Is it just me or does this character bear a striking resemblance to Light Yagami aka Kira from Death Note?

Its not DLC if its on DISC... cause you are not DOWNLOADING IT. You are downloading, and installing a KEY that unlocks already installed content. So on disc DLC cant exist because it breaks the notion of what the term download even means, even by a stretch. Read more

Monster Hunter Portable 3rd (Japan only) has an excellent DLC system. Buy the game, then DLC is offered for free. Read more

I don't get the argument that people just dislike on-disc content. Developers could just remove something from the release and then it's ok? Read more

Day-1 DLC is certainly more controversial than more traditional DLC (previously referred to as expansions) but there are actually very good reasons that day-1 DLC exists.

In fact, if you actually do any sincere research on the topic, in the vast majority of cases developers provided perfectly reasonable and rational… Read more

Idolmaster? Or something like that. Read more

Employed properly, DLC can meaningfully add on to what is already there, and can greatly expand the lifetime - and overall profitability - of a product. It's basically like an expansion pack from back in the olden days. Read more

Of course there isn't, but the media always like to twist things and make up lies. Read more

Psh, land sharks. They all die the same at the end of my blade. Read more

It's a dance/singing game called "Idolm@ster". There's two games I think, it's a pretty neat concept. YouTube it. Read more

Aw look at his lil legs ;P

To me, DLC is valid if a developer can say to themselves "This is awesome and really adds something new, but if i got struck down by lightning before i got a chance to release it i would still be mega proud of the amount of content in the game that was released." Read more

DLC is the cancer of modern video games. It hides under it's potential to do good and is almost exclusively done bad. Once a game is released, most of the the programming and resources are done, therefore a reasonable price for the average DLC should be under a dollar and the huge ones should be under 5. Not only are… Read more

But dtweety knock on your door and offer you candy grams? Read more

Most gamers are not smart enough to ever understand this. With the whole game done, even the hugest of DLCs shouldn't cost more than 5-10 dollars and most should cost less than a dollar. The fact that even "fairest" of DLCs is not even close to being priced the way it should be means that developers never had the… Read more

That looks like the first house you can build in the Hearthfire DLC in Skyrim. Crafting table and everything. Read more

Could have told me it was the US and not Japan and I wouldn't have thought anything of it really. Seems like the attitudes are roughly the same. Well...except for that comment about "additional costumes or jobs", as I would consider adding jobs to be more of an Asian game thing. Read more

To be fair, the main game is already beyond huge, and the 90% of the DLC doesn't really change the game in any way. The only one I'd call "needed" is the Gods and Kings expansion pack, which is a true expansion and adds tons of content and new ways to play the game. For the rest, if you really want it, just wait until… Read more

This game looks nice, but I have no idea which game it is... help?

I don't mind the tales method although I know many hate it. The costumes are cheap and they come with stat and skill increases, They also usually release several free dlc item packs which are a nice little boost. And for a father of two that works a full time job, its great to pay $1 to gain 5 levels vs wasting a… Read more
