Why are you such a big Guilty Gear fan? Anyways I'm happy PS3 gets a new exclusive. ^^

But how big is Guilty Gear actually as a franchise, do these games sell well?
And how good or bad are Guilty Gear games?

Never played one? I like them very much and they have a fanbase I don't know if it is big but I know a lot of fans of that game. Guilty Gear is a great game you should try it.

About Sales I don't know....VG don't have the sales data for them.

Hmm, the original Guilty Gear did nothing for me, but this sounds slightly appealing at least.

Interesting. Not my type of game at all, but the more exclusives the better I suppose.

Any expected release date? I've never played the GG games, but they've always looked interesting to me.

The game is made by Arc System's of GG fame. It was just recently announced to be Arcade/PS3. Nothing mentioned about it to 360.

The game is called BLAZBLUE, ~~and take places 10 years after GGXX, so its looking to be an official sequel to the GG series with a fresh touch.~~

Sorry I actually just got confirmation that it has absolutely zero to do with the universe of Guilty Gear, an appropriate translator just corrected that, sorry about that misunderstanding fellas.

....have any of you guys noticed the stream of 'exclusive' games coming to the PS3 after kutaragi was replaced by Kaz? Seems like people are welcoming the platform more than they did before.

Please confirm me you are just joking... Just first exclusive i have heard in ages... and u have started calling it as stream of exclusives..

Not that this is totally related, but Guilty Gear is AWESOME, although they seem to have thrown the franchise into the toilet with Guilty Gear 2: Overture. Oh well.

OT:

This looks sweet; I can't wait to see what the high-res screens look like. Still, it almost seems strange nowadays for fighting games to be full-priced releases, at least to me.

Hates Nomura.
