Seriously?!?!? I'll have to pay additional fees to play all the characters in Killer Instinct? Killer Instinct (2013 video game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Am I reading this correctly? Am I the only one that finds **** like this absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable?

Very nice MC. I'm debating on getting ghosts for PS3 or PS4. I feel like more people will buy it for PS3, but it obviously looks better and has more features (18 player modes for mp) on PS4

killer instinct is only a $20 downloadable game for all 8 characters ( 6 initial on launch then spinal and fulgore come soon after) then through march they are adding a few more. so even if you buy all the characters you arnt even paying the full price of a traditional game

DLC characters are common for fighting games and most of those come on top of a $60 game. so if you look at it that way its not a bad deal

technically the game is free with Jago and you can buy each of the 8 characters individually or just buy the $20 version with all of them

there is a $40 version but it doenst have any more characters just different costumes and the arcade version of the original game

ive got a $25 best buy card so the day before it comes out im gonna buy one of those $25 xbox live cash cards there and get the game for free

ah okay, this makes a lot more sense. I assumed the typical $60 price tag. Call off the pitch forks

MC · 11-08-2013, 03:05 PM

honestly I would almost rather it have been a $60 complete disc based game rather than this free to play add on type route they've taken

should be cool though all the videos ive seen of gameplay are pretty crazy and I was all about the first one when I was younger

Just got a call last night to remind me about my preorders and how to pick them up at midnight. I said see you Friday evening lol.

coolvans1988 · 11-11-2013, 07:14 PM

Luckily i'm off on Nov.22

coolvans1988 · 11-13-2013, 07:39 PM

Anyone took advantage of Amazon's buy 2 get 1 free for PS4 titles? Target is having a similar deal this week. Hopefully there is one for Xbox One games... Keep an eye out folks to save an extra $60!

MC · 11-13-2013, 08:06 PM

If anyone is getting the PS4 at midnight here is the required update file

might be a good idea to DL it now on a USB and update manually so you wont have to wait on possibly slow servers ( just incase they are)

Download & Install PlayStation®4 System Software Update from PlayStation®

Thanks for the tip! Downloading it now. PS4 in a few hours, it feels like Christmas!

I'm so torn... I really don't use my PS3 much anymore so I want to trade it in...but GT6 is just right around the corner.

I'll be waiting a few months to see how many new systems catch fire.

Me too. I'm on Xbox360 #5. My PS3 is getting a little wonky too. I'll wait until the first model year glitches iron themselves out.

ElVee · 11-14-2013, 09:56 AM

Normally I adopt new consoles in the first month or never at all. This year is a bit different. I don't have any compelling reasons to jump on either side from the start, and I've not been playing my current XBox360 at all for the last 8 months.

For now, I'll stick to Steam (reluctantly) and PC gaming and see where my friends go.

Chuck33079 · 11-14-2013, 09:58 AM

I usually buy one at launch, and the rest after the first big price cut.

Mr&Mrs · 11-14-2013, 11:19 AM

I do not blame anyone for waiting especially if they had one of the bad Xboxs (or 4 like chuck). I just feel like a little kid again with these two systems for some reason and I cant wait to get my hands on them!
