  • I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this is not really a G4 video...nice lie, though.

  • @noobsmoke13 no, its simply an anime style fighting game.

  • hey great vid, how do you change the characters clothes?? anyone please help :P

  • @Domesticgoddes5

    You mean color palettes? Pressing different buttons in the character select screen when picking your character (i.e. X and O/A and B have different colors for the selected character) will do that. If you're playing BBCS/CS2, press Start instead of the face buttons and a palette selection window will pop up.

  • This is quite a great game :) i saw some other gameplay for skit purposes and I was like "That sounds like a cool game" and I don't even play black ops anymore, I'm usually studying the characters moves XD

  • this game sucls asss

  • @rockNrollereE

    So does your grammar.

  • i cant see my d pad combos its hard to read help!!!!

  • U got your ass pwned

  • @MrChocolate974

    dude,

    this was done on the first time playing

    people playing baseball don't hit like babe ruth on the first try

    who why should he kick ass on the first try

  • the pc v. is like 6...7gb.. that heavy only for 12charas.. nah wtf >.< .

  • arakune is more like No Face from Spirited Away.

  • why is it that arakune has face like the shy-guys from the mario series? lol

  • this looks confusing

  • i'm just curious....why everbody like ths game??i never play it before.can anyone explain it why this game is awesome??

  • i am mad that i just bought blazblue CT for ps3, when continuum shift is out like, right now. i am from europe though so the releasedate shouldnt be too far away. thinking of importing the game.

  • I got this game today for 15 euro. Bargain?

  • Is that the ghost from Spirited Away? :D

  • @itsukasa1 it looks like it :)

  • which is newer? continuum shift or calamity trigger?

  • @Prototype10000

    Continuum Shift. The North American release is later this month, no word of an European release date yet.

  • @GatlingSmash pm me if its out in NA

  • @Prototype10000 continuum shift is the 2nd one calamity trigger is the 1st one.

  • @zZzFrostBoltzZz  thx dude

  • I WANT THIS GAME

  • is it me or is this game looking slow?

  • @capcom23 the guy in the vid is explaining and demonstrating the mechanics of the game

    if you consider this game to be slow then street fighter is considered to be far way more slower maybe even the slowest 2d fighter

  • @MelbShaw mmm i'm not sure. To me the movement seems quite slow. Isn't there any turbo mode? Maybe it takes a bit time to get used to. I don't like it when a game is like in a slow motion mode :S.

  • In english version, on Xbox 360, are there a japanese voice?

  • @PaczShinobi

    Yes, all versions of the game are bilingual.

  • i want to know more about the fighting style

    i didnt play guilty gear before so is it like tekken ,street fighter , king of fighters or easier ?

    :D

  • You should check out the video ARC put up, it's pretty sweeeet. Put 'blazblue graffiti animation' into youtube search and enjoy!

  • It's the spirit from Spirited Away, that's fucking cool. Might get it entirely for that reason. Is there an online community with this?

  • @TheMassDefect

    You might want to wait until June/July, when the next BlazBlue comes out. :P And yes, Arakune totally rocks!

    While the online community isn't as full of spammers and such as Street Fighter's, there's a bit of character abusing online. In terms of forums and such, you can go to sites like the Shoryuken boards, Fighter's Generation or Dustloop (which is dedicated to Guilty Gear and BlazBlue). You should be able to get info and tips there. :P

  • @GatlingSmash Why thank you, that's quite possibly the most useful reply comment I have ever received on YT, LOL! I love Arakune.... thanks for the info!

  • so its basically just a guilty gear game but with worse music

  • i want

  • @starvinstev i dont think its fair to ever compare a 3d game with hand drawn... ever... even if sf retained their 2d plane...

  • They're both awesome!!!

  • i played this at an Arcade at first i didnt know fully what to do but i got there i think u need to invest time into it but i did feel it was overrated and i prefered playing SF4 but maybe because i didnt put enough time in to it i will next time

  • THIS GAME IS GONNA BE SICK(good way)

  • i can,t wait to play blazeblue on psp

  • This Game s Fucking awesome

  • YEAH!!!

  • im going to watch the anime

  • This game looks cool i'm gonna get it when it comes out (but first i'll need to get a PS3 first *sigh*)

    Tager is way better that Potenkin from Guilty Gear, all the characters look awesome!

