All I know is that this is going to make an already pissed off fanbase, more pissed off. It isn't going to change the minds of those that mindlessly buy whatever Capcom makes and tournament players, because they're going to make up those 60 bucks in a few money matches.
I just have to wonder how low Capcom has to go with DLC. I wonder if when Darkstalkers comes out, they'll give you the first two characters free and the rest are "DLC."
