Okay! That settles it for me then. Fight Stick for the PS3 and playing over that network, and I'll just either afford an XBox version at a later date or borrow them for 360 tourneys.

Thanks! PS3 BlazBlue player here. lol

My sources say that Makoto is gonna have some lulzy execution, be ready for a lot of 41236 and 63214 commands.

Nu is also coming back for Legion and Story mode.
2ch is speculating that she may be an unlimited form of Lambda.

If Makoto has a dash punch, an overhead punch, an axe kick, a command grab, and a terrible DP I'll laugh.

Obvious jokes aside, I really don't like the idea of characters as DLC in a fighting game. The best thing to do in fighting games imo is to have all the characters playable on the disc when you sell the game at retail. I'd rather them delay the game for about 2 weeks than have Makoto be DLC. This is bad for the community as a whole too since it requires everyone to pay extra money for this character in order for her to be used in tournaments.

Nu Unlimited would be cool as Lambda's unlimited form though. I'd like to see Nu in the game somehow.

lol, got infracted for my last post so guess I wasn't clear enough. It was a reference to the insanely stupid and obscene amount of fan service in this game.

I agree 100% with this.

Everyone who's getting BBCS on PS3, we should create a lobby and play each other once the game's out.

lol release parties.

Fuzzy idea really. For some of us who have to relearn their character, that may not work too well.

Sounds like fun to me. :)

Man, I'm importing the Japanese game. Which means navigating the Japanese store. Which means purchasing a Japanese points card. Curses.

Ehh, it's just for fun, who cares about winning if there's no money on the line?

Relearning Nu/Lambda won't be too hard for me. Mashing D still works.

It's a matter of principle, I want people to work for the revenge they are so hungry for.
Lord knows I've tormented enough people with my 5-6k curse combos.
I want to give them a worth while apology, with 8-12k curse combos.

In hype related news, I got my TE and Seimitsu buttons today and I went to modding them immediately.
I made a thread on DL explaining my steps and what-not.

I'm on a budget.
I only need 4 buttons to play BB, 5 if you include taunt/start, which unless I'm playing Tao, I don't need to worry about.

2+2, I suppose one day I'll mod the rest of the face buttons, but I kinda don't need to.

No art modding for me.
As much as I'd like to do it, it requires me ordering more stuff and paying for it, and again, I'm on a budget.

I wasn't trying to be a douche or anything. I just wanted to say that an art mod doesn't have to be super expensive to look somewhat decent.

That's all.

I never would have thought DLC characters would be this controversial.
It's hard for me to see anything bad about getting more characters. :/

It's not that I don't want more characters, it's that I don't want to pay extra for them. On the other hand this is only gonna cost $40 so I guess it's a good deal.

That's nice. Is it Okami related?

The characters take a lot of work to make, so paying for them isn't too bad.
And at least it's not like other games where you have to pay for things already on the disc. :/

Many of the Guilty Gear fans love to complain about BB being too easy, you probably won't have too much trouble.

I have to agree with this. I'll pay for quality additional content, especially when a small company like Arc requires significant resources to develop it. I can justify it. Paying for additional content that costs resources to produce makes sense. In this case, these resources are producing new music, sprites, voices, mechanics, etc. I'm okay with paying five dollars for another character. I mean, you bought Blazblue for $40, so why wouldn't you pay a little extra to buy quality content from a company like Arc?

Plus, if you're not running tournaments, it doesn't matter.

It kind of does.

This game isn't as projectile heavy as Street Fighter, so comparing Ragna to Ryu isn't very apt. Jin is more like Ryu than Ragna is. They're both good beginner characters though.

Tager doesn't have a Lariat or a ground forward dash, but other than that he's similar to Zangief.
