Different Genre, but I know in Katamari you can buy the sets of cousins and accessories, all of which you can unlock in game. Also all of which is pointless as it gives you no benefit aside from looking different.
That and Katamari is a family style game and they still expect you to pay for the DLC. Even Rainbow Six (a game for more advanced gamers) gave away the Red and Black packs for free, as well as other games that have the free DLC.
I don't understand how companies can really justify selling us little bits to add to our game instead of just letting us have them. PC games let us, and back in the day when expansion/mission packs were commonplace, they gave a lot more for your money. Missions, weapons, vehicles, depending on the game, you get tons of stuff as opposed to now, you're paying a high price for just a few maps or a new car which should be a part of the game, no cost.
(and I forgot that Burnout was coming out so soon. I might have to set aside some of my new years holiday pay for that.)
