Pirates Leak Street Fighter X Tekken For Xbox 360 Due To DLC Fiasco

Gaming Blend "After news broke about the on-disc DLC characters Capcom planned to sell back to gamers after Street Fighter X Tekken released, a group of pirates decided to leak the entire Xbox 360 version of the game onto torrent sites. Ouch."

Pirates would of leak regardless of the DLC fiasco.

[TheColbertinator]

True but it looks like Capcom forced their hand to fold faster.

[suicidalblues]

Seriously, Capcom forced them to do it? I'm not happy about the dlc on the disk crap, but that hardly merits me stealing it.

[blumatt]

It should be ILLEGAL to put something on the disc, and not allow you access to it without paying more money. That's ridiculous!!

Though, pirating is not the answer either. Two wrongs don't make a right, people.

pirates pretending they are doing something moral

Capcom is ripping off

Pirates steal

Both are bad

[solidboss]

while i agree that both the pirates and capcom are bad this type of thing is bound to happen and i bet you it will become more frequent with releases. if companies such as capcom continue to milk and take advantage of the "dlc model" i see more and more people pirating the game as a means of getting back at the company. it may or may not hurt sales but it will def. send a message to the company about how their business practices effects their consumers

[smashcrashbash]

That is the attitude of people these days.If someone does something wrong they do more wrong things and that automatically makes it right. Then to ease their conscious they shout about justice and rights and claim they deserve everything.' I may have erased a hundred million important files, ruined a company and people's lives but they shouldn't have raised the price of the product by $5.00.' So that makes it okay

[badz149]

since when did pirates even need a reason to pirate?? FAIL!

[xPhearR3dx]

My local my and pop store has had this game in since last week. I wouldn't be surprised if it was leaked then, and just now being reported due to the whole DLC thing.

[dazzrazz]

Don't worry Capcom is gonna re-release title in Arcade, Super and the Ultimate edition in following months :P

[TeaDouble_E]

How will that help capcom? Newer titles will be pirated each time they release a different version.

[BoNeSaW23]

Who said anything about helping Capcom?

[Krakn3Dfx]

"This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you."

Cole on XBOX 360 plz

[Megaman_nerd]

he's probably in the disc but not playable. lol

[killerhog]

Capcom needs to change their direction quickly as their handling of dlc and editions is averting people/customers. I do not see the sales of this game being good as most will probably wait for a complete edition or not buy it at all (like my bro). Capcom needs to allay these skeptisms and uneasiness people have towards them because it is not helping their company. It might also hurt namco's iteration of this cross versus game or help it.

[deadfrag]

Its on torrents for 5 days now!This article seems made by a ten years old kid.

[Fadetoblack69]

DLC = Ripoff
Pirates = Ripoff

Just say no, laugh and walk away and it doesn't affect you either way.

[Moncole]

Since I am a pirate, that makes me a rip off? I dont want to buy a badly ported game , an expensive games with no replay value or a game with DRM

I give my money to devs who support there games and care about PC gamers like Valve, they give free DLC so I will buy there game but I won't buy Assassins Creed because there is DRM and Ubisoft doesn't care about PC gamers

[Fadetoblack69]

And I agree with not buying this crap. Unfortunately the 'standard' generic gamer will buy up any shiny thing thrown their way which is why these corporations have become so ripoff happy.

But that doesn't give you any right to download it either, no.

[hkgamer]

I think this article was more of a joke than anything else...
Doesn't all x360 games get pirated? I'm pretty sure alot of those games get leaked on torrents before release dates as well, so what is different now?

The article also points out that there is no PS3 version pirated, that is mainly because there are less pirated/hacked/chipped PS3's around.

[SheenuTheLegend]

you cant play it even on hacked ps3

[xVeZx]

two wrongs dont make a right...

but like other people said the pirates would have released it regardless...

[JoeSchmoh]

They hacked this disc because Capcom is known to have done the same thing with Ultimate MvC3. So they hacked the FK out of this new Capcom fighter to see if they did it again and guess what!? THEY DID! They're gonna learn HAAAAAARD from this when Darkstalkers 4 comes out. They're gonna be like "All the characters are here! Please believe us this time!"

[ScytheX3]

lol no they wont, they should but wont, capcom doesnt need to because for every 1 person boycotting a game, theres 100 thatll still buy it, and though 1 and 1 will add up, it amounts to nothing in the big picture, capcom couldnt care less if they tried.

[cheetorb]

Regardless of pirating, when will these money-hungry, greedy corporations realize they are not fooling anyone. YOU ARE NOT AS SMART AS YOU THINK. Your just shooting yourself in the foot by f*cking over the people that support you. Good luck Capcom and similar models.

[rjgbyrne]

I would prefer to support proper gaming development and Capcom don't deserve that privalige for the DLC on disc stuff. As bad as pirating the game before release is, my decision not to buy it is purely done to gouging and double dipping. Capcom is not the victim here but the bully, pirates will always be around and it will hurt their bottom line in the end but there s only so far as loyal gamer will or can go to support this seriously damaging action... I hope Capcom goes bust for their decision with DLC, RIP all those great games produced for the fans years ago, they will be replaced by developers who come out of the recession ashes and work for and with the next generation gamers. Adios Namco for allowing your franchises to be exploited too. DLC should be free, it should be used to amass new sales of a product past its release date and that is that! Gouging, FU Capcom & Namco!

i will go and say this: thanks to ppl like me, who love sf and iwll love sf x tekken, i dont care if capcom milks me..hell, put 50 toons on DLC ill buy them all day 1. I love fighting games so much and sfiv started an obsession to be the very best at this game. Over 4k hours and sitll trying to master it. Capcom and valve are the only people i will let them milk me on day 0 dlc, i dont care. I rather pay for this that has infinite replay value than me3 and biowares 600 mb 10 dollar dlc and deal with origin, plus, capcom pc ports are phenomenal.

[vortis]

Dude, if you aren't trolling you will be bubble downed so badly.

I understand being a fanboy (I used to be one for Acclaim games, anyone remember them?) but you need to set your principles straight man.

Letting a company milk you of DLC and on-disc content doesn't benefit anyone. It means they can continue to release half-shoddy games at full retail prices with on-disc premium content. How does that help the gaming industry grow other than execs getting their pockets lined? It doesn't increase the gameplay depth, the creative structure of the game nor the originality or fun-factors.

I miss the old days where $54.99 bought you 10 years worth of a replayable product, and the only time you stopped playing it was because of the green stuff in the cartridge or the scratch marks on the disc.

EDIT: Also, someone brought up a good point about if XBLA or PSN ever went down how would you access on-disc DLC on a new system?

[beastlysensation]

oops..double post..
