In World of Warcraft, Blizzard took a epic mount drop, re-skinned it, and sold it for $15. And armies of players bought them and proudly rode (or flew) around the cities on them.
$15 dollars right there.
and this is why i'm purchasing all my capcom games used, i'm not supporting this BS anymore. I buy your damn game for 60 bucks and yet i can't access all the content on the disc. Thats f*cked.
Claiming that the Vita will have extra characters is probably the only real way it would sold much on it, because lolfightersonhandhelds.
Why play on a handheld what you could have a better experience with on a console, if not for 'exclusive' content?
LOL.
They sold people an "$80 game", locked 1/4 of the content and expect them to pay the difference in unlock keys. Oh well. :lol:
The game is bombing in sales right now, but Capcom still expects a cash cow to spawn out of nowhere with "DLC", even though they got exposed.
Smh... they're looking pretty silly right now. They need to fix the problems with SFxT (primarily the s**t netcode and sound issues) before anything.

My brother bought one of those and I constantly made fun of him for it :P
I thought it was $25 though.
[QUOTE="LP4EVA2005"]i miss the old days when all it took was beating the game to unlock characterschocoomanin the old days you also had to spend 70 dollars for a new edition of a fighting game with only 4 characters. The old days were definitely worse than nowadays.
$70? 4 Characters? i was talking about PS2 era..what old days are you talking about? :?
I wonder if the next set of DLC characters will be $20 on the Vita's store...or will they only release them in SFxT: Ultra?PlaneforgerThere is no M$ in the handheld world, so DLC is pretty much non-existent.
12 characters for 20 bucks isn't bad at all, really. I'm more concerned about the crappy netcode the game has. It's such a fun game, but the lag ruins the online play.
really? I think the online is capcom's best this gen, if only they fix the sound glitch.12 characters for 20 bucks isn't bad at all, really. I'm more concerned about the crappy netcode the game has. It's such a fun game, but the lag ruins the online play.

PS2 era was no better really either. I think a lot of the times people are just more aware of what happens with fighting games nowadays and lack knowledge of what happened in previous gens. But for an example look at how many editions of Guilty Gear came out last gen. Arcsys made like 1 guilty gear a year for about 6 years straight and they definitely didn't even add a lot of characters in them. PS2 era or any era before it, certainly wasn't as good as you think it is, it's just you are more aware.$70? 4 Characters? i was talking about PS2 era..what old days are you talking about? :?

That's not saying much.
When a high profile game such as SFxT can't even hold a candle to BlazBlue and SCV (both games developed on super tight budgets) in terms of netcode, it makes you wonder if Capcom half-asses online multi-player on purpose.
I haven't played SC5 yet, but Blazblue and SFxT are on par with me. If I'm playing someone with full bars it's really really great aside from the sound issue though that I really hope they fix.The main issue I'd say with SFxT comparison to Blazblue is that they use an entirely different netcode. Example: SFxT is more like GGPO so if your connection isn't good with someone, you'll experience a lot of rollback issues, and that problem is handled different in blazblue if you don't have perfect connection.That's not saying much.

thats false. even the snes days you had alot characters and back then physical storage was issue.PSP107It's not false at all. You don't know what you are talking about really. Barely any games back then had over 30 characters. Each edition of Street fighter 2 cost around 70 bucks and what was worst about that was that on SF2, it actually had characters on it you couldn't access at all, but were available in later editions of the game. I'm just opening people's eyes. A lot of rose tinted glasses when it comes to fighting games in the old days, that's why some people are actually fine with this.

Figure it out
You stink, go take a showerin the old days you also had to spend 70 dollars for a new edition of a fighting game with only 4 characters. The old days were definitely worse than nowadays. but it made you motivated to play the game well. i rather have that than have to pay for characters. I'm motivated by friends around me who play fighting games and sometimes are better than me, not by how many characters are in a game or when characters will come.[QUOTE="chocooman"][QUOTE="LP4EVA2005"]i miss the old days when all it took was beating the game to unlock charactershelwa1988

I'm pretty sure he's just trolling. That or he truly is dumb enough to defend Capcom for their nickel and diming.
