Lost Planet 2's Wesker no longer a GameStop exclusive

Who the hell wants Wesker anyway? I want a HD Ada Wong...I bet she'd give Chloe Frazer a run for her money...

It's a hand cannon!

Ah so that's where Wesker went after Chris blew him away.

Even if this was Gamestop exclusive, all you would have to do is walk in and ask for the bonus. I've done this for every game when I've had to rely on Gamestop.

It's nice to see that Capcom pays attention to what its fans have to say, and (sometimes) acts accordingly.

I certainly hope that the rest of the graphics are better than this polygonal mess. Not that graphics are the be- and end-all, but c'mon. . .


[runs off to check other screenies] hmmm. . . pretty average. [/runs off to check other screenies]

Joystiq, I believe it is "pursuit of happyness"

I'd rather have a Helghast trooper, or Sackboy...

I hope Capcom now knows we need a Wesker spin-off. EASY MONEY

Wow, so fan upheaval isn't anything for releasing two exclusive multiplayer maps to immediately splinter the userbase? It's for a skin?

...Um, Capcom, those are the Resident Evil fans you're concerned about, they don't really seem to care about actually playing your Lost Planet 2 multiplayer, apparently.

Good because I wasn't planning on pre-ordering it at LameStop.

Idunno Capcom has been releasing some stinkers lately. I think I'm gonna hold off on preordering this.

I played two minutes of the demo and quickly deleted it.

WTF is up with the controls?!?

Making extra content exclusive to one retailer irks the shit out of me. I guess it's not so bad if it's just released later as free DLC, but charging for it is a crock of jizz. The closest Gamestop to Radford is in a mall (full of mouth-breathing VTech fans and surly teenagers) about 25 minutes away, and I don't think the people working there actually play games that much. It takes me 5 minutes to get to Replay Games, which is spacious, open later, offers decent compensation for trade-ins, and has friendly, knowledgeable staff. Sometimes I'll go in and pick up a cheap older game just to shoot the shit with them. There's no reason I would put up with the displeasure of Gamestop over Replay, especially knowing that it'll only encourage more GS-exclusive content.

It may seem like a petty reason to not buy Lost Planet 2, but I hate this trend and would like to see it die out. I'm sure I'll pick it up used at some point, and if they charge for the DLC I'll just go without it.

To the chagrin of everyone else: Multi-player Wesker can only be defeated by a button press of the Square or X button, respectively.

With Wesker, I think this game doesn't need to be coop.
Wesker could blow that big monster with a single punch :D
I bet he wouldn't even need to transform like he did in RE5.

Nothing should be a damn Gamestop exclusive. If there's going to be a preorder bonus then it should be available from any major retailer.

@Temidien

I don't know how you took my post,
but I meant "beat the hell out of that monster" :)
Not that "blow", if you what I'm saying :p

And the monster I was talking about is this.

We have to go back, Kate.
