This might be the only time I root for hackers, so here it is....

Hell yeah! Stick it to the man!!!!

(Nothing against Capcom, I'm just glad someone fought back when it comes to on-disc-DLC)

you guys really want those characters THAT BAD?..i can understand if i get a lot of negative points for this comment but damn, it's not CAPCOM's fault that they are more greedy than other publishers..i'm gonna say it again, CAPCOM is just plain GREEDY and SMART for coming up with additional DLC ..THEY KNOW that people that LOVE the game will buy it..YES!! CAPCOM is F*** UP..but do you guys realize that the people who LOVE the game so much they are willing to pay for the extra characters EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T LIKE PAYING FOR IT...THOSE are the type of people that you should be blaming at..STOP BUYING IT!!! if you buy the DLC and go on comment section and complain, please go shoot yourself cause YOU are the reason why CAPCOM keeps getting away with s*** like this

ahahah hilarious up yours capcom for putting stuff on the disc and locking it and then charging for it when they obviously could of put it into the game free.

It's called "Downloadable Content" for a reason. The purpose is for it to be downloaded via the consoles respected online networks, not to be buried and hidden code already on the disk. So the programmers and developers want to save some time and already install on the disk, but we consumers are paying for whatever is on the disk and it becomes our property at the time of sale. We don't own the product wholly, but we pay for what's there and that includes this supposed DLC on pre installed on the disk. Scree you Capcom for trying to make us pay doubly for what we already purchased.

good for them we shouldn't have to pay extra for *** on disc :/

thats what you get shitcom. you money hungry assholes. this is why your company will soon be in the ***, because you care more about money than your fans.

There just going to unban themselves. The only thing that will punish them if is they get a full IP Ban requiring them to have to buy a new Xbox 360 to play online. Just regular banning there Gamertags won't effect them at all.

So capcom is basically selling an incomplete version of the game for $60 and wanting people to pay another $20 for the whole game. Then they'll release another version of the same game next year with exactly the same content and charge the same price. Thats the most aggravating business model I've ever seen, this game is certainly on my boycott list.

THE TRUTH of the matter is this. Capcom is saving money by doing this, by not having to deal with the process of posting the material online to Sony's marketplace and dealing with potential liabilities of hackers attacking Sony or just the costs that come with it. None of you, and I repeat, NONE of you seem to understand that creating an amazing game takes a lot more than some guys smoking pot and gaming all day long. These people at Capcom BUST THEIR ARSES to create a game that you all LOVE. Aside from Mortal Kombat, not much comes anywhere CLOSE to Street Fighter. It is why most of you come back to this game since it's heydey decades ago. There are plenty of COSTS that come with creating a product. These costs must be managed, plain and simple, and saving money in any fashion is helping ALL US CONSUMERS by allocating those funds to the service hours of Capcom's employees. The same people making A GREAT GAME that doesn't cost $.99 ON THE FREAKIN IPAD! All of YOU greedy punks just hear any MENTION of value and automatically think you are ENTITLED to it all. Let me shine a light for you all in life, NOT MUCH IS FREE! Your own person is the only thing monetarily yours for good. Now, no, you are NOT entitled to everything on that disc outright. Capcom most likely did it as a little bid also, because they are not ignorant to hackers in the modern world of gaming. It's a growing number, and many do it as a similar expression as buying a sweet new car or clothes (yes, very similar if you actually stop and think about it). Now, Capcom doesn't OWE us Blanka, Sakura, Guy, Cody, Elena, Dudley, Alisa, Bryan, Christie, Jack, Lars and Lei. They took their time to CREATE them for us. In a game that lacks Godmoding and is "fair" in terms of gameplay as well as excessively fun. They have that material locked away on a disc for a reason, with terms most likely stating their use. Now, if you hack the characters at your home or your friends home and have a blast, good for you. They are cool with that to a certain extent I guarantee it. If you can take the time and crack the code, enjoy, OFFLINE. Now when you take it online, that is something different. You aren't just affecting YOU, you're affecting the Capcom community. There's a big strike. Remember, these games aren't just wished out of thin air. They are the spawn of massive hard work and dedication from tens of hundreds of people. They all need to support a living. And honestly, maybe a couple of them are filthy rich but I doubt the lot are all millionaires. They aren't STEALING from us, guys. They are doing what they need to do to remain competitive and keep bringing the CONSUMERS what they want. If you don't like this strategy so much because it must affect your life so very much, something I HIGHLY doubt, then go ahead and don't buy it. YOu aren't a true Capcom fan. At the very end of the day, they give you these 12 characters for $20 and you COMPLAIN???? Jeez, that is like $1.75 per character. That is CHEAP compared to what other games charge you for a playable character online. Nah.. Capcom isn't the greedy one.. The Greedy ones are all of you out there who act like a pack of wolves in terms of money. Earn your cash, decide what is valuable to you. WE determine the market. If $20 is too expensive for 12 characters, don't buy it. That's simple. Still doesn't mean that what someone makes is immediately yours for the taking.

