Gamin' NEWS! Robin in Batman game, SF vs. Tekken trailers

Here's a couple of gaming-related news.

First up concerning this guy:


That's right!
Tim Drake!Robin is coming up to Batman: Arkham City!
With his own gameplay, not a simple skin. He'll offer a bit of variety, with his shorter range, trademark staff, etc..

But what looked like a good news...turned out a deceiving one.
Not everyone will be able to play as Robin. Tim Drake will be available to North American fans who pre-order the game from Best Buy on any of the platforms it's available on.

Such a dumb move...
Making Robin available for such a small market (I mean, even Canada won't have him, just the US from the looks of it...?!) What about us, European fans??

Here's the official ad:


Which also confirms Black Mask by the way.
And a playable Red Robin costume!
There will also be two additional maps included with the pack, Black Mask Hideout and Freight Train Escape.


Good news...bad news...
Though I'm pretty sure all this will be available as DLC later on, like the Challenges pack for the first game.
But I'm also against this... I mean, enough micro-transactions! I will never understand this gaming generation and their love for paying DLC content... Perhaps kids these days have too much money, so much they need to pay to unlock stuff on games. I dunno... we used to unlock  these by playing the games actually back then...

Anyway, I'd gladly have this part of a collector edition instead.


And now here's some Street Fighter X Tekken trailers!

One for the SF crew:



And one for the Tekken guys:



Looking nice!
(though I'm more anticipating the Namco variant)
