You guys honestly expected something outside of the norm of capcom gouging for shit they already released, with just a few bells and whistles and glitter sprinkled on top? They have a well established track record for doing this and raking in hand over fist, why stop now?

Silly silly people.

Oh Capcom. How can you create such amazing games as Ghost Trick:Phantom Detective, the Phoenix Wright series, and Devil May Cry 1 and 3, and then turn around and do things like reselling a whole game with a few new features instead of offering it in both a DLC download and a full game version, like Batman Arkham Asylum/City did so that you can make money off new AND returning players while only -mildly- insulting either group.

Also, Capcom, I'm still unsure how I feel about this "DMC" nonsense in which Dante is a brunette and it's totally the Devil May Cry origin story even though there already WAS a very successful DMC origin story. I want to automatically hate it, but I haven't actually played it so I'll tone the hate down to mild disgust for now. (Seriously, DMC 3 was probaly the most popular and best executed game in the series. Why make a prequel to it when it's already a prequel? Is it retconning DMC3 away or is it an additional backstory? I don't even know.) So yeah. Totally off subject, but you still lose points for that too, Capcom.

Once again being a cheap bastard pays off again!

Dishonored is I think literally the first non-Game of the Year edition game I've bought since Grand Theft Auto IV, I figured since I was getting it so cheap and that it was so great I wouldn't really regret paying another 20 down the road. Oh, and Assasin's Creed games but there are no Game of the Year editions of those still in print.

But anyway the bullshit they pulled with Street Fighter IV should have tipped everyone off, I would think...

EDIT: Wait, I bought Red Dead Redemption non-Game of the Year.

the second thing that bothers me (the first is that early adopters always get screwed by Capcom) is the fact that purchasing these "rehashes" encourages the company on keep going with the same practices over and over...

Not only am I keeping my prize, but I'm not even gonna buy the game anymore. Forty bucks, forget that! I don't even care if it's Dragon's Dogma. Graphical featured release on PC with mod support, then maybe. Or $15-20 in the bargain bin on console.

I want to like DmC (ugh just typing it like that to reference the new one makes me sad) because Ninja Theory is awesome (Heavenly Sword and Enslaved are absolutely fantastic games, even with their flaws), but ugggghhhhh. Although critics have been liking it? I dunno. Hopefully them cashing in on the DMC name brand will let them create another new IP.

e- Azis I already donated your prize to charity. It was a pony. They may have used her to feed homeless children instead of letting them ride her.

Okay time to explain the DMC thing.

Long story short, Capcom wanted to make a DMC5. But the creator of the series said no, he didn't want DMC to be milked. DMC4 was meant to be the last game in the series. No more after that.

Capcom says "no" and makes DMC5(a.k.a DmC) anyway. And uses it to reboot the series into something they can milk without legal issues. This is actually part of the reason why Dante's appearance was changed. Due to a potential lawsuit fomr the creator of the series whom apparantly owns Dante's likeness.

And as for his hair... it turns white at the end. So it'll be white in DmC2 onward.

As for the game itself, it's actually pretty damn good. My uncle picked it up and it's feeling pretty good so far. only complaint is that it's not ball busting hard like the original DMC games were.

Don't they have a DLC costume pack coming out really soon that lets you look like the original Dante?