  • @darkjazz10

    Ya know it comes out on XBox 360 and PC too.

  • Are they going to release PC version of this ?

  • Probably not. Even though Arc System wants to make BB as widely known as possible (PS3, 360, now PSP and even a DS spinoff), a PC version is unlikely to make much profit. Take SFIV, for example -- it didn't sell nearly as well as Capcom had thought, and it went well under the console version sales.

  • @GatlingSmash

    Well French trailer of the game has a Games for Windows mark on it and you can already order PC version of BlazBlue from Japanese Amazon site...

  • There IS going to be PC version ;)

  • I will bought this game :D

  • You know what's better than watching the first 3:30 of this video? not watching the first 3:30 minutes of this video. fkn wasted my gigs brue

  • It sure was worth it when it was the first confirmation of the game coming to consoles -- people had assumed it's only coming to PS3, and when Harry said "Xbox 360", a lot of people were probably very, very happy. :P

  • This game does seem epic and i am definately getting it, tho Tager does seem just like an improved version of potemkin

  • im getting either this and dbz or tekken and dbz

  • Bullshit that the "D-code Edit" didn't make it in the final version...

  • going to buy this ASAP

  • lol u suk playing u get beated

  • NTSC means for europe too right?

  • i don't think i mostly seen that on US

  • NTSC = US, NTSC/J = Japan, PAL = Europe.

  • no, PAL is europe

    NTSC is america

  • the fun thng is that UK has to wait for all of europe for translating... yet USA and UK speak the SAME damn language.... pisses me off ;/

  • @222demon222 Nope, PAL is for Europe.

  • Whoever said that? This is something Arc System Works did because they wanted to make a new series from GG, the fact that BB and SFIV manage to be two fighting games are the only relevance I see between them, other than that, they have two different gameplay mechanics, and fuck SFIV, that rehash of II, no offense, but I prefer Third Strike, the best of them all.

  • i agree man,

    capcom let us down. 3rd strike and alpha 3 are the shit. thiss game looks good. i think ill buy it tommorow

  • Comment removed

  • I love the whole aesthetic of this game. It's so beautiful to look at and play. Even the menus are amazing.

  • i agree. sf is an epic series but the new one sucks...it feels like it's almost to simple to a fault and the combo's are lacking and pre-scripted. i think that people who think they are good at sf4 would get rolled in a game like this...or even a game such as the old marvel vs series.

  • LOLOLOLOLOOL street fighter, street fights its pacman compare with this kind of games

  • 1st player sucks

  • Carl is lowest tier, the worst character.

  • Blegh, if you believe in tiers, you'll never achieve a character's full potential thinking, "they're the lowest tier, therefore the worst."

  • They don't mean a character is unusable or not fun, just that they will be more difficult to use against high tier characters in a tournament setting. The game just really favors Ragna and Arakune, so it takes a less skilled player to win with them consistently.

  • The game "favors" no-one.

    And you can't win with Arakune if you're not skilled. See, his learning curve is steep (as in hard) as hell, only beaten by Rachel and Carl's.

    If you devote enough time to learning the character, they can be just as good as you let them be.

  • Yes, it does actually. Look at the sprite data and math behind it (which intense players have done) and you'll see why. It's just like GG in that way.

    I never disagreed with you about the second point, but I remain firm that when it comes down to it in fighting games in general some characters are better than others. There's a reason they made countless iterations of Guilty Gear.

  • I'm fully aware of the sprite data in the game. I've been playing BB for a year, after all. That doesn't mean the game "favors" specific characters. Of course, some characters are overall better than some others, but everyone has their pros and cons. A good strategy (and obviously, skill) can easily lead to victory over a "superior" character.

  • soo is arakune

  • but now hes on of the best

  • This game looks so effing awesome I love the GG series as well I can already tell Ragna is gonna be my man sol badguy might have a lol comepetition when the game does well (trust me it will) they should think of a versus series after the second blaze blue comes out due to the cast being a lil shorter than GG at the moent and yes the metal effing rocks and I never even lisened to metal b4

  • dude fuck score mode. i just beat it today,,,,,,and dude......fuck it....fuck it to hell...fuck it to the damnation of man kind. such a cheap final boss

  • rofl

  • i got -3 for telling the truth

  • it is hard though

  • I want this game so bad! Lets hope the 30th October European release date holds true.

