With all the hype around Street Fighter IV: Giant Dragon Penis Edition you might have missed another up and coming fighting game from the makers of the Guilty Gear / Accent Core folks called BlazBlue - a PS3 network exclusive that made its official debut this year at AOU in Japan. The game is set in the same Guilty Gear universe ten years after XX and will bring some solace to those whose panties are not dripping for SF IV, including yours truly. The game is also set to hit arcades on the Taito Type X2 board, presuming your city still has one of those.
Check out the round-up of videos, scans, and screen shots we've found on the ps3 forums and our community blogs. Three more videos after the jump.
Thanks, Y0j1mb0!

mmmhhh
Everything looks great.
I look forward to this and Basara Cross X more than I do SFIV now. These look so much more promising.
Oh, guess I'll need a PS3 first...
go go psthree!
Thank god its on PS3 because if it was on the 360 man that D-pad is horrible.
But the 3d Guilty Gear is some RTS Dynasty Warriors thing, it doesn't count.
Good lord, I want to play this game so bad. This along with KOFXII is making the year great 2d-wise. You suppose we'll see any guilty gear fighters as hidden characters?
Heh, "Calamity Trigger". I hope that they keep the SLASH text when you win a fight. :D
IMPORTANT QUESTION!
Can the PS3 use any controllers other than the SixAxis/DualShock3? This is important, because the d-pad on those things is worth absolute SHIT for a 2d fighting game. If not, this isn't much better than trying to play a 2d fighter on 360...
This game could rock,but at what price?,also there's just a few charas (not 4 but the "NOT"s on the screen)..hope there's unlockable..we need MOAR BOOBS N PANTIES :P...
Bastards better release it on 360 though. Or maybe the wii, cuz I bought an arcade stick for my wii to play Accent Core..
Backrounds are holy shit awesome though.
Sure, it's essentially a "sequel" to Guilty Gear which in theory means it should be awesome but honestly, NONE of those characters look as good as ANY of the characters in Guilty Gear.
That Vega girl could be ok, but everyone else just looks uninspired and boring. I'm not saying I won't buy the game but after seeing the awesomeness that the Guilty Gear team can make (SOOO many well designed characters), you'd think you'd see a little bit of that carry over in to the next game.
I mean, seriously, they all just look like DIRECT knock-offs of past Guilty Gear chaarcters.
As for BlazBlue, I just hope there are more than 10 characters (which is what the selection screen is making it out to be), because I don't want to play World Warrior again (yes yes I know it was eight).
Looks like I better start saving my pennies.
anyway this is my first and most wanted fighting game :)
