I just beat Mario Kart on the WIi-U. This was my first experience with Nintendo dangling the DLC carrot. I'm having a hard time remembering what the first console DLC I ever purchased since they became a thing around the 360 generation. It might have been a Modern Warfare (2007) DLC with Microsoft Points. Did we ever get the "why aren't woman hairy thing sorted?" Yikes!!

The first DLC I've ever bought was Forza Motorsport 4 November 2011 car pack.

I think they were free at the time, but if not it would be Halo 2 map packs back in 2005

Not a "console player" these days, but I'll reply anyway.

It's either the all of the DLC for the 360 version of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed in one purchase, or Big Surf Island for the 360 version of Burnout Paradise.

Maybe the map packs for Call of Duty 2, but I think probably actually the new co-op/multiplayer map pack for GRAW 1.

My first purchased DLC that I can remember is the Marvel's Spiderman episodic story with Hammer Head as the villain. I got it when it was all together as one expansion, not the three chapter based form it was first released as.

I'm pretty sure it was the Lightning scenario DLC for FFXIII-2, Requiem of the Goddess.

Still haven't bought many DLCs. I can probably count the DLCs I've bought with my hands. More often than not, if I don't get the GOTY version or w/e, I play the vanilla game and move on.

My first console DLC ever is a weird point of pride for me. I bought DLC for Project Gotham Racing 2. Looking into it a bit, it was released in 2004, which were the early and weird days of Xbox Live. I used to stay up late playing PGR2 with a random group of friends from around the world. Super cool stuff.

I've had plenty of free Forza car packs but the first I paid money for might've actually been The Old Hunters for Bloodborne.

For me it was Borderlands 1. They even sold disc versions of the DLC which is what I bought!

I could be mistaken but I’m almost positive it was the Mass Effect Bring Down the Sky DLC on the 360.

My guess would be Lair of the Shadow Broker - and all the DLC that preceded it - for Mass Effect 2. That'd line up with the first time I felt I was adulting well enough to 'splurge' on additional content for a game, and when I started to read all of the novels.

I think Rock Band music, but it could have been the time trial levels in Mirror's Edge. The ones made up of floating shapes like a Mario game.

Halo 2 map packs were not free initially. You would have to pay for them and they would have their own playlist. When the next pack came out, the previous one became free and those maps were then added into regular playlists.

Was there a map pack for the original F.E.A.R.? If there was, it was almost certainly that. That was my first game on 360 and I got heavily into the multiplayer.

Horse Armor, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Considering it actually reduced damage your horse took, it's been more useful than any cosmetic that exists today. Funny how time absolves or condemns things.

The first console game, I THINK, I downloaded DLC for is SOCOM 2. The games KIllzone and Battlefield 2 on PS2 had DLC for online play maps for sure. And, of course, FF 11 came with the PS 2 HDD. When Final Fantasy came bundled with a 40 GB drive the stories said, "Resident Evil: Outbreak and Syphon Filter: the Omega Strain also plan on using the device." SO they *might* have had stuff too.

If anyone bought FF11 at launch, I'd be shocked if their first console DLC wasn't on PS2; or if they owned Dreamcast it was on that. Ubiquitous, paid DLC came later on consoles; so that might have been more negative and thus more memorable.

I think it was a costume pack for a Tales game. Pretty sure it was Tales of Graces f on PS3.

To make it worse, it was a Japanese import, so I had to buy Japanese PSN credit to get it.

I felt very dirty after making the purchase, and vowed to never again buy DLC costumes.

The Broken Steel add-on for Fallout 3 on my roommate's Xbox 360. I poured so much time into FO3.

I think it must have been Undead Nightmare. I definitely got all the Oblivion DLC earlier than that, but I installed it all off a friend's GOTY Xbox disc and didn't pay for it, so that doesn't count. To this day, I generally don't buy DLC unless it's along the lines of a traditional expansion pack.

Not 100% certain, but I think Shivering Isles for Oblivion may have been the first DLC I bought. If it wasn't the very first, it was at least very close to it.

It's going to be some sort of 'Gold edition' of a game that i bought later on. I still hardly buy DLC for games to be honest. The first time i really went on steam and was like 'okay i need these DLC's ' was probably.. Civilization 5?

My first expansion pack.. now that's probably something like Black & White Creature Islands.

I don’t know if it counts, since I don’t think the term “DLC” was widely used yet, and I think it falls more into the expansion category, but probably the Master Levels for Doom II.

It's hard to remember, but I'm going to say it was one of the DLCs for Sleeping Dogs (idk which of the three expansions). I enjoyed that game to the point that any reason to spend more time with it was a good reason; so, even though the DLC packs were kind of B-Movie quality, I had a great time playing all of them. 👍

It was definitely the Halo 3 map packs. No regrets because that game is probably second favorite game of all time.
