Okay, got it.

Yeah, not a fan of this. The DLC will not be free. At all. Under any circumances. Microsoft seriously doesn't like free DLC, after all (look at the trouble they had with Unreal Tournament). Sony may have no issues with it, but charges for the bandwith used (or whatever it is), meaning it will cost Capcom to slap it up, and they won't shoulder the costs. In short: this sucks.

And will the Blu-ray be filled with all the cut material?

Uh... No.

Unsurprisingly, I think Microsoft would through a hairy fit if the PS3 game had significantly more content than the 360 equivalent. Pretty much all of this sucks. We will get half the game for our money, then we'll have to pay much more for the rest. Which should have been included. For free.

Good job, Capcom. Lost a customer here. I'll maybe pick this up when all the DLC is included in a later, special edition. Maybe.



If they truly cared for their customers they'd release the multiplayer (Not Co-op campaign) on a second disc.

The cut content may be free. The multiplayer maps are for Lost Planet but I'm not sure if they had a price on them originally.

Oh and funny enough Lost Planet and Lost Planet Colonies had the same install size. Pretty odd considering Colonies had an extra 12 or so multiplayer maps and other content.

Oh for god sakes, you're so transparant, anything to take a dig at Microsoft.

Blame Capcom if you want to blame anyone, they could put this on the bluray disc and offer it as free OR paid DLC on Xbox live but no ...

It was Capcom I was blaming.

As starcraft said, it's relatively inexpensive to spread a game over 2 DVDs so, regardless of whether Capcom were too cheap to use a second or too greedy not to go down the 'pay us $60 for the disc now... and $10 again down the' road (or both!), they've still compromised the game's experience off-the-shelf and that angers me as I got quite hyped for purchasing after trying out the demo.

This had nothing to do with taking a dig at Microsoft or the DVD format, yet predictably you tried to spin it as such. Urgh.

Bullshit, you only posted this because it puts the Xbox in bad light, you're the predictable one.

But it puts Capcom in a bad light (for being cheap, greedy, or both) and that's who I'm complaing about, don't you see?

(Well, clearly you don't; you have your head down, charging at me - "wholikeswood be trollin' Microsoft grrrrr!!!!111". Yawn...)

Don't be playing all innocent and naive. It put's them both in a bad light, you're one of a few posters on this site that will post anti Microsoft news any chance they get, this isn't any different.

Looking at the threads I've created for the past 6 months, I see just one topic that was Microsoft-critical and that was a hands-on with ODST back in September that described the game as "underwhelming" and indeed the game wound up with a Metascore of 83 (and criticism for providing a 5 hour campaign, just 3 new multiplayer maps, and a horde mode - all for the price of a full game), so the article was hardly far off the mark.

This thread is about Capcom, not Microsoft, so let's not derail it. Chilled!

hang on... a metacritic of 83 = underwhelming?

 

 

Considering that are review system for this gen rarely gives anything below an 80 and this is a halo title..........yeah that's extremely underwhelming.

Bullshit lets get real here Seece. The DVD limitations are holding games back and if it wasn't for Microsoft and there crappy hardware decisions people would be enjoying this content for free. I'm going to get banned for this but I couldn't care less. Your the biggest fanboy I've ever came accross accusing people of having hidden agendas against Microsfoft all the time.

 

Remember the time you accused me of not buying the GTA4 DLC because it was on the Xbox 360 first. Well yeah you pissed me off so much with your fanboy accusations then that I forgot the following. How the fuck was I taking a stand against the DLC for being on the Microsoft platform first when I've bought many games that ported over to the PS3 on later dates and bought all 5 Fallout 3 DLCs date of release on PS3.

I have to say your one person that if I ever bumped into on the street I would kick the living shit out of you. Its people like you that make me hate the Xbox 360. Now go cry and get me banned again like a good little pansy boy.

They are going to fail with LP2.

I feel 83 for an $60 FPS Halo is a bit underwhelming. Subjective issue, I suppose.

Shut up, I already know it's partly fault of Microsoft for not having a a big enough disc space, but Capcom can make the call whether to make this DLC free or not.

You make me lol, you would actually attack someone for mildly winding you up on the internet, you have anger issues and a deep sever problem if so. And no, I don't care how big you are, you would fucking try and beat me. I spent enough time with ex police officer BF to learn how to deal with scum on the streets.

edit - "accusing people of having hidden agendas against Microsfoft all the time"

It's no secret wholiekswood isn't a fan of Microsoft.

wow.. ok... there are some pretty poor gamers out there then that sell lots

Infact only 83 games are not "underwhelming" on PS3... I guess its a bit better on the 360 at 97. phew.

Hell I would beleive that, a lot of shovelware crap comes out on all consoles and there have been a lot of major let downs this generation.

Devs are really struggling with the disc space in 2010. They want to make bigger games than those in 2003.
