Oh, man, I was seriously XDing at that Kenshin vs. Hideyoshi vid. Calling in Kasuga to help him with that one super caused a cut in where the two love birds had a moment. I really like that.
That said…GYAT DAMN. This game looks vicious, and yet so much in the way of fun, too.
And yes, 4r5. I knew that you and Nobunaga were destined to be together! And you doubted me! 
Is anyone else reminded of Raoh when watching Hideyoshi?
That’s…kinda the point. :wgrin:
BASARA’s Hideyoshi is practically a clone of Raoh in a lot of respects. Everybody gets the obvious inspiration. In fact, I believe Tian told me that an Arcadia magazine review stated that he was a character to be played by those “who have no REGRETS!”
Besides…it wouldn’t be the first time that Capcom (as well as others, like SNK and ASW too) drew inspiration from old school manga like Jojo or HnK.
For example, SF’s Guile himself is, in a lot of ways, can be described as a composite of basically two characters who appeared in the Jojo manga, Dire and Stroheim. At the least, that’s where you can say Capcom got the idea for Guile’s hairstyle from.
sounds like him too. and has a similar loop
i know this is all about basara characters…but because nobunaga is in this i would’ve liked to see samanosuke or jubei in this game…i think i’ll main nobunaga or mouri…
Wait Samanosuke and Yagyu Jubei from Onimusha?
That would be cool as hell.
BTW Motochika looks beastly.I just hate that it seems like it will take a while to get the perfect grade AT-AT.God forbid you suck and can’t last that long in the match.
I’m also glad to see the return of 1 hit kill moves that are comboable and can be valuable.
ugh so I have a nico account but when I try to log-in now, it brings me to some moonspeak page and I can’t watch anything so I can’t watch any of this 'cuz all my normal vid sources aren’t posting SBX vids on youtube (tian being the sole exception)
Anybody know what the problem might be?
Ugh, nothing personal, but if I could change one single thing about the game, that would be it. IMO, the Kenshin/Kasuga Engun Assist would be the most impressive technique in the game, were it not for that cheesy picture interrupting the action. To specify, my problem lies not with the picture per se, but with the way it obstructs the “flow” of the move and ruins the impact. :lame: Methinks it would have been far better to have it appear after the move is finished, and even then only if it were used to end the round.
On that note, I wish the programmers (VS series, Pocket Fighter, JoJo, more recently HnK, SBX and Arcana Heart) would curb their urge to throw in these obnoxious portraits of the characters whenever a super is activated. We KNOW who just did a Sugoi Heartful Punch, no need to fill half the screen with her mug shot, the move is more impressive by itself, you feel me?
The same applies to the background-warping super move effect seen in far too many games (the worst examples including SF3: NG/2i, KOF '00/'01 and GG:AC). We CAN figure out what happens against a normal background, it doesn’t have to turn into a swirling vortex, a raging inferno, a negative or a seizure-inducing lightshow, k? Character-specific scenery alterations, such as Kula’s Freeze Execution ice background, Lieselotte’s “crimson eye” Critical Heart motif and Gouki/Akuma’s classic SGS finish scene are more than welcome, though. :rock:
your wrong
lol you have no idea what dramatic effect is
First the “jerking off to long combos” comment regarding the KOF tag system, now this.
To quote/paraphrase Cabbie22 from White Wolf’s Hunter franchise: You know, COUM, I’m really starting to hate you. :arazz:
(This is where you reply with “Good.”) :wgrin:
And Henaki, this is just one man’s opinion, but sometimes less is more, and the sparse approach makes for a more dramatic effect than a million fireworks do.
speaking of combos this game has the dopest looking combos ive ever seen
nobunaga’s power up then mash hard slash, lancer evolution’s air combo where he just punches you in the fuckin face over and over, hideyoshis six fucking piledrivers… too good
So yeah, what is up with this game. It actually looks good. The location test videos were all incredibly boring, but these nicovid match videos look like some CRAZY AWESOME shit.
lets get the marvel heads into this…i dont play marvel, but im really cool with most of the marvel players at CF(chinatown fair)…lets get every1 into this game…shit looks hella fun and i cant wait to import this…i cant say that enough :looney:
Finally got a chance to watch some vids and damn is the game sick. Very hectic like Marvel, with the GG fluidity, and excellent gameplay. Can’t wait for this to drop on consoles. Gotta get around to that pre-order pretty soon.
Went ahead and uploaded the vids to YouTube, cause everybody needs to see this. You are now free to GET HYPE.

Much appreciated, wanted to show these to a few people and I doubt they would’ve gone through the (minor) trouble of making nico accounts.
Sorry man, but I gotta disagree, just like a number of the others.
BASARA, in itself, is a series that thrives on fanservice, the “shippy” nature of it as well as the completely “over the top” nature of the franchise (hence “BASARA”, which can mean “craziness”).
So, to me, it’s just another part of the game, just as much as when the game plays a lil clip of TM Revolution’s “Crosswise” when you land a Fatal…err…“BASARA
KO” (as you can see in a few of the vids). It’s all part of just adding some nice, dramatic touches to the game that just gives off style and such.
This whole aspect of adding a bit more “flash” has been a part of 2D fighting games since SSF2X/T introduced the “super finish flash”. So, you’re a bit late to try and start complaining about this type of thing now…
Capcom, Arcsys, or Atlus needs to release this in the US.
If Capcom didn’t try that silly “Devil Kings” angle in the first place, the BASARA’s brand status in States wouldn’t be as bad off as it is now…
Yeah that was a really silly idea =/
So Masamune’s Engun builds up SLOW, like “not even 70% after 3 rounds” slow. wtf
