I'm not gonna join the boycott, as I've grown sick of Capcom's games a long time ago. They've turned to shit, in my opinion.

Now I'm going to pre-order it. Thank you for changing my mind from getting it second-hand!


Seriously this is getting pathetic, I wouldn't mind but when Netherealm decides to reskin the same costume over and over, BT treats it like its the greatest thing innovation since the D-pad.

Yup, I was thinking exactly the same thing. Since I saw the Jimquisition I've noticed four thread THIS WEEK calling for boycotts. Seriously, get a thesaurus!

The game looks shit, the whole series looked like a gimick to me and this one looks like a cash in gimick. If you don't want it, don't buy it. I'd hardly call consumer choice worthy of the term boycott! Boycott should be used for something you're forced into doing, like a game you already paid for demanding more money or unreasonable levels of security to play the damned thing, not some new game that's come out that few people are interested in!

Meh, I'll join the boycott. I wasn't exactly planning on getting it anyway, so at least this way I can attach some vague noble motive to it.

Boycott? Good luck with that. If you don't want it, don't buy it, I say.

Why are you pissed about this? It's as simple as not buying it.

I see it as a pretty good deal. The DLC characters would be MORE than the $40 on their own, and that's not counting the new stages, spectator mode, ETC.

You go ahead and enjoy the regular MvC3. I'm going to enjoy the upgraded version.

Lowered price, rebalanced game mechanics and existing character roster including new moves for some characters, an exceptional (and exceptionally large) roster increase, altered story modes, improved online play with spectator viewing all released in a single disc update that makes it perfect for dedicated players and tournament play?

I don't see anything worth boycotting here, and I certainly won't be boycotting UMvC3.

No.
It is cheaper for you to buy UMVC than to buy all the 12(?) characters being released. This is a good thing.
Stop whining.

Way ahead of you on this one, I "boycotted" Marvel vs Capcom 3 so I could pick up Ultimate at a budget price and with more characters.

I shalt not boycott this.

Good on Capcom for not cutting out the part of the market that can't access DLC. For those people (including myself), it's disc or nothing.

I WOULD, but for the price of UMvC3 I would be able to buy 3 characters at DLC price (in Australia...sigh). As much as it annoys me, it's a financial bargain to just buy the new game.

It just makes me feel like I paid $60 to be a beta tester though, which I do not appreciate in the slightest. Frustrating, then, that this is looking like a good deal regardless.

lol me too. One thing i love about this industry is those who wait not even a year can save HUGE money. I never bought the original game and now i get a fuller and more balanced experience for less. I can see where others are coming from but i win.

Do I count as "taking part" if I never intended to have anything to do with it anyway?

If so, you may count on my steadfast indifference.

Srsly?
This is capcom we're talking about here.
They've re-released every game of theirs at least once.
and no not just street fighter
the RE franchise,DMC3,MH franchise Dead rising 2,even MVC2 was re-released as a HD port
yet people start to ***** when theyre latest game gets an expansion
Look at it in this way
Most of these characters were planned as DLC anyway,so if UMVC3 didn't happen you'd be paying 12 x 5 bucks for these which is 60 bucks with the balancing issues still intact

[HEADING=3]Objection![/HEADING]

Sorry but Phoenix Wright on his own is a good enough reason for me to buy it on launch. Plus it's a budget price (£25? I think) and has a ton of extra characters.

And you know there would be more backlash if Capcom announced 12 characters as paid DLC for MvC3. It would be more expensive for one.

Not to mention the new H&H mode actually adds replay value, must. Get. Godot. Card. Now!

I intend to buy it but thats because I was expecting this and didnt end up buying MVC3 (but I did borrow it from a friend to see if I liked the new stuff). If you're really against this then thats great, stick to your principles and dont buy the game but I would also send capcom a letter and tell them why you wont be buying their game. That may have more impact then just a lack of sales which they'll probably blame on a combination of used game stores and piracy

I refuse to buy any "Capcom Vs. Whatever" or "Whatever Vs. Capcom" game until they include Katt from Breath of Fire II as one of the playable characters.
