When does it come out for PSN?

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Not up for Australia, Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands and Switzerland at the moment. Maybe more regions. Hope this gets resolved soon.

 

[xero273]

When does it come out for PSN?

nov.1 for japan.

 

[ScOULaris]

When does it come out for PSN?

November 1st, as mentioned in the OP.

I might have to bite on this and Okami HD. My wallet is pleading with me to reconsider, but I'm most likely gonna pull the trigger.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Skimming DL and twitter, the netcode is a worry. I've been thinking of getting this but only somewhere down the line as my plate is full of fighters to learn already.

 

[Forkball]

Guilty Gear X2 is one of my favorite fighting games. I wish they would revive it, but it looks like they moved on to BlazBlue.

 

[SolarKnight]

Ouch, I hope it's just a similar situation to P4A in the worst case :/

 

[FreedomFrisbee]

Aaaand downloaded.

Been waiting so long for a not broke online guilty gear.

Thanks.

Although the date wasn't in the OP when I made that reply.

I wanted this even as just AC+ so I could play online on PS3 with my arcade stick. I don't mean to be elitest or anything, but after spending a long time on the stick, it's hard to go back to a controller and without a PS2 arcade stick, I can't really play AC+ with one.

 

[Jotamide]

The King is back (online). Get hype!

Ouch, I hope it's just a similar situation to P4A in the worst case :/

Since when is P4A netcode bad? :S

 

[danmaku]

It was bad on 360 at launch and was quickly patched.

I'll download the game as soon as I get home and see for myself, Arcsys always did a good job with online.

 

[Lyte Edge]

Since when is P4A netcode bad? :S

There were major netcode issues on the 360 version when it initially came out in Japan. Arc patched it right around when the U.S. version came out, IIRC.

BlazBlue CS on 360 also originally had some netcode issues...and they patched it when the U.S. version came out. Seems typical for them.

 

[NinajHeartless]

Downloaded

Hype levels are out of control at the moment!

 

[Yes Boss!]

Anybody in a weird funky small japanese poster for this game?

Came with an arcade stick I got for the game. It is really ugly but made of clear translight (like the signage at a fast-food restaurant).

 

[FreedomFrisbee]

Ya, having just played some matches, the online's fine.

 

[SolarPowered]

I want to play this now. I really reaaaaaaaaaally want to play this right now. Stupid PSN getting it later.

 

[Kandrick]

Still not up in certain countries...

Psyched to (re)buy this game.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Yeah, potentially getting screwed out of getting yet another Arc game is pretty ridiculous.

 

[BiggNife]

EDIT Just reread OP, changed my question:

Have they said if the PSN/XBLA versions will get the AC+R balance update at some point?

 

[Deleted member 13876]

So, quick question:

Does this include the balance changes from AC+R, which just came out in Japanese arcades? I'm confused because this is just labeled as AC+ but it seems really weird to me to release an older version when a new update just came out.

Not included. Rumor is they'll patch it in for free at some unknown date, but as far as I know that's not confirmed. Pretty awkward releasing it this way, but at this point I'll take any Guilty Gear over none.

 

[Delusibeta]

EDIT Just reread OP, changed my question:

Yes, Arc said that they will get the update.

 

[remz]

Sitting in australia. Massive guilty gear fan. Didn't even read the thread, went straight to download.

Sorry,

This offer is not valid in your region.​

Fuck off. Fuck off Arcsys. Fuck off region locking. First P4A now this shit. I'm hoping this is some kind of technical difficulties shit because this is ridiculous. What a load of horseshit.

Hahaha.

Why not worlwide ? 99% of the games are released worlwide on xbla and it's not like this one is targeted at one country or has licensing problems.

So basically never, then.

Fuck you too Arc.

It appears this year someone shoved a stick up arc's ass and now all their games are ridiculously region locked. I don't even get the technicalities that could be stopping them.

 

[Yes Boss!]

ok

Psyched to (re)buy this game.

You wanna claim it? I'm warning: it is really ugly.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

So basically every neighboring country safe the Netherlands. Christ, get this stuff right.

 

[SolarKnight]

Nothing for Mexico yet either. I guess it's a good thing that I'm stuck at school for 7 more hours anyways >__>

 

[Jotamide]

Wait a fucking minute...a downloadable title that is region-locked?! If this doesn't make its way to the Canadian PSN I'm flipping a goddammn table.

 

[Kandrick]

It's that it didn't release everywhere like usual. No one knows if it's coming at a later date ( since it's rare for xbla games to not release worldwide at the same time) or even if it's coming at all to the other countries. Will have to wait until next week to see the situation with the PSN release.


Yeah, it sucks.

 

[brollyman2k]

You wanna claim it? I'm warning: it is really ugly.

if he doesn't want it i'll take it

 

[Yes Boss!]

if he doesn't want it i'll take it

Yeah, trying to donate the poster. Guess my typing made it not so clear. In any case, PM me an address and I'll send it.

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Avaliable now for XBLA!

what, what, WHAT???? Buying it as soon as I get home.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Anyone know the reasoning behind the week or so delay between XBLA and PSN release?

I'm a bit miffed as I was going to buy this as part of my spend $100 in October to get $20 back... and it's currently slated to be released a day after the offer ends (instead of on the 24th)... ugh.

 

[brollyman2k]

There is no song.
You scored your first instant kill.

LOOOOOOOOL

 

[Riposte]

Any clue on what that "later date" might be? In this year?

 

[Tizoc]

What's up with the lack of subtitles in OTs? 3 OTs without a subtitle!
At any rate IMO, the subtitle should be 'Let's get down to business'.

Looking forward to the English release, Potemkin all day e'ry day!

That will always be my favorite combo video due to the way it was edited

 

[Busaiku]

I still cannot fathom why this is M.

 

[QisTopTier]

I still cannot fathom why this is M.

For the same reason uncensored darkstalkers would be.

Also i-no

 

[LegatoB]

And there was some fairly racy art in the Gallery, if I recall correctly.

 

[Rickenslacker]

Also i-no

That one pixel single frame nipple slip is scandalous.

 

[Busaiku]

But it was T just 3 years ago.
And it's still T on PSP Favorites (which was released a couple months ago).

 

[ShinobiFist]

They region locked this? Ha, not buying it. Love GG, just like VF, but this is stupid.

 

[arit]

Can someone confirm, that there is no rematch option in local 2p mode?

 

[QisTopTier]

Everyone knows the ESRB are strict as fuck specially when it comes to shit like that. It was easy to miss in the first place.
