.

2K  is just purposely asking for hell from people who already purchased Bioshock 2 for the consoles.

 

I will not be buying the DLC because the multiplayer isn't exactly my type of fun anyway, but it still irks me that we get lowballed in that sense.

At least have the common decency to not include it on the disc and offer such a horrible excuse when people complain.

I don't exactly get the point of criticism. Why does it matter if you're paying for an unlock key?

To be honest, I really don't care and if I really wanted the content, I would have paid for the key.

I just think it's interesting, if not borderline amusing how they charge for an unlock key considering it's very easy to get around.
