milking their customer with DLC clothing...

Remember they said that "unlockables are so out of date..."

Wich has yet to be a point for your arguments .

I mean the logic is quite silly to not say another word .
SF4 made you unlock colors (wtf ?) and still sold you costumes

So where is the correlation here ? Since when unlockables prevents dlcs ?

There was no argument here. I wasn't arguing with anyone. Just trying to point out the fact that there was an article yesterday which they say "unlockables are so yesterday". I just find it funny.

But back to your "argument". I just took the comment from them to mean that they are getting away with unlockable in order to try to sell more DLC. If they make enough $$ from DLC and people don't mind paying for it, what's to prevent them from changing what's normally unlockables to make you pay for everything?

RE5 multiplayer anyone?

"So where is the correlation here ? Since when unlockables prevents dlcs ? "
This is not a black and white type of deal here. One does not prevent the other. But having more DLCs where a company can get money for will more than likely drive them to have more DLC than to make free content in form of unlockables. Perhaps the development team have this great content that was meant for the users to unlock, but then the sales team looked at how well the SFIV DLC sold and may be like "why don't we make it a DLC??"

But thing is some of you guys keeps repeating it , and it still got no correlation whatsoever .

All those "conspiracy" theories about ways to propose DLCs avails to nothing , when they already do propose whatever they can get away with anyway .

Since 2008 all or close to all next gen fighters proposed dlcs , and almost all of them were with unlockables , actually the worst offenders ( SF4 and sc4) had the most stuff to unlock so far .

hell it's even easier for games with unlockables , when you propose stuff like characters , items or full unlocks via dlc for newbies .

I'm not a fan of dlcs either , far from it even , but unlockables or not , they'll be there and their presence would only increase .

Tekken 5 DR HD for the PS3 had no DLC at all.

All the characters were unlocked to begin with, just like Tekken 6.

But all the extra costumes and clothing are unlocked through playing the game and getting money every time you win.

Tekken has about 2 weeks in order to sell that much after that it's going to be hell with COD4:2.0

Because I would take a fighter over a shooter any day. One on One combat. No one to rely on but yourself. That's true skills.

IFRIT do you even checks sales before mentioning them ?

Old school and 2d fighting took a heavy beating for a long long time .
Wich is why it was a nice and awesome surprise to see SF4 go back in the multiple millions .

SC4 did that easily and doesnt nearly got Tekken's popularity .

You probably like it so much cause it's a button masher. I like the game too, but c'mon, you can map specials and super combos to the right stick! There went any kind of skill out the window. This game won't catch on to the big fighting game leagues.

yeah you can map buttons but u can disable it its user friendly and you know that, blazblue is way more complex then sf4 cant say tekken 6 because i never played it

Baka-akaB - 165 days 6 hours ago

more complex isnt equal to better game .
Each are different period .

And all 3 are pretty good . t6 is probably the weaker imo because of their late trend of abusing Juggles combos , but that's something that already was heavily present in Capcom and Arc fighting games too (houto no ken urg....)

wow, that was a whole bunch of typing to really say nothing. i never said anything about any one of them being a best seller. i dont even like street fighter. but my post about street fighter is 100% truth. street fighter did what cant be done with hardware sales alone. so you obviously missed the point of my previous post.

is the best fighting game ever made

i agree but better precise wich . Coz while some are unanimously loved by fans (97..98) the 00's ones are subject to heated debates .

Imo Kof died after '98 , tried a timid but decent revival with XI , and finally is back with a vengeance with XII .
