Hopefully this is a little more in-depth like the Catwoman missions, Robin and Nightwing DLC weren't worthy of achievements/trophies.

@ironneko The only April fools are the ones buying that sinking ship.

You guys wanna know the worst part? Not only do hackers have access to the 12 characters, THEY'VE BEEN PLAYING THEM ON XBOX LIVE! I don't know the technical details that allow them to evade desyncing/automatic banning, but I've seen it with my own two eyes. You see them select the standard characters whose files they replaced with DLC ones, but when the match starts they're playing as the DLC ones.

@jchan By default Street Fighter characters usually have Japanese voice actors (Japanese Zangief speaks Japanese (obviously) but has some English and Russian phrases), while Tekken characters usually speak their native languages. Ono said they might switch to Tekken's way of doing things in the future. But yeah, in this almost every character can be switched between English and Japanese. Which is good because Hugo's English voice is awesome while his Japanese voice is atrocious.

@Ectoplasm Eh but on second thought, is there really any other way to handle it? Blizzard's in quite a pickle but they need to do what they need to do.

@eat it Especially with Diablo III due as soon as Q2, and a huge portion of PC gamers being Valve customers/zealots... I actually think Blizzard is in the right in suing Valve, but whether they're SMART to be handling it so publicly is another story.

@DeXterminator Everyone knows you have to flip the cross HORIZONTALLY for it to have negative connotations.

@Ectoplasm Er and when I say that, I mean share one game/gamertag/console because there would be no other way.

@Teeree The scary part is that when digital downloads are mandatory, customers have NO flexibility. You either pay for the $100 digital copy or you go without, because there's no borrowing/used copies and you're a filthy criminal if you mod your console. That is the day I quit gaming unless I work out a deal with several other people to share the cost and game.

It's a step in the right direction but you save (supposedly) 10% on a boxed copy while they save God knows how much. There are obviously server costs and everything, but the bandwidth of one single download is almost nothing to them. They need to offer more of an incentive than saving a couple bucks for me to pick a digital copy over a boxed one.
