Johnny Gat Will be in Divekick: Addition Edition Plus

I think he's the most identifiable character from the series; considering the player character is different for most everyone customization.

Does this mean I'll be able to divekick in Saint's Row 5?

THIS MAKES ME REALLY HAPPY.

I heard you might just need the latest version of RealPlayer.

Do i need to upgrade my Netscape for this or....????

As someone who only played SR3, I don't understand people's supposed (likely ironic) obsession with Johnny Gat.

Gat actually fits in kind of perfectly given how absurd all the other Dive Kick characters are.

I can't wait to see Divekick's junk.bin

Motherfucking Dave Lang. Slow clap, boy.

Sweet! :)

Johnny Gat is in the Lang Zone!

"Addition Edition" is fucking brilliant of a subtitle. I love it.

This is very silly.

damn it! I was completely happy ignoring dive kick as a weird psudo game that other people play but with Johnny Gat being added i kind of need to buy this now.

haha! Well played Dave.

oh shit, it's Gat!

I hope they got the original voice actor to reprise his role for this flash game.

Oh gee, maybe this'll get me another month and a half of online competition...no, seriously, I would happily pay for another month and a half of online with this game.

Divekick is the most fun I've ever had with an online game...

This was a move that definitely had to happen….

would you look at that

If I could get paid to do so, I would :)

Johnny Gat...he's so god like.

Okay, Dave Lang, you win.

Well, just because he wasn't available doesn't mean Gat had to die, y'dig? :p

Best part is when Gat uses his air special then headshots himself o_O

I had an interview at Volition a few weeks ago. God, I hope I get that job.

This continues to be the right kind of stupid

This is Jeff's doing!

I should be surprised by this but I'm not. It's like I knew in my heart that Johnny was destined to take over the games industry, one title at a time.

So Lang said this will be patched into the PS3, Vita & Steam versions around the time the game comes out for PS4 & XB1. Can't believe it's free. Volition was so cool to work with them on this.

this is a very appropriate way for them to sort of spoof franchise crossovers in fighting games

This only serves to make Dave Lang's ego grow larger.

This...actually isn't that surprising. Stupid shit inside of stupid shit for stupid reasons.

I love it. I need it.

Really? You're sure? Because I at least remember seeing a tweet from him saying how saddened he was that they killed Gat. But then, if what you say is true then of course he's going to say that.

Daniel Dae Kim wasn't available cause he had to shoot Hawaii Five-0. Really, that's it.

I'm kind of amazed that I have to be the one to say

STRAP IT ON

(I fully approve of this delicious brand synergy.)

I need to start playing Divekick again don't i?

I hope at some point he tears his mask off to reveal that he's wearing a mask of himself.

I would lean more towards them underusing Gat more so than Gat simply not being a fun character -- a bit one-note sure, but they could have done so much more with him I think. His loyalty mission was pretty poor in particular, especially against so many other inventive loyalty missions that existed within the game. Though of course his recruitment mission was probably my favourite, so they at least got that right! It was unfortunate how damn much they built up his rescue as well, only to just sorta have him hang out and occasionally talk tough. Even his short segment in SR3 made him seem more awesome than all of his stuff in SR4.

In SR2 he was on pretty equal footing with The Boss, only in SRIV where there's so many other supporting characters now, I guess they couldn't quite fit him in. They probably only brought him back in the first place due to fan-demand. Really would like to know what their motivation was for ''killing'' him in SR3 in the first place.

Count a sale. My kind of stupid.
