I don't own the game and it surprisingly wasn't even on my radar. I would see the occasional thread on it here especially from you shadowblind but never opened them. Finally I see a thread stating IGN gave it a 9.4 and decided to google it and check it out. Btw, I was always intrigued at the sigs i'd see of it, it was certainly provacative to my eyes but i've been to busy.

Yesterday I saw the gametrailers video review (they gave it a 9). HOLY FUCKTARTS!!!! This game is the shyyyyyyyyyttttt!!!!!!!!! First off, it is beautiful. Good god, among the best artwork for a video game I have ever seen.

Secondly I love it has it's own take on a fatality. Loved it in Mortal Kombat and I think I love it more here. I like the games direction. It goes against the grain and then chops that grain. The devs decision to put the storyline front in center instead of the means to an end fighting game storylines usually are is something I welcome greatly.

The fighting. The fighting animations in this game look so fluid and arcady. Fast paced hardcore action. My favorite part is the characters. They look so provacative. The characters make you wanna know just who they are and whats their story. That coupled with amazingly detailed artwork from the characters to the environments that contain them make this game a must buy and one of the best fighting games ever developed.

All this from a guy whose yet to actually play it. I'm buying it this week though and I'm very excited. Maybe the summer well ain't as dry as I thought it was.

Ohhh, yes, awesome game. Its taking me longer to get used to PS3 controls for BlazBlue, but I'm getting the hang of it :P so I'll be able to fight you no matter which system you buy it for.

The only problem I have right now 'could' be considered a spoiler, so i'll put it in blocks: Did the True Ending REALLY just end on a fucking CLIFFHANGER?! If that really is the true end, then exactly NONE of your questions will be answered.

Ready when you are vagabond  I'm a bit crappy right now after switching consoles, but heck, never get better unless I fight some.
