!!!!!Blaze Blue!!!!

[fear1313]

WTF happened to it? The spirit sequel to one of the best fighting games in history (though highly unnoticed) has dissapeared off everyones radar. As one of the few here in the states that had the priveledge to play a tech demo of the game at Anime Con 2008, I can say that it WAS the most incredible fighting game I've ever experienced.

1. It was absolutely gorgious in full 1080p.

2. It had the same perfect pacing as the guilty gear series (maybe a little faster).

3. It was INTENSLY fun to play!

Now it seems this game has fallen off the face of the earth. Someone PLEASE tell me when and/or how I get to play this gem again.

P.S. I'm perfectly fine with some uhhhhhh.... unsavory acts if they are necessary...

Do you mean Blaz Blue?

IMO, Guilty Gear is better

[eVasivE]

game looks amazing. it's out in japanese arcades, I think. rumored to be coming to ps3 eventually, hopefully by the end of the year.

[Effay]

The game looks pretty interesting. It seems almost exactly like Guilty Gear (which isn't a bad thing).

If it comes out for PS3 I'm never going to get to play it though.

Its a very pretty game, been hacking away with Hakuman on the cabinet down here in Houston, but I think I heard it coming out for 360 and PS3 this summer.

I was wondering when you would show up, Chris. How have you been? My roommate from college is looking forward to this game, too. I think he has played it at Arcade Infinity.

Nothing really happened to it so to say. . It's still around in select arcades and yea its rumored to be coming to 360 and/or PS3. It just hasn't been as popular as the GG series because some say it doesn't require as much skill as GG. I dunno I enjoy it alot though and really hope it hits consoles in the future.

[dj.asakura]

I'd love to see it on a console release in the states (especially for the 360).

I'd probably actually buy a stick for this game since it's so similar to GG.

GG will always be better to me though. Not to sure about the easier thing though...I'd need to play it more before I come to that conclusion.

I guess people missed the confirmation on BlazBlue coming to X360 and PS3.

Headline has videos.

Lots of good info/vids here.

I was excited about this game when I first saw the trailers, but now I'm not too sure again. I'll probably convince my brother to get it, then check it out. If I like it then, I'll pick it up, lol.

not too sure???

this game looks sick

not too sure???

this game looks sick
If it's sick enough I'm going to play it over SFIV.

[dj.asakura]

Once this finally comes out, I know I'll end up buying it and a stick (finally).

I loved Guilty Gear and this looks amazing. I'm really excited.

I watched a bunch of videos today and it really does look like the perfect game to come after GG. But I can see where people think it may be "dumbed down" with this drive button. Hopefully it won't end up being too much of a problem.

I cannot wait :)

Baiken isn't in the game, now you can't steal my character! :evil:

I'm actually very much looking forward to BB because it borrows several system mechanics from 3D fighters (ground game, OTG, tech rolling, etc). One of the locals has a board and one of our arcades has the game, but I haven't really had the chance to properly check it out, and I've never been much into GG... at least at a competitive level.

[Funkpanda]

Bump cus it comes out next week. Should just make this the official thread.

[Sabbathkicksass]

been playing it a little recently. its pretty much just like guilty gear. i still need to get an arcade stick cause the 360 controller is terrible.

[Effay]

Man I'm so hype for this game. All of the characters seem so unique and interesting, I'll probably have trouble deciding a main.

Even before I knew the tier listings, Arakune looked quite interesting. I've recently taken a liking to zoning based gameplay in fighters, and he seems to fit perfectly (BEES).

I think this needs a new thread when it comes out for a more informative first post. Just got a 9.4 on ign. Will possibly bring in more casuals/population
