Tekken 1 to 5 had everything on the disc. Whats the harm in horse armour? Right....?

MDTunkown213d ago

Tekken 6 had no dlc’s and tag tournament 2 had 6 or something free doc characters

Thats true, and while i wont pretend there is no intent to sell extra content. Its 2024, not 2004. You could argue if T8 shipped and never had DLC then, "everything is on the disc". Would that be better?

And lets be fair, the release version has more stages, more characters, more costumes, more modes and a longer single player campaign than Tekken 1-5 and pretty much every other Fighter. So yeah, it might seem a little shitty, but credit where its due it was not a bad package at launch.

Dickriding hard.

Generally when "editions" or "season passes" are announced, they specifically list what future content you will get. They never include "all future content free".

So was this new DLC listed in any of that? It wasn't. Cry baby gamers once again.

This is what is in the Ultimate Edition. Clear as day.

And that's why I pirate games sucker's that pay for games getting everything for free

This is the kind of greed which made so many gamers abandon the fighting game genre, and it just gets worse and worse.

I'll wait for a complete edition with everything on disc release before I dive in

Astro bot at 2nd place? That's impressive

Purchased my copy last week!

MaximusPrime_19d ago

Great!

I bought this game at launch. Brilliant game

andy8519d ago

Been so many good deals on the console with astro included this week. Might be why. Not knocking it by that comment BTW.

Interesting. Wonder if the narrative that this game is selling poorly is still floating around.

Abear2119d ago (Edited 19d ago )

It’s not. And it is strange to wonder about notions in people’s heads but we all have to waste time thinking about something I suppose

Playing Astro Bot right now and having a blast. Though I really hate the tiny shape levels

Relientk7719d ago

Some of the shape levels are a real pain. Legit the hardest levels in the game

I finished Astrobot 3 times hahaha...it's just THAT good! I finally caved and bought the PSVR (used and comes with 2 MOVE controllers and physical copy of Ark Park for $125) to play Rescue Mission and MY GOD it's an even better game! totally worth it!

@badz
Rescue Mission might be my favorite PSVR game!
