Ninja Gaiden 2 BS DLC
BlindsideDork | 10:45 AM on 05.09.2008 18 comments


Same story, different game. The title is not even released and plans of downloadable content are already laid out for you to squeem at. Just like the recent endeavor with FFCC for WiiWare, Ninja Gaiden 2 will let you pay 200 points for costumes. I will say, the first costume seen does venture on edge of must-have cause of the epicness...



...but still, $2.50 to make your character look different seems a bit much. I will admit I did buy costumes on XBL before but they were like 50 points. Hey, I was young and stupid back then.

This one is a promotional item that will be given away with 39,000 copies of the game. It might be pre-order bonus for Japan only. If you don't get this, wait till Jully and dish out 200 MS points for the first of three costume packs.

It looks really cool though its a bit much. Seeing an in-game screen shot of the costume will be the determining factor for me.

art hot, dlc not so hot.

I never buy DLC unless it is so friggin hot and can harnesses my fapping powers. Then a 2% is risen of me getting it.

This rising trend in BS DLC is unsettling.

BS or not, that's some pretty sweet concept art.

I wanna see this shit in action first. And Im pretty sure this shit should be free in a country that actually cares about the 360.

Just. include. them. in. the. game. and. stop. being. greedy.

Seriously, for every game that does this, I lose my taste for gaming.

If you're going to sell me DLC, DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE GOING TO DO SO BEFORE THE GAME IS EVEN OUT!! Why isn't this stuff on the disc is beyond me.

I still can't wait to play this game though.

This isn't DLC...It's microtransactions.
Let's get our terminology right folks.

DLC (Downloadable Content) == Good!
Microtransactions == Bad!

This ain't DLC that is needed for completion of the game, its just cosmetic, don't want it? Don't fucking buy it.

Could be cheaper, but I don't mind this too much. At least you're not missing out on anything, if you choose not to buy it. I don't mind DLC being a little pricey if it's 110% optional.
