What a scam!!!! They are releasing the pre-order bonus to everyone a week after the game comes out!!!! WTF BAMCO!!!! This is complete BS. I'm all for everyone being able to play all parts of the game but one week!!!! Are you telling me that there are no other DLC they could've released first so the people that pre-ordered it feel they got a little bit of a bonus. What faith I was starting to get back in BAMCO is now going by the wayside.

Yes. It is so terrible that people who downloaded the game from PSN (and therefore couldn't pre-order) should get the DLC in a decent amount of time. I AM SO ENRAGED!!!!
Buck-up. If you wanted to play the game, then having EXCLUSIVE dlc shouldn't matter. The bonus is that you got the DLC for free.

I don't think we have to pay for the DLC either. Has anyone checked to see if it is downloadable yet? I know the PSN doesn't update until tonight.

I'm not saying you shouldn't get it, but there has to be other DLC they could've released first. It's not a bonus when in fact you can't play the DLC till your difficulty 10 anyways. So my drive to gamespot to pre-order it basically did nothing. I can't believe you see nothing wrong with the fact that they are releasing it 1 week after the game comes out. Don't call it a Bonus then. Argue all you want, you know its bad business.

I agree that it is bad business and I think you have a point. But, I think exclusive DLC is pointless. I think the company should show appreciation to all the people that bought their game. I really hate Pokemon exclusives like Toys R Us and Gamestop. I am lucky to have both those stores within traveling distance, but what about people that can't go? It isn't fair. The Gamestop exclusive DLC really bothered me because I have a PSPGo (hold the jokes please because I really love the little thing) and I had no other choice than to buy it through the PSN. I do understand what you are saying. It was deceptive advertising and you have a right to be angry. If you could have done the bonus missions before finishing the game then that would be something, but these are high level missions that no one but the very hardcore will be able to do for awhile yet. I think you are right to be pissed.

I personally think it's great business. They got you to buy from them didn't they? Win.

...D: It was too good to be true... I tought it would be Free DLC since here in Mexico we never got a chance to try it since Gamestop is lame here... oh well... what a shame
Mar 22, 2011 10:14 am GMT
yeah that's totally lame. people who like to download games or have a new PSP where they can ONLY download games can't preorder and should miss out on excluseve content. Especially cool end game content that you cant find in the normal game.
Its smart to punish gamers who buy the download versions, its not like it saves the game companies shipping and printing costs.

I think it's unfair as well...
First of all, the fact that there is Bonus DLC doean't means every friggin Gamestop in America is gonna grant it.... here in México they had no idea about it, as well as we never get event Pokémon given at Gamestop...
Than, there's no way to pre-order for the owners of a PSP Go, and now, they expect us to BUY something that was FREE in Japan?
I think that the pre-order bonus should have been something like figurines, a special PSP case, a God Arc Keychain... and other stuff... like the Monster Heads for MH3 or the Ho-Oh and Lugia Figures for Pokémon HG/SS... This is a short game with a short (...sorta) variety of monsters to fight, and if they're gonna keep adding, they'd bettert make it open to public in general, it just makes me see Sony's greed and stupidity with it's PSN gimmick... specially feel bad for the owners of PSP GO :/

Short? you sure you're playing the same game there? it was over 60 hours for me that's an extremely long game by today's standards.
Mar 22, 2011 7:52 pm GMT
^I have 40 hours and I'm fighting Hannibal NAO! <_<
And yeah I've been grinding for the Arda Nova Weapons, Congou Frz Cannon and Dayus Pita Shield

I laughed. Too bad D3 is the one in charge of English GEB. Japan gets DLC for free, blame D3 for not throwing in other pre-order goodies; not like it cost D3 much to translate DLC and call that a bonus.
Mar 23, 2011 3:22 am GMT
Well, just checked PSN and no DLC was there, so not this week at least. Hopefully D3 releases other DLC first, so I don't feel like I wasted my time pre-ordering it for the bonus.

Well you must be used to these games more than me but i beat 72 missions and 62:25 as my play not counting the seconds, if you're good at a game genre or type to the point it's too easy for you then try another but i doubt another RTS like lord of arcana would be any longer.
Mar 23, 2011 4:23 am GMT
so what dlc IS available and how do we(non-japanese) get it?
Mar 23, 2011 11:56 am GMT
I wasn't expecting there to be any pre-order bonuses for this anyway. I pre-ordered and I got the DLC but it doesn't bother me any if more people get it.

Guess im the only one who plays with friends who dont have the DLC so they cant do my missions for Caligula and Venus....
