I'm SO getting this for my PS3!! Tournament next to Guilty Gear perhaps? XD

AHHH I can't wait for this game to come out! I'm really looking forward to it!!!

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #2 on:** May 11, 2009, 09:34:31 am »

Mmm, I've been waiting for Blazblue since they announced it in Japan. I'm really excited for this, my boyfriend and I are thinking about splitting for an xbox360 just for this game.

Wow, you don't already have one? I mean, I do realize that many fans of Japanese-style games would prefer the PS3 over the Xbox 360, and being a Japanese gamer, I probably should, but I actually love my Xbox and it's not just for first-person-shooters and the like, haha.

I suppose what I'm trying to say is, Xbox ftw! lol

Really though, I need to manage my spending so I'll have enough to buy it when it comes out, ack. I'm pleasantly surprised that the limited edition is going to be the same price as the game alone!

@Jimi- I'm actually still completely content with my PS2 so I didn't really find the need to get newgen console until I heard about Blazblue. (Though I have a wii back at home, it was given to my sister and I as a Christmas present and I didn't feel like I needed it in Portland) Anyways Xbox has more games that appeal to my boyfriend and I (Dead Rising, Bioshock, Fallout) which is why we chose that. Plus I'm still pissed at sony for not having ports for controllers making it so I can't plug my DDR pad into a PS3, grrrrrr...

Ah, I didn't mean to say just PS3, I'm sorry it came out like that lol. I'm very happy with my PS2 as well (really excited for Devil Summoner 2 which comes out for PS2 tomorrow!!!) and I don't even own a PS3. (Well, I HAD a PS3, but that's a different story.) Dead Rising, Bioshock and Fallout are AMAZING games and I'm sure Blazblue will be great as well!

While I'm trying to resist the urge to compare Blazblue characters to Guilty Gear ones, anyone have a favorite character yet? From the character images I'm really liking Ragna and Jin (*cough* Sol and Ky *cough*), but I'm also interested in the mysterious Haku=Men.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #6 on:** May 11, 2009, 01:00:42 pm »

@Jimi- Oh! I didn't mean to sound like a jerk about it either. I took no offense to what you had said, sorry!

Haha, most of the characters take on a fighting style of someone from Guilty Gear so it's really hard not to compare. I love Noel though, it's female Bridget with guns! How could you not like her? I really want to try and cosplay as her someday but I have two other GG cosplays I want to make as well as completely redo my Bridget...

Also Tokakaka is awesome as well~

HellSap · « **Reply #7 on:** May 11, 2009, 02:55:40 pm »

HAKU-MEN IS AWESOME.
I'm probably going to convert my faust scalpel into something resembling his sword. Then all I'll need is a sweet breastplate with eyes and some other crazy junk like helmet that has hair coming out and such. It'll be sweet.

dshwshr55 · « **Reply #8 on:** May 11, 2009, 03:19:12 pm »

My wife has already started her outfit for Taokaka ^^
I decided to get the PS3 version because if it's online, I'd guess that there would be more people playing it on the PS3. I have far more games for my Xbox360 also, mostly RPGs.
I might try getting good with Iron Tager, just because it's not my usual style ^^

Actually, I'm willing to bet there will be more 360's with BlazBlue and PS3's.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #11 on:** May 27, 2009, 03:00:22 pm »

So I went out and bought a 360 for when Blazblue comes out.

The game is nothing like Guilty Gear. I just played it at the local arcade and I thought almost the same thing, but I talked to one of the better players and he explained to me the changes while we were playing. Anybody who really plays Guilty Gear will find a refreshing change hopefully.

I purchased the game and have played it quite a bit. It still is very similar to Guilty Gear in a lot of areas, however, I do find this as a refreshing change as you said. There are still enough things that are new about the game that keep me drawn to it.

Currently rocking Bang! XBL Gamertag is Yatta Dante. Add me so we can battle!

iluvshijimi · « **Reply #18 on:** July 02, 2009, 06:27:16 pm »

Okay, so I just bought it and brought it home and got to play it for about an hour... I'm really impressed with the character design and soundtrack, two things I really pay attention to when purchasing games, but the one thing that's been bothering me is the weird, disjoined feeling I get from the story mode @_@ Like, does anyone else know why Jin has like, split personalities and calls Ragna "Brother"? o.o

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #19 on:** July 02, 2009, 08:45:06 pm »

Somethings going on between the two of them. I've only played halfway through Noels story so far and they're all connected. I like the story mode though. It seems you can't finish ones story completely until you get clues from the others stories. Also Noel is <3 forever~

iluvshijimi · « **Reply #20 on:** July 02, 2009, 11:30:13 pm »

So I played with each character to at least one good ending (if I got a Game Over, I'd just reload and try a different path). I agree that you need clues from other characters to complete any one character's storyline. I've completely cleared Jin's and 90% through Ragna's, and not any clearer on Jin's personality problem xD Hopefully clearing more of Noel's will help me out.

I AM REALLY GOOD WITH JIN xDDD

AND ARAKUNE YAY <333

Man of the Public · « **Reply #21 on:** July 03, 2009, 04:57:11 pm »

After watching videos of Bang on youtube, I must get this game.
He is everything I love rolled into on character. Kamen Rider, Ninjas, Getter Robo and general kick assery.

ALso Tager is looking good too.

iluvshijimi · « **Reply #22 on:** July 03, 2009, 07:32:31 pm »

Woop, just cleared the true ending in story mode, gonna work on arcade mode soon to unlock all the pixxx :3

ha~ma · « **Reply #25 on:** July 27, 2009, 12:46:27 am »

played this game tonight. Taokaka has some silly priority and can do some dumb stuff like chain 8 2a's together. Her 41236 clampy thingy is amusing, and her super is really, really good. That Super -> taunt cancel -> super looks really really good. I have to say that this game isn't really my cup of tea, but it was fun.

dshwshr55 · « **Reply #26 on:** July 27, 2009, 02:19:11 am »

Taokaka's my main ^^ FINALLY managed to pull off my 100+ hit combo (6920) with her in Arcade (lowest difficulty, but just trying during the real thing). No, it's not an infinite loop either. I like how the damage gets lower and lower the more it's strung out to keep from cheap wins.
To bad the online mode sucks T_T It's like everyone else is playing on dial-up or something.

100 hits? Are you sure that's valid and not techable? Props if it isn't techable haha. And yeah, most fighters have damage scaling.

So far I havent had any trouble with the online, the vast majority of my matches have been really smooth, even when playing users from other regions.
Are you playing this on PSN or Xboxlive? (Im using XboxLive)

Nope, you're right, I don't understand it. Congratulations. I was just trying to share a comic, Koban. Thought it was funny and people who like the game might enjoy it.

Well, there are two points in it where there's like a couple frames to instant block, and if you're quick, you can cancel out of the air throw. Other than that, I've put the dummy on every type of block, so it might be hard for a mere human to get out of it. I'll make a video and post it.
