If you like fighters I recommend Blazblue (either one, although I personally prefer Continuum Shift). Excellent, albeit somewhat confusing, story and a combo system that's relatively easy to get good at and isn't as unforgiving and difficult to master as the SF4 system. And CS is pretty well balanced to boot, Calamity Trigger not so much (Nu is totally and completely broken).

Thanks for the info.  I've never played BlazBlue, only MK games, SC, and SF... and it's good to know that it isn't as ridiculously hard as SF4.  If it were, that would really deter me.

Can you elaborate more on what is broken with Calamity Trigger?  I was going to pick it up as well with Continuum Shift until you wrote this.  

Calamity Trigger is a good game, the tier list is just rather heavily weighted towards the zoning characters. Certain match ups such as Tager/Rachel or Hakumen/Nu are almost ludicrously one-sided. To elaborate on that slightly Rachel and Nu, and to a lesser extent Arakune can punish minor mistakes with very high damage combos from almost any range. Hakumen and Tager are both rather slow and have almost no long range attacks so it's very difficult for them to get in. Don't let that deter you though, like I said it's still a good game.