At least online passes kind of made sense, but the fact that you have to pay $20 for something that is burned onto the disc you paid full price for is just insane. I don't think these people were entirely in the wrong but it's not something that I would do.

Well don't put content on a disc and then plan to sell it to people later on after they have essentially bought it. I just feel this is the worst thing in the gaming industry these days. All it does is makes people feel like they are paying for something twice, which technically you are, and it gets developers in trouble. Mass Effect 3, anyone? It would just work out better if they did away with putting DLC into a game before release. I understand having to put placeholder assets on the disc before release in order to keep file sizes small when you offer the DLC for download but I have seen DLC data on game discs before the official DLC launch in which all assets were in place just waiting for someone to essentially pay $10 for an unlock. People should not have to pay for something you can unlock yourself by altering a few lines of code.

Maybe those stupid F***s at Capcom need to realise they've been exposed and give us the things on the disc and learn from this experience. Don't make things alredy on the disc DLC or else it will bite you back at your ass.

Well I just hope that this is a lesson to all developers thinking about DLC in the future. Do it properly or not at all.

I've never been a fan of on-disc-DLC. always felt like a very cheap way of getting more out of you for content that you already have purchased

Well done the hackers, and thanks for sticking it to 'em!

that's why i pirate crapcom games... how can you pay somthing for a sick company like this...

Good. I'm tired of this DLC ****,either let us unlock it the right way by beating the game or completing different challenges IN GAME or don't produce it @ all. I'm not paying for it when it's already on the disc & in the game itself. It's ridiculous & insulting to us gamers/fans.

I hope this is the start of finally getting our voices heard that we're tired of this kind of business practice.

Not really sure how embedding the DLC on a Disk or making it available via a download is any different and why it is getting everyone's panties in a bunch. You are basically talking about a method of delivery. You don't think much of the DLC is not already complete or near complete when a game releases? Of course much of it produced simultaneously, it is more cost effective to do it that way. No one likes paying for extra content...but that is the business model. If you think the original content was not worth the price then I suggest next time to opt not purchasing that developer/publisher's next project. Supporting these hackers just encourages them to keep messing with things until eventually it gets out of hand and innocent players suffer (hello PSN shutdown). I for one hope they enjoy their bans.

Bleh, look the hackers did wrong and deserve to be banned.  But Capcom did wrong by putting it on the disc.  While I won't be mad at Capcom and Microsoft for punishing these guys, I think Capcom were idiots for not realizing that people could and would find this.  Apparently they think we're just a bunch of idiots.  It's a lowball thing for them to do, unfortunately the only way I can punish them is not buy this game, which I was already planning on doing.  These companies are completely trying to fleece us with DLC, it's getting ridiculous.  DLC can be a great thing but EA, Bioware, Capcom, and too many others are just trying to turn it into a gold mine to fleece their customers.  It's not right and if they think we're going to lay down and accept it they've got another thing coming.

Capcom should unlock this content for everyone who owns this game.  It's not right to charge for it.  They got caught with their pants down on this and should just apologize, give it to their paying customers, and learn their lesson.  

wow id say they deserve it if their going to charge for a in game dlc it seems pretty messed up
