Microtransactions tend to be small things such as weapons, items, or player classes. Actual playable content like additional campaign missions usually costs more than a dollar or two.

I guess if we want to look at Mass Effect, you could say that the Lair of the Shadow Broker, Arrival, and Overlord were more like traditional expansion packs: they cost between $5 and $10 and contained fairly lengthy self-contained chunks of story which were not necessary but added something worthwhile to the game, but then the various weapon packs or character costumes were more like what you'd think of as microtransactions: $2-$5, and they contained fairly minor items which didn't add anything to the game's story.

sooo I guess if they have a hit and decide to expand the story or whatever, cool. If they're just pawning off extra guns and shit, well, fuck that shit.
