YEAH. Just picked up the limited edition of BlazBlue for the Xbox 360, and I have to say I'm incredibly stoked playing this game. There's so much mystery shrouding this game that it's just exciting, I don't know a whole lot about it but I like the unknown (i.e. nothing like street fighter). Right now I'm cranking out the Haku-men combos, trying to get my head around some of the mechanics of this game -- I'm sure most of that will come in time however.

Here's a test video of me pretending I'm playing marvel in training mode or something. Hahah.

@WitchHunter_Z: That's a shame, just be careful as the 360 version most likely isn't region-free.

@lordofultima: Welcome to the club man! This game is so kickass!

Thing is though, is that those aren't real combos against a Training Dummy :p The game has tons of infinite combos like in your vid, but it's up to the Player to break-out of them.

@WitchHunter_Z: Yeah the 360 is Region Locked, but you can get either the JP or US PS3 version, which isn't. The only dilemma is that playing against Level 20+ Japanese Players, over PSN, will destroy your self esteem :p

@lordofultima: You diggin Haku-men too huuh? I love the range on his 6C. He can't move too fast on the ground but his air dash is nice for gettin across. Most importantly, he looks badass.

.... I heard you Tweeting in anticipation earlier.. It's a ______ bitch!, that we aint getting this game in Europe on 360!.

You mean you have hever played this awesome game before!?, GGx is bound to have a similar core mechanic to Blaz.

I have the awesome official heavy metal soundtrack too ^ ^

If you don't have one already, you should seriously consider getting yourself a Dreamcast at cheap cost and playing some of these classic fighters, your bound to end up loving a load of them. Alternatively, you can hope arcade gets them all eventually. I highly doubt some games will appear though.

Gonna go to Target and see if they have the copy today. I don't want to wait until this game actually ships from Amazon. I'll pay the tax for this game! It's worth it!

@Luke: Well by all means I'm not saying this combo would work at all in a match. There's plenty of combos I do in training mode just to get a feel for the game. It was the same with street fighter and linking strings info fireball FADC's infinitely.

@MrGetBonus: Haku-men has just a methodical pace that feels real nice, his normals are links so I feel at home in regards to the transition from Street Fighter, he has sick priority/range on his normals too.

@Linkyshinks: Yes I have played Guilty Gear, and I had quite a bit of fun with it, but more importantly loved the soundtrack to that game. But I was a different player back then, I didn't care about knowing about the game at all. I think Street Fighter has made me some elitist prick regarding fighting games, now I have to break it down into all this minutia.

I just bought the game for some reason...I saw it at Fry's, and I was not too familiar with the Guilty Gear franchise, having only played it a couple of times. I suppose I got it cause I was afraid it would run out of stock quickly, so I hope I don't hate it.
