Free worthwhile DLC from Scamco? I'll believe it when I'm downloading it.

From the blog

I am happy to hear such a strong response to our plans for free downloadable content. We will actually be announcing more about our plans for this content tomorrow (dates, characters), so keep an eye out for it!

 

[RpgN]

The demo was so good...If I had some cash, I would get this, LBP and R2. Sadly it will be Valkyria Chronicles only for now.

 

[Issun23]

I'm like so anxious to play the game. Next week can't come soon enough. Are we going to have an official thread?

 

[Darkener2]

I don't know what is worse... that I'm buying a Naruto game (second XD) or I might buy two within two weeks of each other... :lol Of course if the Ubisoft's sequel for the 360 isn't as bad as last years...

 

[Snaku]

I'm choosing this and Mirror's Edge over R2, LBP, Valkyria Chronicles, Castlevania, and Dragon Ball DS.

Yeah, I'm that excited about this game (and ME of course).

I'm making it now.

 

[Ryuartyi]

I normally hate Naruto, but I think when I get the money I'll pick up this game as well.

WHAT DOES THIS LOOK SO GOOD?!

 

[Issun23]

Great. Snaku, if you need screens or the logo let me know.

I wonder if the DLC characters will be those hidden in the flash assets on the site.

A note on support characters. These won't just be for show, like an extra attack only. They can be used to buy you time to charge up the slower moves like Rasengan and Raikiri (these moves require you to charge up a bar before you unleash them making you easy target for your opponent). Also, their moves can be selected before the match so you can customize what they will be doing during the fight. For instance, you can make them prepare traps for your enemies and they actually push them into said traps.

 

[Snaku]

Great Snaku, if you need screens or the logo let me know.

Cool, PM me with what you got.

 

[Zoe]

Wait, wait. Next week? Shit! Gotta put in the pre-order :\

I'm surprised that there's no "Zabuza" on the list. (Well, at least I think that was his name.) I mean, he was the first official bad guy in the show.

I'd love this game to death though if they ever included the mailman as DLC.

Its pretty much sticking to the major characters and the teams. Haku and Zabuza will likely appear in story mode.
