We know what secondary riders are playable yet? I know Date was doing voice overs for Birth, but I wonder if you can actually play as him.


...Mainly want Diend.

The next couple of weeks can't go by fast enough. ;_; I can't remember the last time I was this hyped for a game. :lol

By the way, I'm going to start working on the OT soon, and I should have it posted on Thursday.

So far all we know is that Accel and Beast are playable. Diend is in the game, but we don't know if he's playable or not. My money's on not.

Game hub for Battride War on Playstation.com. Confirms the playable roster is as follows:

Kuuga
Agito
Ryuki
Faiz
Blade
Hibiki
Kabuto
Den-O
Kiva
Decade
W
Accel
OOO
Birth
Fourze
Meteor
Wizard
Beast

So as I thought, only the Neo-Heisei secondary Riders are playable. Still, a roster of 18 characters is pretty great.
Bummer about no Diend or Skull. DLC maybe? Not like they can do costume DLC.

No IXA or Gatack makes me sad.

I'm hyped as hell, I have never imported a game before for PS3 (I had 2 friends buy me copies of FFXIII and FFXIII-2 when they went to Asia though). I hope it doesn't take that long...

With EMS shipping it should only take between 3-6 days.

And yeah, I'm super hyped as well. This is the Kamen Rider game I've always wanted. These next couple of weeks are going to go by so slowly. ;_; I've got Sleeping Dogs and DMC3 to keep me occupied until then, and the new season of Arrested Development coming up as well, but still...I need this game noooooow.

No Gills, G3, or IXA. Son, I am disappoint.

Didn't we see New Den-O? Or is he just going to be a NPC?

NPC.

You and me both. Hope this does well and gets a Sentai version then an 'Orochi' style mashup with both and Metal Heroes,.

Sentai only gets shit games, though. It's like the unspoken rule these days. :lol That Gokaiger/Shinkenger/Goranger game on the Wii was garbage, the Gokaiger DS game was garbage, and the Kyoryuger game for the 3DS looks like it's gonna be shit too. Last good one I can remember playing was the Hurricanger game for PS1 (game looked amazing for a PS1 game, too). Space Sheriff Spirits on the PS2 was pretty bad too (and that was the first time they'd tried a Metal Hero game since...the NES, I think?).

Gokaiger would have been the best opportunity they had to make a good Sentai game, and they blew it. And in all honesty, a musou style Sentai game would be pretty difficult to do, just because of the sheer number of characters you'd have to put in. You'd either have to go for a huge roster full of characters with mostly cloned movesets, or a smaller roster consisting of...Reds and Sixths? I guess? A Sentai musou game would be a logistical nightmare. :lol

To be fair, most Kamen Rider games are terrible. Fanservice aside, that DS game was shallow as hell. And I absolutely think a sentai musou would be reds and sixths.

Which DS game? Rider Generation? While I'll admit the first one wasn't very good at all, the PSP version of Rider Generation 2 is fantastic. Great old-school style beat 'em up with a nice leveling system and an absolute shit-ton of characters. I've put a ton of time into it. And the Climax Heroes series...well, it started off absolutely awful (small roster, shitty unfinished characters, etc), but by the time Climax Heroes Fourze came around, it had become a really good fighter, and Super Climax Heroes only improved upon that, to the point where I'd call it a genuinely great game. Go back further than that, to the PS1 and PS2 eras, and...yeah, only the Kabuto game is any good out of those. The rest are shitty cash-in fighters thrown together with little care for quality. The Kabuto game, on the other hand, had some really good ideas and was pretty unique as far as fighters go. And I know some people swear Seigi no Keifu is a good game, but I just don't see it.

But yeah, Super Climax Heroes and Rider Generation 2 are absolutely great games. And I'm sure Battride War will be as well. Things are finally picking up for the KR franchise, video game-wise.

Also, if there's one thing that bugs me about Battride War, it's this:

Look at how cluttered that HUD is. Lifebar, enemy lifebar, combo counter, belt display, map, mission description...far, far too much of the on-screen real estate is taken up by various things. I really hope you can turn at least some of that stuff off.

Apparently the Asian version has been cancelled if Buygame2 are to be believed :/

I had my preorder in with Buygame2. Oh well, they offered me the Japanese version for around the same price so all's not lost.

Oh what the hell? Did you mean this one? "Kamen Rider Battride War - Hong Kong"? I never got any email from them, now I have another issue to deal with.

This is my first time ordering with BuyGame2, not having a pleasant experience at all. I didn't read that 'don't send payment yet' until confirmation, so I stupidly sent them the PayPal payment first after checkout. So my $72USD was immediately taken from my PayPal balance, and it was an 'authorization'. I thought it was weird and ignored it (I paid on May 13th) since the money left my account already.

A few days ago, they sent me an email saying yo you didn't pay yet, and I told them I did pay with a screenshot. They say it was an authorization only. I called PayPal and they basically said the funds are on hold, and they can't do anything. The seller has to accept or decline. I already asked them to do SOMETHING with the transaction, I hope they respond soon because I'm pretty frustrated with this. Basically PayPal said they don't even know when the hold will expire so my $72 is floating around nowhere since BuyGame2 won't do anything. :/ I have just explained to them in another email, so I hope they actually take action.

Pretty sour experience so far.

Sorry to hear that. It can take them a few days to get back to emails etc, so they should be back to you soon hopefully. Honestly, this is the only negative I've ever had with them. They're great most of the time.
