same here. I've heard some pretty good things about Fate/Unlimited. From the images I've seen of it, the game looks pretty good.

I'm pumped. I hope for more of these kinda games to release here. Those Bleach fighters, Brandish, Macross Ace Frontier. *drool*

Spot on - I know Sven from Capcom mentioned they're considering releasing Basara PSP as DD as well...

Basara is another anime fighter? Or is it a RPG?

 

 Basara games are usually Dynasty Warriors-like. PSP game is a fighter.

Fate/unlimited codes is a bit of secret here in the West, but hopefully not for too long. Coming from Japanese arcades and developed by the now well-known Tatsunoko vs Capcom team, Fate beautifully combines Soul Calibur weapon-based combat with the freedom and unrestrained fun of a Marvel vs Capcom-style game. Fate also combines the easy pick-up-and-play style of those games, so anyone can sit down and start having fun right away. You've got air-combos, dashing, and crazily different characters, and with the PSP, it's all in the palm of your hand.

 

Hit the jump for the full release, click here for more screenshots, and trust me--if you're a fighting afficianado, you're definitely going to want to check this one out. The best fighter on the PSP by miles!

But...do you even watch those anime? Kinda hard to get excited about anime games if you don't even know about them IMO.


I don't know the case with Brandish and Macross but more Bleach fighters aren't coming (for now?) because in the US the anime is behind. Like, Bleach: Versus Crusade for example has characters from the Arrancar arc in Bleach but that arc just barely started in the US.

I don't watch the Bleach anime, but I have Bleach: Heat the Soul 5 for PSP. It's in Japanese but hella fun. They also just released Bleach: Soul Carnival for PSP.

Brandish and Macross are just good games that I want in English along with Bleach.

If I remember correctly there is one other major Fate/Stay Night related fighting game.

It's Fate/Tiger Colleseum. The game was als handled by Cavia and published by Capcom. Fate/Tiger Colleseum is more like powerstone, and the character look a lot more cuter, and it's a lot more easier to play, and really not aimed at fighting game crowds as much as a tribute to the very famous visual novel game. There was also an expansion/extra version of the game which was release late last year i think.

This game is probably aim very much at hard core fighting game crowds and looks much more refined.
