Promo video from AOU.
I guess we weren't wrong, it really is Sol Badguy, Ky Kiske, Bridget and Potemkin Lol.
It's looking really good, some smooth high res animation with Guilty Gear style. Tight music too.

At least Guilty Gear had decent to good character designs, while those from Blaze Blue are uninspired and plain, every single one of them.DaCocoBrova said:It's just like GGXX. Buttrock, questionable character designs and all that.

I think the fact that this game is being marketed as more or less 2D GG successor (and GGAC+ being the series proper send-off), makes the message clear. BB IS the new 2D GG, while GG2nd is probably going to be what Ishiwatari wants to do with the series now.
Extollere said:Heh, Guilty Gear's designs are no better or no worse. It's the same thing, buckles, straps, zippers and belts holding large pieces of cut out fabric over a generic looking figure with extraordinarilly bizarre hair. While most of Guilty Gear's characters and their designs have grown on me with time, I remember when I first saw them, and thinking how bad they were.
most likely true, however I wouldn't be surprised if GG made another entry into 2D form.
ezekial45 said:Yeah. And?
actually, they may keep the GG series on the Wii so that they don't have to up the resolution of the game. i mean, it makes sense, just keep the same sprites you've had for the past generation and maybe add a character here or there, add the general like for the GG series and you have a quicker cash scheme. make BlazeBlue for the HD consoles so you have something fresh for them and remain in lower res with the GG series, perhaps even to experiment a bit. it may not happen, but i wouldn't be surprised if it did end up like that.TreIII said:This is true. Really, the only bad thing going against BB is that GG did a lot of things first, so people are basically setting their own biases against it just because BB basically continues to write in the book that GG started.
Again, I just don't think it's likely, and your later part of your quote pretty much gives a good reason why.
Besides, between BB and BASARA X (which I'm looking very much forward to playing still!), ASW's 2D fighting game development teams have plenty to keep them busy, such that a new 2D GG isn't really all that necessary.
Overall, I think AC+ was meant to be the send-off. A fond farewell to those who loved the game series, before they later are meant to embrace the newness of BB.

Dali said:What about Basara X? An arguably more popular IP with much more room to grow and less baggage than a fighter that's been around since the Dreamcast. It's low res, so it could be the GG replacement for the Wii and PS2 instead of GG. I think ASW has to realize the fading appeal of the incremental changes in GG, so I agree with the idea that, for the time being, we won't be seeing anymore of the 2D fighter GG.
Joule said:How popular is Basara anyway? Basara X looks quite good and possibly quite fun to boot.
I agree that GG probably won't be seeing another iteration for awhile though I hope they'll finally make GGXXX someday. I'm not sure but I don't think AC-plus really finishes up the whole gear/that man/war bureau storyline. Let's not consider Overture.

Uhh... where in the bloody hell did he import the unit at?MarkMan said:Played the game a ton at my friend's place. GOOD STUFF.
To those that tried it at AX, what did you think?
Xabora said:Uhh... where in the bloody hell did he import the unit at?
I can't seem to find one online... be it the Taito Type X2 Combo unit with HDD & USB Encryption Key.
Or just the HDD & USB Encryption Key.
Given your location and Arc System Works plans to bring it to the US... he then works for.MarkMan said:He didn't import it. He works for the company that makes the game :lol !
