Since GMG gets talked about a lot in this thread (and because that survey was linked earlier), just a heads up to everyone: They changed the expiration date of the voucher, it now ends December 14th, which really blows. It's also now just posted on this page.
Here's the information about the DLC Characters:
[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_Fighter_X_Tekken#Characters[/url] said:
The Character Pack costs 1600 mspoints ($20 bucks) on the 360.
So I guess just buy the game, ignore the Alternate Costume pack, ignore the Gems Pack and buy the extra characters next year when they'll be on sale again.
It's GMG... they'll have a new voucher started on the 15th
Yea, but this one is 35%, and I know I was planning to hold onto it until something I wanted went on sale. May just throw it at Lego LOTR or the dishonored DLC (under the assumption I'll love Dishonored~)
Thanks for the info. Capcom, you suck at DLC.

75% off for SFxT is kind of crazy considering Capcom.
Why the hell am I tempted to get it on PC when I already got rid of my Xbox copy?

I was bored, so I just downloaded and finished Brainpipe: A Plunge to Unhumanity. Some of you might own it thanks to a Indie Royale bundle or a Indie Game Stand deal!
It's a somewhat trippy first person game where you seem to control an eye as you try to collect various glyphs while you evade rays, energy balls and walls inside inside a long tube that may or may not be some kind of representation of your brain. Honestly, I just understood that your goal is to trascend humanity achieving the last glyph and then you can choose what kind of alien you want to become :lol
The controls are great - you can use your mouse or a joystick to move around, but you can also click anytime to activate slowmo mode to recover health and to prepare for the next batch of obstacles. It only has ten levels (and they're unlocked since the beginning), but difficulty and speed progress nicely and there's also a bonus, endless level after the last one where you just try to survive to get the highest score.
However, since it doesn't have achievements nor global high score rankings, there isn't much to do after beating every stage (I just needed 35 minutes) besides beating your own scores, and "becoming an alien" just lets you choose a photo for your high score. I'd love an Android release, although I don't think they'd be able to make controls as good as this version's.
If you got it in an Indie Royale bundle and want to strike one game from your backlog, this one is very short and sweet! I wanted to check how much does it cost on Steam, but the store page has vanished so probably it won't be available anymore

The game looks innocuous but it's a trip. A favorite of mine to be left installed forever. Highly recommended when you just want to chill and take a trip to nowhere. There's no option for 1080P but you can set it through the command line.

Also, you should probably get it RIGHT NOW before Capcom is like "Oops, we meant 25% off, fixed."
Well fuck... didn't want the game, still bought it, thanks Steam.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Don't fail this test, guys. If you don't buy it at 75% off, they won't ever put that discount on another game!
They have done that in the past.

To Capcom we are like Pavlov's dogs, but without the expected results.
Buy on greenmangaming with 25% off coupon

Are those things really even worth 3.75$ (the 25% off price)? I mean custom skins for heads?

You just don't understand the fine art of head skinning.

I don't understand why someone would pay for additonal heads that you never see outside of the customization menu since the whole game is first-person. If anything, your friends should buy it for you so they can look at something different in co-op.
Well shit. Any good? Never really got into Tekken. Any reason to play this instead of SSFIVAE and 3rd Strike?
And what's this about DLC characters?

Uh oh, looks like I have to buy. Damn you for never going on sale, Capcom games.
In my opinion? Hell no.

When the game originally came out last year I remember people complaining that the game was too preachy about global warming, but then a lot of people also said it wasn't a big deal and thought the game was great.

A friend told me that SFxTekken was the best fighting game he ever played. The tremendous depth to the gem system blew away everything from SF4AE.
This is serious business because I think he has a Dudley tattoo.

It depends on your fight stick and motherboard. Plug it in and check to see if your computer recognizes it (Control Panel > Game Controllers). Click on Properties and press some buttons.
I had to buy a VIA (important) PCI usb card (5-10 bucks) for my PS3 stick. (Old Mad Catz SE)
You're friends with someone who has a Dudley tattoo? Judgement has been passed.
The auto block one is really strong if they didn't patch it.
Trust Capcom to bugger up, in a way, the DLC for the Street Fighter games. The DLC packs don't actually contain the individual subs for the included DLC, so it's entirely possible to purchase the packs and then the individual pieces of DLC... which is something I would have done were the latter on sale, too.

There's 48$ of additional costume DLC for Street Fighter Vs Tekken. What in the actual fuck.

75% off on a Capcom game AND THE DLC?
There are 2 options here.
A) It's a pricing error and the base game is supposed to be 25% off and the DLC not on sale at all.
or
B) Capcom knows the world is ending in 10 days and they're trying to build up some good karma.

Buying the DLC since I already own the base game. (went in on 4 pack)

My PS3 HRAP3 (USB) is plug and play and works fine with SF4AE. Not sure about SFVT but I don't imagine it would be that different.
As long as everyone on your friends list can see you buying lots of things it's not a total loss.

They need to discount Dead Rising 2, no way am I going to bite at £19.99. 75% off that this coming sale would be most welcome, Capcom.

At this point it's white noise you scroll past.

Knowing this is on sale for 75% and will NEVER EVER be on sale again, I'm almost convinced I need to buy it.
Looks like Capcom wins. Their sale tactics are working.

Was hoping for something I'd want to buy on my birthday
You'd have a serious problem if you didn't want to buy the game just because it's on sale.
