Good lord that’s just fucking beautiful.

Someone a few pages back says it looks like Guilty Gear III: 3rd Strike, and I’ll throw my chips in with that.

Can anyone from the location tests confirm how much of your Barrier meter gauge is expended when you perform a Force Parry Burst Cancel? :looney:

so wait? X360 won’t be getting this?

You can only use the Barrier Burst once per round. It doesn’t use up any meter it seems.

Probably not.

OOP-AWWWW

is there a locke test for this tomorrow?

Weapon X

wow…rachel sure does have very few moves

and I guess that Taokakas “Hissatsu Neko Makyuu!” its something like Mist Finner…but without the cancel part…mm…interesting

Ok, so i know little to nothing about this game, but i watched a trailer on YouTube and i gotta say…i Know its a next gen game and all (and from what i understand the first big 2D next gen) But, the video i watched didnt impress me much. it seems like just still playing GG would be funner. So i gotta ask. Whats so awsome about that game? (not trying to sound like a hater, just wondering whats so great about it other than NG graphics)

After watching a Tekken match, they saw how desperately people tried to stand back up from a knockdown and thought it would be pretty cool to throw in to a 2D style fighter.

Yeah, the Tekken knockdown system is the biggest difference right now, and I think it will be very interesting. That’s the reason this isn’t HD guilty Gear with a few system differences. The Tekken Oki system rocks!

so, when does the loke test start today?

Loketest is probably happening right now, it’s about 10:30PM over there.

good i really need a fix… i’m feenin over here

I’m really into Taokaka’s design. I want this game now =(

No vids on youtube yet, I’d check nicovideo but I can’t access it at work.

ARGH MUST HYPE

i also checked nico…there’s nothing up currently

So is there a grappler-type in this game?
