Only 250 GS for Dragon Age Awakening

The upcoming expansion is only going to have 8 extra achieves worth 250 pts. Seems kind of weak for something thats going to cost $40. I'll get it if it gets good reviews or when I hear how long it is but for 40 bucks it better be a good sized expansion if its barely going to have more points than an arcade game. Anyone else going to pick this up March 16th?

a little bit about achievements... MS has rules about how many achievements can be added to a game through DLC. Currently, the rule states that up to 250 points can be added per fiscal quarter of the year, up to a maximum of 750 additional points. That means that ANY expansion at any price can't have more than 250 points, unless it takes 6 months or more to release, like Halo 3's additional 750 that came over a year after the release date.

yeh but still think about this, a $40 dlc......but a new $60 game has 1000 chives, why cant this dlc have around 600 chive points, its around 66% of the cost of a new game.

I picked it up yesterday for $19.99 (hard disc copy), didn't have the 3200 Microsoft points, and it took up 3GB (not MB) of hard drive space so i was like screw that, so i now have ALL the DLC for this game, but have yet to even take it out of the cellophane yet and i bought it back on November 3rd for $20.00..But from the sounds of it I'll have a shitload of work to do on it

You guys are moping 40$ is expensive. I agree. 60$ is way to expensive for any game. I don't care what it is i am not going to spend 60$ on any game. That is the price that should drop to 40$, and the expansion to 30$.
