    After hitting lv 30 with my ranger, I was pretty excited to switch to the newly unlocked gunner class. At first, I was definitely hit with some amount of disappointment due to how differently it played. It might be called gunners, but it's very much a close range, near melee class, particularly when you take a look at the range and animation of much of the photon arts for twin mech guns. But then I stumbled upon this little video. All I have to say is, I am all the way on board, holy shit. If this game comes out on the VITA here in the US, I might just drop the giant wad of cash and get one.

    That video put Final Fantasy fight scenes to shame. She didn't touch the ground once after the fight started.

    Gonna be honest though, nothing about that seemed all that impressive aside from flying and constantly repeating the same line. Seemed like two (or perhaps there was a third hidden in there) photon arts used over and over again. Maybe my untrained eyes are missing the true brilliance but... yeah.

    Also, Sega needs to hurry the eff up and get this game an English release. It was hard to convince friends to go through the process of signing up and then having me guide them through menus using Skype's share screen function.

    @superwristbands: Weak bullet, bullet squall, that dash move which I don't recognize, and I think I saw twin satellite in there. I need to emphasize that that staying up in the air like that is not easy to do, and the speed at which the guy got off the weak bullet shot, then switched out to twin mech guns is some SC2 apm level shit.