  • Where'd you hear that..? Sounds like a rumor to me >_>

  • Comment removed

  • OMFG!!!! it looks so damn good (I'm a big GG fan) im sooooooooooooooooooooooo wanting this game :)

    as always Daisuke Music is AWESOME it really gives a pluss to fighting games

  • What's the D-Code Edit menu about @ 1:30?

  • rebel 1? action? wheel of fate is turning? jesus christ.

  • Don't forget about the tips mode: "Teach me, Boobie Lady!"

  • The commentators enthusiasm about the game really hypes it up

  • Speaking of the characters of the game as in "tiers" is like admitting that the game has failed, because what "tiers" really means is unbalanced.

  • they should make a blazblue vs guilty gear for all consoles. that would be the shit

  • :O hope it comes out on steam

  • AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh man that was a good one.

  • hey everyone how do i unlock justice in midnight carnival on xbox? let me kno

  • call him and he will come xD

  • u cheeky basterd

  • damn man i want the japanese version.

    jin and ragna are the new sol badguy and ky kiske awesome game dude love the artwork

    the soundtrack kicks ass but you still cant beat

    GUILTY GEAR X2 - STILL IN THE DARK

  • Haha, true.

    Ishiwatari's songs have always been plain awesome. Words can't describe the soundtracks he makes.

    My personal favorite is Holy Orders (Be Just or Be Dead) from GG2 Overture. It's the best version of Ky's theme in my opinion, and it even made me start playing electric violin, haha. The song really had an impact on me.

  • Really? I thought they raped the song in Overture. My personal favorite would be Momentary Life (the original version).

  • Comment removed

  • whats so bad about 2d games

  • lol ur terrible and 2d games rock thts where they all started so your just an ignorant noob

  • same gulity gear style

  • wen is this available 4 the u.k

  • There's no official release date. It'll probably take a while (IF it'll have a PAL launch), since Aksys doesn't publish in Europe.

  • are there any english voices, or STILL just jap

  • Yes, there is an English voice option.

  • alright! finally! i hept hopin theyd put it in guilty gear, but im glad they finally did it.

  • She controls the wind?

    Fawking awesome.

  • Does anybody know whos the main character in this game?

  • main.. character? its a fighting game. there is no main character.... in terms of "Most used characters" Ragna, Jin, Noel, and V-13 take the cake.

  • Not true. Following the story, Ragna is the main protagonist, which is turn technically means he is the Main Character. That is the same with Sol Badguy in guilty Gear.

  • I guess you could technically pin down a primary character in a lot of the big franchises out there. Ryu in Street Fighter, for example.

    Like Guilty Gear, this game probably has two particular characters that dislike each other who stand as the primary characters.

  • Yep. In BlazBlue, it's Ragna and Jin.

    Ragna also has a lot in common with Sol, whereas Jin closely resembles Ky.

  • Anyone know if the music has any insane tapping solos?

  • Sadly, no.

  • Damn thats what I love about Guilty Gear.

  • Genesic Emerald Tager Buster!!!!!

  • i am in love with the artwork. i love the attention to detail and cant wait to pick up my copy..games like blublaze kind of reminds me of something like odin sphere but a fighting game...still rad ass though!!

  • Fighting game maniacs unite!

  • this owns sf4 im in awe of the graphics !

  • This game really does look great. And people say 2D fighters are dead and don't count for next gen. This game passes in every way. The characters are really unique and well drawn. I wish street fighter 4 was done like this. I know sf4 is 2D and a great fighter, however anime style graphics and new abilities would have done sf4 more justice. To be honest I kind of like street fighter third strike better. I hope third strike becomes a download. I think I will buy this real soon.

  • this is FACT ... blazblue needed 4 guys[or girls] to design each character and his / her moves. and even at that it took them on average a couple of months to do so for each character, this is like a interactive movie not just a game

  • Comment removed

  • That is bad ass. It shows just how much effort was put into this game.

