Why did you have to bring that up? Anyhow, it's great that Xenoverse is getting DLC packs. It will only further the shelf life of the game and entice more people to buy the game. But this could also mean 'Game Of The Year' editions being released down the line with all the DLC included. Which I am not a fan of.

DLC is great news on the hand that it opens up the future prospects of the game... but slightly disconcerting given that if history is anything to go by, the game's shelf-life will only be a year, as in all probability they'll release a new game in 2016.

I think DLC is a brilliant idea when it's used to add new features and content to a game, but I think it's downright shoddy when it's used to complete an unfinished game at extra expense to the buyer - and in the case of Xenoverse, it's really damned hard to tell which one it is given the rather nebulous release and schedule and strategy of the three packs mentioned.

So, I've never bought DLC for a main console (heck, I've only bought it a few times for my 3DS) - any kind of price range we can probably expect the individual DLC packs to run for, and the Season Pass (which is something that gets you all the DLC in one go, price-wise, right?) exactly?

I don't see what's wrong with that, even though I doubt it will go that far.

Are you insinuating that is a bad thing? Because Burst Limit is hands down the best looking Dragon Ball game ever.

I agree with this so much! I was a little aggravated when I seen that it's going to have DLC. I'd rather it come out at a later time then right in the beginning of its release. makes me feel like the developers or who ever is in charge of that said ''Aight guys...I know ya'll just dropped 60 on this game! thanks! but here's some crap we could have put into the game but decided not too so you'll have to spend more of your money. enjoy!'' I definitely can't afford to get this right off the bat so I'm either out of luck or they are. :P I have to get a year card for xbox and this game so I wished they would have just waited a couple months and said ''Here's more awesome stuff for you!''

Sigh.... Not getting this game new now.

What's the point in buying games on launch now? 99% of them are incomplete. :thumbdown:

That's what I'm wondering. He's whipping the Nyoibo around in that and another screenshot.
Also, I'm assuming this is for one of the DLC packs. The buildings and the environment look VERY unfinished. So perhaps this DLC stuff is not just scrapped stuff in order to make a quick buck, but actually continually developed past the release.

I'll buy the season pass... fuck it. I bought the expansion for Destiny, which actually made me enjoy the game that much more enjoyable. I'm certain Xenoverse won't disappoint with this pass.

I just seen that this DLC pack will be released in March. so that's not too bad. If it's about 4 or 5 bucks I wouldn't mind paying for it. but if they think they're going to pull a fast one on me and try to sell it for 15 or 20 bucks they got another thing coming. lol I won't say I won't get this game now because of dlc...almost every game that gets released has some sort of dlc. but I guess we'll see what happens. oh btw...I got some ideas for outfits for my online character and I ain't telling you guys! ha ha :P :lol:

Speaking of ssj4 Vegeta, it looks like he will be teaching you the Final Shine Attack.

Dude, the main focus of Xenoverse is the Z portion of the story with a little bit of GT on the side. GT it self is a side story, so why can't be released as DLC? Hell, this will actually increase the shelf life of the game and its not like it wasn't stated that DLC wasn't going to be in the game.

Just calling it how I see it. But on the subject while Burst Limit is pretty I feel that Raging Blast 1 does it best when it comes to having graphics that resemble the show. Just my opinion though. Xenoverse's graphics are amazing as well.
