Are they going to include the Brood entrance? Would make playing with Attitude Era E&C even more fun.

Not sure if the Brood entrance is in, Gangrel's solo entrance is in correctly though.

Really? A Move pack as DLC? Does this mean the moves are on the disc but locked?

Wasn't planning on buying this, but I may have to now
