This game apparently is the spiritual successor of GG series, I've played a lot of the GG series in my local arcades. This should be interesting, guess another fighting game im gonna dive in.

These Astral Finishes doesn't remind me of the Destroyed moves in GG though, reminds me of Hoku no Ken (Fist of the North Star) instant kill moves, but less broken. You wanna see a broken game? Play Hoku no Ken

Its rather ok in the console version, I actually enjoyed it also but in the arcades, its too broken. All characters got infinite combos

Hmm, this is getting more interesting. I love GG series but theres something thats holding me back a bit. 11 usable chars only, and knowing Arksystems theres gonna be a hell lot more of expansions if the game gets more popular.

GG series was 1 good example. GGXX, GGXX:Reload, GGXX:Izuka, GGXX: Slash, GGXX:AC

Instead of having GGXXX, became expansion expansion expansion

Hmm enlighten me, what does the remote play feature for?

Copy the Blazblue into PSP?

Wow, Dio really made Carl look broken :haha:

Kadqn was a great Order-Sol player those days, his rush down in BlazBlue also looks similar.

Im looking at the char list but I dont seem to see any of them resembles I-No playstyle. She was my main in GG

Sigh, no I-no type in this game. I wonder if my mentor Koichi is playing this game or not. I remembered he touched SF4 but he didnt go very far

Im getting my LE copy but it wont be too soon, still cant think which one would be a main but Bang and Lichi would be considered

Maybe Carl Also since Dio played him so godlike

Care to elaborate what kind of shorcuts? Press 2 buttons and the special/super comes out?

i remembered before one of the MvC games had a similar system but they cap the chars with only 1 super bar. So there should be some draw backs for using such features

Ohhh, if use the analog stick then it doesn't matter, i thought use 2 button shortcuts . Going to sychronize combos and gameplay using the analog stick will be a bit tough so I dun think it will effect the match much.

Unless your using a Guile Type char and you'll wallk then sommersault. Now that may spoil the match up

Shortcuts are fine i think cause im guessing Arksys wants more players for the game but of course if they didnt put it in would be better. Still depends if one wants to improve in a fighting game or not. Surely if a Tourney was held they wont allow such shortcuts

Last time I played GG using the pad also was good enough, but once i get to the arcades and vs people there. I got blurred for a few matches
Then I had to buy the stick in the PS2 so that i can improve, cause there was one guy in the arcades who was dominating then i tak puas hati. Practice on a stick till my tv come out smoke, after a week challenge back then i dominated

Sadly, he changed his gameplay then he conquered again. Till now its still between me and him but its like 4/10 matches i won haha

I also preorder my LE already, so can count me in this game also but havnt think who I'll have as a main.

I dive in to almost every fighting games except Tekken~~~ Actually, i dive in already but really cant get the system of the game

I remembered was RM225 for LE at Gameon.com, also need to preorder but after ++ all flight charges come Sabah, its about the same as me getting from Play-Asia.com

So might as well i get from there if Gameon.com's stock doesn't meet the list.

Learning the basics of the game would be easy i guess, its just being able to understand some technical features the system uses that may or may not help in the gameplay.

For instances when i started playing GG and was using Venom as my main, the Jump Install feature helped out a lot on his game play. previously when i didnt know about it, i find venom was a bit dead and couldn't pressure ppl as what i've seen in match videos.

There was also a bug, the Fuzzy Guard, being exploited (its still under debate whether it was purposely made in the game or its a bug ) but i find this bug/feature helpfull for pressuring opponents.

Still, I would say playing conventioally like a Street Fighter can still manage to play the game but u'll lose out on everything the game system has to offer. I myself even though i played GG for so long, i still cant execute some of these technical things in a match

Lolz, so hyped up also ah about the game? My LE also waiting from PA so guess we'll be sparring again on another game

Go Go BB LE Gangz!!! let us spar when it comes...make lobby all join wack each other kao kao haha

Heres a question for everyone using a fightstick,

What will be your button settings? If im not mistaken, theres an option before a match that you can choose your button sets either;

A B C
D

or

B C D
A

although im not sure if that really is the scenario, just guessing after i saw some vids

Let me in with the BB gangz

Phyurix - Bang Shishigami

Haha, yes he is noisy but i think he can be of good use

Nice nice...hopfully the network wont be as bad as SF4

wished SF4 online lobby was using the same system, at least we get to see how other ppl plays

Lolz, guess they'd do anything to get a buck

I havnt even touched the game and i feel like learning Bang Shishigami

Fu Rin Ka Zan damn cool
