Huge learning curve -- even for seasoned 2D fighting fans.
Only 12 characters
Loud
Gaudy
And potentially confusing for beginners.
Guy from Guilty Gear. The cast is rounded out of the overly sexual Litchi Faye Ling
The enormous Tager
And KOSMOS lookalike v13. All of them bring unique play mechanics and style to the table
And most importantly are all a blast to play with.

Abstract: I won't say I'm a hardcore fighting guy, I'm more of an arcade enthusiast than anything else, but there's a definite appeal with fighters and their arcade roots, which is why I've played a good chunk of them over the years. I certainly have my favorite...
Abstract: After a less-than-stellar change of pace with the 360 exclusive Guilty Gear: Overture, Arc Systems has returned to their fighting game roots with their latest epic brawler, BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - and trust me when I say, it was worth the wait. TH...
Abstract: It's pretty fair to say that BlazBlue is a title that flew directly under the radar this year. With almost no pre-release buildup or trickle-fed announcements, this blip on the radar seems at first to be just another arcade-style fighter imported from...
Abstract: Who would have thought a 2D side-scrolling fighter could look this amazing on a next-gen system. Well, obviously ARC did and they delivered with the heir apparent to the Guilty Gear franchise. BlazBlue is said to be tapped to take over from Guilty Gear...
