Hi Michael, Oh, I see. Well, I really haven't any idea why developers do that other than perhaps some marketing strategy. They probably feel by offering different content for one version and not making it available to the other will interest you in buying both versions to get the extra features or content available for that version. Either that or they feel console x has the most customers so they target that group specifically while ignoring the other target groups. Its all market driven for the most part, and while it doesn't make sense to us it must make sense to them.
Cheers!
