Something that almost slipped below my radar while out of town was EA releasing the \"Maxed out Player\" in-game content for Tiger Woods 08 to Xbox 360 owners. We saw a rash of this last year, and it looks to be continuing this season. I can\'t argue too much with the cost (200 MS points, or $2.50), but the nickel and diming us for stuff that used to be free (hello cheat codes!) just keeps reinforcing EA\'s reputation as nothing more than a greedy corporate giant...

Ninja you can't ask what your name should be silly boy. That's like saying your cool doesn't make you cool.

Yeah, seems all the other versions actually have a code to enable this, but for the 360 it costs 2.50. I may be wrong on all the others, but I know I have seen codes for others systems and not the 360
