They actually sold in-game currency and upgrade kits for a single player game, and you could only use them one time. Like not even on your next save file. And it's all stuff that you find in the game anyway. Sprung on the developers at the very last minute by Square Enix, too. Eidos Montreal was pretty pissed about it apparently.
