At least they are fixing problems. And honestly, no one but the most dedicated of community nerds can find ALL the problems through regular beta testing.
I don't expect them to release a flawless game, especially considering NRS's distinct lack of talent, but come on dude. There is absolutely zero excuse for the condition the game was in when it launched.

Hell; even if it launched as it is TODAY it would still be sub-par.

The only worse recent example I can think of is MvC3.

Look at Virtua Fighter, Dead or Alive, Guilty Gear, or BlazBlue. None of those games needed any major bug fixes at all.

I imagine that if NRS was in charge of when the game got released instead of Warner Brothers, they would have tinkered with it longer to clean it up. You do the best you can with the time you're given.

Since when has a Mortal Kombat game been considered equal with top-tier fighters like those you listed? Mortal Kombat is the Call of Duty of fighters; appealing to the lowest common denominator.

Mortal Kombat is more like the Medal of Honor in fighters considering Call of Duty has generally been a really popular and successful series with lots of good games.

Medal of Honor has been garbage for quite a while.

Mortal Kombat may have never been considered tournament level, but Mortal Kombat II and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 are legitimately well liked in the fighting game community.

Regardless; releasing a glitchy game is bullshit.

Skarlet, Kenshi, Rain, and another unnamed character were confirmed "as part of the first round" of DLC today.

Assuming they're 5 dollars each, that's already 20 dollars worth of DLC characters.

Do these companies not see how this practice makes their games an absolute joke from a competitive perspective?

I don't recognize any of the those characters aside from Rain. (And wasn't he a pallet swap anyway?) The question isn't why would they release them...but "What nimrod would buy them?"

Kenshi was only in the 3D games and Scarlet was a glitch in the 2D ones that made the female ninjas red so they said fuck it and made a character out of her. Rain was a minor henchman in Ultimate 3 and had a few cool moves to his credit. I'm figuring the other unnamed character being released would be robot smoke since him and Rain were the only ones not put in the retail game that were in UMK3.

DLC info was released. $5 per character (the three known, plus one secret) and a special "bonus" discount for 360 players who buy all four up front (so instead of $20, its $15). The deal isn't offered on PS3 (that version sold more, so I guess they don't need to give a discount as incentive) and confirms Jason's suspicions about DLC.

I'm probably going to trade it in when I buy Deus Ex, or sooner if I get something sooner. After I finished the story, I had little incentive to go on.

And don't forget, at least one of the characters is on the disc (granted, she isn't complete, but she's on there).

Who would pay $5 per character? Seems like too much money for something the average player might not even use very often.
