The SRK Blazblue General Discussion Thread

This game looks pretty bad ass, the only thing that bugs me a bit is the idea that it’s gonna be PS3 only. Sad day for us 360 owners. Guess I’ll just have to find some other way to play it.

I was thinking Blahz-Blue. Like blah with a z at the end.

The katakana indicates that it is pronounced “blay-blue”. The z is silent for some reason.

It’s just the Japs trying to make something sound French. Flenchgrish comes out much worse than Engrish though.

I’ll call it BlazeBlue, I don’t care what anybody says

as english speakers we can still call it blazeblue, like we don’t call street fighter 4 “SUTORITO FAITA FOH!”. if the japanese can’t pronounce english words very well its their problem…

amen brothers, BLAZEBLUE forever

:rofl:

Or, “GUILTEE-A GEER EX-SU EX-SU”!!!

It’s official, BLAZEBLUE is the title name for the game :tup:

If the japs don’t like it, then its their fault because they can’t pronounce their own game title!!

Does the word even translate into Blaze?

… They could pronounce it Blazeblue if they wanted.

joke killa

I’m going with “Blah-z blue”…“Blae Blue”…no that doesn’t even sound cool.

Eh? What word? The title is BlazBlue. The katakana is just how Arc System Works writes it in Japanese. Katakana is used to transliterate foreign, non-Chinese words. So, whether or not “BlazBlue” translates to “Blaze Blue” is really up to you to decide, I guess. I wouldn’t really expect anyone who’s not Japanese to pronounce it as anything other than Blaze Blue, regardless of whether or not they speak Japanese. I still don’t have any love for people for pronounce I-no as “eye know”, however.

… yeah. I actually meant to quote a different (related) post, but it would still apply.

Go me. :bluu:

Am I the only one who finds this game (and GG) really ugly? I think this shit was actually developed by Hot Topic.

You should probably wipe the shit covering your eyes and then look again… cus nigga you crazy! Unless you’re the guy who thinks Super Mario Brothers looks better than modern 360 games. :looney:

As for pronouncing the name for BlazBlue, I started off calling it “Blaze Blue”, was told that was incorrect by my Japanese friends, and now I just say it in Japanese to avoid confusion. Besides, “bure~ buru” sounds better than “blay blue” I guess. :lol:

definetly you have eyesight problems, maybe you are blind or like the previous post says you maybe have shit covering your eyes, both games are pure gold, blazblue with kof XII are the ones that make 2008 a great year

amen hermano

The character designs of GG have always been fantastically top-notch, but I do admit the Blazblue character designs are kinda “cheap shounen anime” status, but I’m not hating. The game is still unbelievably gorgeous and is made by one of my favorite 2D fighter companies. I CAN’T hate.

KOFXII does look amazing and I’ll try this game, but it’s a matter of preference not pixel count. I’m just saying why does all the interface need to have thorns comming out of it and shit.
