[QUOTE="shogun00, post: 101211, member: 1729"] It's because of the way Sony designed their patch system. The patch system was only incorporated to the main game and not to the DLC. If you look at all of the DLC on the PS3, almost all of it is just items (weapons, costumes, skins, etc...), extra characters, levels and map packs. Stuff that can easily be patched through the main game, if there is something wrong with it. TPA and Zen Pinball are in a unique situation, where the games rely heavily on DLC and not the main game itself. Sony probably never thought that DLC would be so important in a game, when they were developing their patch/update system for the PSN. It also doesn't help that Farsight took the universal approach on their game (one size fits all sort of thing), while Zen re-creates their program to cater to that specific platform. [/QUOTE]
