Blazeblue for the NW?

I called Acme Bowl today, they said it might be there tomorrow so… take that for what it’s worth? I’ll be there the day that it is, but I might not spend that much money the first day. I’ll probably just mess around with Arakune and see how it plays.

There will be lots of good players there on… well, either Friday night or Saturday. The Guilty Gear club from DigiPen is rolling out.

I guess… You should watch some of the newer tiger stuff, he looks hella good. Plus unlike most characters he has a projectile and like Magnet powers. Also he has crazy reverse kara-throw (you force the opponent into your grab range). Not to mention the fact that you can hold his command grabs and they are invincibile while doing so. He’s pretty buff.

Oh plus comboing into them doesn’t guarantee a tech (cept maybe the super since like if you see the super flash you can just mash and get out) But you have the normal tech window on the regular command grab, so you can probably still get people with them, I’ve seen people do that with Bang’s command grab,.

UPDATE:
We have to get the required I/O board from Japan. This is a killer, and I would guess early next week now for Blazblue to Acme. I will post here the day it goes out so you will have a heads up.

Its all good Bill. Thanks for putting in all the effort. I’ll be there when you get it up.

Just checking in for an update; don’t mean to bother you, but I’m rather anxious to spend money and make you feel very sound in your decision. :slight_smile:

wasnt there 24 hours ago, first thing i did was check once i checked in at my company’s holiday party

Wow, wrong thread -_-

Just checking in for an update. Also, if anyone’s found any BB cabinets in Washington, please let us know. X_X

Update: The I/O board has been sourced, and is shipping to us now. The hope is that the game will make it to Acme by this Friday.

God damn I’m excited for this. If it came out before Friday it’d probably rape my exam scores -__-

A bit off topic, but I have PS2->Wii stick converters and Tatsunoko coming if anyone wants some games in U-District.

edit: and omfg <3 to whoever repped me. I’ll let you play with my sticks anytime (???*)?

I finish my finals on wednesday. Lets gooooooo!

YES!
Blazblue is finally all together and at Acme. It was set up today. Enjoy!

Well just in time! Finished finals today so I have alllllll of tommorow to myself.

I’ll check it out

Okay, I have never played a guilty gear game for more than five minutes, is there any noob-friendly resources for how to play this game?

dustloop.com has a blazblue section, its got lots of good info.

Thanks Ross. How is this game different from GG?

I just got back from Acme bowl. GGS everyone, that place kicks ass.

It actually feels suprisingly different from guilty gear, it feels waaayyy less floaty to me. The wakeup game kind reminds me of Tekken, and each character is really cook and unique.

Jin’s normals are SLLOOWWWWW too, he plays nothing like ky.

Also, Arakune is a bitch.

This game feels great. I can’t believe how unique all of the characters play. ArcSystems really does some amazing stuff.

I was definately suprised by how unique the characters were.

Totally gonna be back for more tommorow before work at 6

mvco, can we get the D button (I think its blue on your cabinet) put in a second place so we can choose which layout we like.

so yours is ABCD but from watching vids I know there is a choice to have it that way or

abc
d

which I think would be nice and a little more ergonomic. Thanks again btw, you rock. Portland will be up sunday I believe.