  • so true ! i pre ordered ... $103 including shipping [limited edish] i cant stress how bad i need this game ! its the only game im worried my tv has the capabilities to express this game to its max [ its a sony 38" hd ] this game is THAT good :D

  • maybe i'm missing something but i just reserved the limited edition at gamestop yesterday... why did you pay so much?

  • im imagining you live in america .. anyways the shipping and handling costs amount to the price of the game pre ordered so im paying double you. but its totally worth it

  • Too bad you got ripped off. Limited is only $60

  • Well... I love guilty gear and no face from spirited away is a playable character!!! No doubt, I'm getting this game

  • street fighter4,tekken 6,marvel vs capcom 2 re release, KOF 12,samuria showdown edge of destiny,capcom vs tatsunoko and blueblaze calamity........holy shit anybody else loves 2009?the fighters are back.

  • year of the Fighters fo sho!

  • im in love !!! this year is a gaming heaven

  • Freakin awesome. Fighters are back and with a vengeance. There is something for everybody- Street Fighter fans, KOF fans, guitly gear fans, and crossover fans. Personally, I am happy to see the return of true 2D fighters.

  • this looks awesome!!

  • Rebel 1? Action? what the hell.... Guilty Gear had a much better battle opening

  • Haha yeah, every fighting game seems to be trying to be creative with their battle openings. "Duel X, Let's Rock" was my favorite by far, but Tekken's simple and clean "Round X, Fight!" is good enough.

  • "HEAVEN OR HELL FIGHT!"

  • meh

  • I REALLY hope they have DLC that includes alternate costumes or more characters or something. Not enough characters in my opinion. Then again... The BlazBlue series is just starting out.

  • Man, never any love for people who have a Wii. Good thing I just got a 360. Can't wait to get my hands on this game.

  • Nah, Wii loves people who have the Wii, just not the hardcore people who have a Wii. They love the soccer moms and 8-year olds that play Wii. While us real gamers who actually play the Wii for GAMES, get screwed and get stupid casual games.

  • same i lucked out and recently got a 360 from my friend , reserved the game already cant wait to get it

  • love every character on this game but tager... -_-

    and when you start this game every character is already unlocked??? wtf?

  • Tager is actually pretty good, he's just not such a great counter for some characters.

    And well, since there were only two hidden characters anyways (Nu and Hakumen), both of which were accessed in the arcades way before the console release, it makes sense to have them in from the get-go.

  • That's a good thing isn't it? One of the biggest gripes I had with SF4 was having to unlock the whole cast before being able to play as them. Unlocking the artwork is fine, but competitve multiplayer games (especially fighters) shouldn't have you do a bunch of chores to unlock the cast.

  • A lot ppl say this wouldn't be worth the price, and they'd call me an idiot,

    but im spending 70 bucks on ordering this game's limited edition set anyway online; arc system rocks!

  • mk vs dc...................lol

  • is this a branch of guilty gear? it looks so simular

  • I don't know if it can be called a "branch," but its made by the same people who made Guilty Gear.

  • Yup, by the same developers. And not does it only look like GG, it functions pretty much like it as well.

    But note that BB is a spiritual successor to Guilty Gear, not a branch of it. It's not located in the same universe.

  • Wouldnt it be nice if someone develops and action game with 3d backgrounds and 2d characters? i think it'll make heads turn and if its already done could u show me?

  • You're currently watching one, haha. The stage in this video doesn't really show it, but all the backgrounds in BlazBlue are 3D. It's best seen in Litchi's stage, Oriental Town. The two console-exclusive stages (Monorail and Carnival) also use the feature really well. You should watch a few match videos and see for yourself, you'll notice how well the backgrounds have been made!

  • Im sorry i meant like an adventure game when you can walk all around in 360 deg...for instance lets say ninja gaiden had a 3d background but all the characters were 2d. A full all-round motion.

  • this game is so not worth 60 bucks

  • You're a fuckin' idiot. This game was never based on an anime. They just use an anime type of concept on this fighting game.

  • What? No one said this is based on an anime.

  • Game informer gave Blazblue a 7.75. I don't know why. This game deserves a least a 9 out of 10.

  • is this a psn title? our Blu ray?

  • Blu-ray.

  • Reminds me of Darkstalkers
