Getting a bit tired of people dissing anything new and fighting game related just because it's the "cool" thing to do. Seems like people are afraid that they're not hardcore enough if they enjoy playing a solid mainstream fighter. Don't get me wrong, I love SFIII too and I'll definitely be buying the online edition as soon as it comes out, but I'm not obsessed with it enough so that anything else doesn't matter.

Are you fucking serious?
People are getting annoyed because they payed for a full title (regardless of price) then Capcom expects us to keep buying more crap just to use features that should have been included in the game from the start. It wouldn't be such a problem if it was a cheap 5 dollar DLC.
That's why people are annoyed. People aren't hating on the game, people are hating on the bullshit company that made it.
Still, there are only 2 or 3 posts on this entire thread about Capcoms bullshit. How is that everybody?
If we follow the same logic of the "omg Capcom sucks because they keep releasing updates" haters, then it's definitely a dick move to keep releasing these old arcade ports. But of course, it's not cool to rip on that, so I guess I shouldn't.
Again, its not because they're updating the game. Its because they're charging an arm and a leg for it. They're making it so you have to buy the new version of the game to use features that you should have gotten in the first place.
I don't know anybody that really likes them re-releasing the old arcade ports either. I think the only reason people want a new version of III is for online play and possibly HD graphics. If you're content without it, by all means buy another version for cheap. People are only upset because they just payed for a new game, then a month later, Capcom tells them that they aren't allowed to play their game online anymore and to buy the update.
You can cry budget game all you want, that doesn't change the fact that it's a bullshit business practice.
