Isn't the content offered digitally on PS3?

Azis wins the prize.

They offer the entire thing, the exact same as the physical retail disc version, on PSN 'cause they(PSN) have been doing that a lot with games recently. It'll be available digitally on XBL through Games on Demand some time after launch, but again, it's the same thing.

So, Azis wins the prize of completely proving you wrong? Correct me if I am wrong (actually, don't, because I am already correct so it would be rude to do so) but isn't "Wasteful, Shortsighted, but not all that bad" completely different than "Capcom are Satan!"?

I think it is. If you look close enough, and really think about it, I think you will see that it is, too.

Well I was wrong. Pointing it out does nothing.

edit- THE PLOT THICKENS.

Finally was assed to do some more digging around for source material since the articles I read refused to put an actual source link. That above link was courtesy of DD's Facebook page.

In North America Dragon�s Dogma: Dark Arisen will be available at retail stores for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and as a download from PlayStation Network on April 23, 2013 for $39.99.

Looks like this sweet deal just got a fistful of Capcom Satan magicks.

edit2- Azis also loses his prize in light of these recent developments, because it just went from "not being that bad" to "Capcom being shitty Capcom"

Meh. It just sounds like Street Fighter 2.

Nikose Tyris · 01-23-2013, 07:46 PM

...But nothing actually changed from what you said earlier. It's just repeating it.

I think I'm going to buy this; I put off buying DD for ages, so it just seems smart.

Thanks Snake for highlighting the selling points so clearly.

God damn it, Capcom. It's like they're trying to piss people off now.

Marc v4.0 · 01-23-2013, 07:48 PM

Ok, 20 bucks was a good deal all around, 40 bucks is only a good deal for new people. I'll wait till it drops to 20 bucks.

Solid Snake · 01-23-2013, 07:51 PM

...If it's $40 and not $20, and if there's no option available to download the expansion DLC separately, then yeah, it starts to look a lot more like a douche move from Capcom.

Arcanum · 01-23-2013, 07:55 PM

I take full responsibility for being dumb and trusting the first few sites to show up on google when I initially searched this instead of looking for an actual source.

People who have never purchased Dragon's Dogma before should still definitely buy this, because DD's a great game and even without the additional content $40 is a steal. The extra content and improvements will just make it even better.
