WHAT DO I THINK OF BLAZBLUE FOR PS3?

I've been playing the PS3 version of BlazBlue for about a day now and the verdict is in....

The creators of this game are out of their effing minds, (in a good way) fast paced combos and moves that cancel into one another at blinding speeds, devastating super attacks and combo breaking defensive barriers are all here to confuse the hell out of you.

The gauges and defensive moves are a little overwhelming at first but if you've ever played any version Guilty Gear or Marvel vs Capcom, it should take you just a couple of button mashing, semi circles crunching matches to find the move set for each character ( or you could use the move list in the pause menu but where's the fun in that? )

Each character has their own unique power ( Ice, Wind, Lighting, life leaching ) and most characters have a familiar look and feel to them:

TAGER = HULK,

ARAKUNE = SHUMA GORATH

CARL = HSIEN KO

LITCHI = DONOVAN

TAOKAKA = FELICIA

Don't get me wrong, they're not ripoffs, but you can see where the creators at Ark System Works wanted to pay homage to those great Capcom characters.

I think it's a great game, made by 2D fighting game fans for fans thats' definitly worth the price of admission. ( Just make sure you have a fightstick or be prepared for some seriiuos thumb blisters)

Bonus! Here's a nice video with some secret moves...Shhhhhhhhhhhhh
