Having pre-ordered from Amazon I definitely feel screwed over with the DLC. Part IV of the manga is just okay to me so missing out on Kira isn't that big of a deal, but I cannot stand Shigekiyo. I have no idea why they picked such an idiotic character to offer as a pre-order incentive.

I ordered from Amazon, and didn't even realize they had a pre-order incentive at all! Having the TV series streaming on Crunchyroll right now really has me pumped for the game to come out.

I'm a bit disappointed as well with the choice of DLC for Amazon purchases. Shigekiyo isn't the best fighting character in the whole series and is kind of a jerk when first introduced. I would of been a bit happier if they offered Old Joesph or BAOH.

I would of been a bit happier if they offered Old Joesph or BAOH. AFAIK they're just following the original DLC release schedule. A code for Kira was packed in the japanese release, and IIRC Shigekiyo was free for a brief time afterward. I'm totally looking forward to Old Joseph (Hory Shyiiiit) and Ikuro/Baoh, though. Ok, question for Sac: Have you played as Koichi Hirose yet (the little kid)? If so, does he still have an attack called "S.H.I.T."?

I haven't unlocked him yet (I just started reading the part IV manga online, I wanted to read a little further in before I played the story mode. I do know the character you're talking about. I was actually at a part in the manga where he was kidnapped by a girl with stand hair powers) I think I'm familar enough with at least the protagonists of part IV that I'll work on part IV enough to unlock him and let you know. EDIT: Yes he does, its actually called S-H-I-T in the command menu. I've not read far enough into the manga to understand the reference (Mind you the manga I'm reading is extremely poorly translated)

I've not read far enough into the manga to understand the reference (Mind you the manga I'm reading is extremely poorly translated) Long story short, that stand (Echoes Act 3 - or in this case Reverb Act 3) has a potty mouth. Spelling out "Shit" is about the nicest of the various English swear words/phrases he says . I played about an hour last night, I got my copy "early" because I bought from Bandai Namco's website. I'm paranoid I won't get my Kira DLC though, because I didn't get a code and it wasn't listed on my invoice, and a friend of mine said his invoice had the DLC listed. Anyway I will see. Anyway I practiced playing as Josuke (Part 4) and played to the point where I unlocked Koichi so I could have Echoes say "S H I T." One thing I love is how they'll scream out something relatively understandable in Engrish and then the subs read something totally different because of the censorship.

Looks like the official site (www.fight-with-style.com) has posted dates for DLC release, via the character pages. According to text on the main page in game, looks like 14/05 (when the 1st few characters are released) is also when campaign pack 2 is released: old Joseph: 14/05/2014 LisaLisa: 14/05/2014 Baoh: 14/05/2014 Pannacotta Fugo: 21/05/2014 Narc Anastasia: 21/05/2014 Cool Ice: 21/05/2014 Iggy: 28/05/2014 Shigekiyo Yangu: None yet Yoshikage Kira: none yet I'm totally gonna get LisaLisa and old Joesph, maybe Iggy and Boah(not a jojo character, but looks interesting), but not sure about the rest. Oh and I was pleased to discover last week that CrunchyRoll isn't geoblocking me from watching the JoJo anime (Even tho they DID geoblock me from Attack on Titan). So I'm pretty happy about that, and it was a good refresher on Phantom Blood so far (Such as explaining Jonathan's "Sword of Luck and Pluck" attack. I remembered reading that when I saw that ep the other day ("Oh yea! That's why Jonathan has a sword! I'd thought it was weird for a Hamon user...") I've watched 2 episodes of Stardust crusaders, but decided to finish the rest of the series before I do (I figured a few more eps of Stardust should be out by the time I catch up) EDIT: Oh yes and I found it amusing to actually find out what "Muda" means when the subs for the anime translated it as "useless" when I could clearly hear the sub actor shouting "Muda". I thought that was kinda neat. Oh but I do find it annoying that Speedwagon seems to be calling Jonathan "Joestar San" (IE: "Mr Joestar", I'm pretty would would be the equivalent) but the subs still say his 1st name instead
