I just beat Rayman Origins. It was alright, just makes me wish super hard that this stupid local but no online co-op thing doesn't happen anymore.

no i am using the 360 controller.

all you need to do is connect the 360 controller to your pc and then play it. You can also use an arcade fighstick too but i prefered 360 controller since i already had 360 console years before street fighter games started coming to PC and i dint want to buy an arcade fightstick just for it

Anyway, back to something relevant....

Capcom announced that all 12 characters will be released together for $20. That's... better than anyone could have predicted, but still absolute horses**t.

And they won't even be released until after the Vita version in the Autumn.

Goddammit.

*XERO* · 03-16-2012, 05:38 PM

Now I know what DLC stands for.

Definitely Losing Cash.

IamtheKnight · 03-16-2012, 06:47 PM

I know that PAX East is next month, but I would like to know if any forum members would be going.

That does suck

*Brodie* · 03-16-2012, 09:35 PM

I'm going, kind of excited to see some of the panels.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 03-16-2012, 09:37 PM

Wish I could go, maybe some day

Peanut · 03-16-2012, 10:22 PM

This was heavily weighed in my house this year. My fiance and I decided instead on a road trip to Flo-rida which would hook us up with my boyz and we'd all hit Universal.

More excited for that than I'd ever be for PAX.

Peanut · 03-16-2012, 10:31 PM

Holy sh*t at the DLC pricing for this game.

$46 for all the on-disc content. Like...what!? WHAT!? It's bad enough that their DLC was completed so far in advance it's actually able to make the print when the game releases, but then to charge such a ridiculous amount for it!? On top of the fact that they're holding it until the release of the Vita version?

How do people continue to support this kind of abuse from Capcom? They're taking advantage of so many pathetic people who can't help but fall for their fighting game sh*t that it should be a crime.

Again, can't wait for this whole fighting game resurgence to explode in their face. I'm glad so many people have begun to vote with their wallets.

*Cure* · 03-16-2012, 10:35 PM

That's a punch to the gut and I don't even care for this game.

*The Stryker* · 03-17-2012, 12:00 AM

I had the displeasure of playing this game today.

It's awful. I'd go as far to say it's garbage. I'm really glad it's flopping because it deserves it.

**Barkworm** · 03-17-2012, 12:30 AM

How about we merge the purchases thread with this one (they're very similar anyway), unsticky all the other threads and open a new "gaming news" thread? Those will probably be all the threads we need.

EDIT: Oh, and a tech support thread. Three threads.

Lordmylar06 · 03-17-2012, 12:30 AM

This game is flopping because of their DLC shenanigan. It's probably been pirated as opposed to bought because a pirated game will have all content available, like the DLC that was already on the disc.
It's pretty sad because I want to like this game, but can't allow myself to be too happy with the fact that I'm being robbed of content I technically own. Capcom lost my respect as a developer when the truth came out about this DLC crap.

Don't look at me. I still haven't even upgraded to SSFIVAE.

Peanut · 03-17-2012, 01:36 AM

I agree with that. Get to it!

I just played through Journey to completion in a single sitting. It's a little over an hour long, but you could probably pad it out if you're trying to find all the little stuff in it.

Man...some really fantastic moments in that game. For a game value proposition I don't think it's a fantastic investment. $15 for about 1.5 hours of play is pretty steep, but it's like going to see a movie or whatever, so it's not a huge stretch from that standpoint. I really believe it has to be played to truly appreciate the things it does well. The anonymous co-op is among the most powerful experiences I've ever had with a random person...when it works. When you get the Journey version of a power leveler in there, it falls apart entirely. Thankfully 3/4 of the game I experienced the co-op the way I imagine it was envisioned and it was such a fantastic experience.

The game is also really beautiful. Just really fantastic to look at from start to finish and a few scenes in particular are really "Wow!" moments the likes of which I haven't seen for years. Also, best late title card since X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
