Hey no fair, I'm the one who called dibs on being the weird Latin American contributor.

I'm getting a real "I'm not a gamer but I'd like to pretend I am" vibe from that page. I don't know why exactly, but I just feel kind of awkward when reading it. |

The question is, then, whether it will be impossible to enjoy these games in the future at all without the downloadable content. Will Ninja Gaiden and Samba De Amigo be unplayable because you no longe ... |
