Imagine how popular Ken would be if he wasn't low to mid tier and had a useless ultra... hopefully the Ken in the second revision of SF IV is closer to SF III 3rd Strike than SF IV.

anyways, i hate that bitch that uses lightning, fought her on Arcade and jesus.. so cheap....

Joke are supposed to amuse people, not to offend them. Keep on the unfunny joke won't amuse anyone.
But I'm not here to argue with people about joke.

Is Nu-13 good? I heard she's kinda broken, but I don't fully trust my source so it's better to ask here.

She's good as long as you know how to keep your distance as she does not take hits well.

[Westlo]

She's the Akuma of this game, learn to zone and your health is the lowest.

its not my fault he took the joke/sarcasm the wrong way. he could easly make the sig better by rotating the picture of her more to the right , cleavage and head shot in the pic, twice the coolness.

but its w.e, idc anymore

Correct, I cut her off to show the tattoo and where it's located on her body (in the image, she's even opening her shirt more to show it). This mark is important to Noel's story and her connection to the opening movie for story mode.

Spoiler:

Noel is obviously the little girl with the same tattoo who survives the disaster in the opening movie. Noel is connected to the cauldrons and was also experimented on (which is obvious in her opening flashback). She is also an android like Nu-13.

Jokes aside, when I first looked at that artwork of Noel, I thought it was just a sexy image of her too. But apparently there is more meaning behind it then just cleavage.

[Kyero Fox]

wait, the tat? ........ oh damn, I hardly noticed that by screen is kinda small, im stuck on my laptop for a while ><

>< sorry

Well there is a two-disc soundtrack which contains 48 tracks. I've only listened to about 20 of them and so far there hasn't been a single track I dislike. There is also a niffty bonus disc with tutorials (like character specific strategies).

Tell me more about it.

It is alright. It is a DVD with the chick from IGN talking about the game and some strategies. And a two disc soundtrack, which is very good. The packaging is nice overall.

Got my copy today, with the Art Book. The Art Book looks cheap. It's not even hardback, it's just glossy paper, front to back.

Jin and Noel are definitely the Ken of this game. So many noobs spanning DP attacks with Jin and drive attacks with Noel.

Here's some plot spoilers from the dust loop forums for the plot and main character endings. See the last couple pages of this thread.

Spoiler:

When Ragna beats Nu-13 the first time they merge (she has the other half of the Azure Grimoire). They get thrown back a 100 years and become the Black Beast.

Jin tries to stop them, also gets sucked back, but Rachel intervenes and gives him the Susanoo unit, transforming him into Hakumen, the White Samurai who leads the 6 heroes against the Black Beast.

Yada yada yada... beat the game with all the characters and you get the true ending.

The wheel of fate stops turning. After you win with Ragna again, instead of fusing with Nu, Rachel shows up with Noel. Noel and Nu are both clones of, Ragna and Jin's dead sister, Saya (her death is why they don't get along, may also be the reason for Jin's memory problems). So nobody merges (Nu dies maybe, I'm not sure on that), queue happy ending right? Wrong-Noel's boss from the Library shows up, turns out he's the Big Bad who is behind everything. He tries to activate the same satellite laser that blew up Ikagaru City during the 2nd War (when Noel is created in the opening scene). But Rachel swoops in and saves the day again with a big psychic shield (Tsukuyomi Unit-Moon God-cause she looks like a Rabbit, get it? haha) So the cast gets away from the Library guy. Library guy tells Noel's friend Tsubaki to add Noel and Jin to the wanted list along with Ragna.

And that's how the game ends. Weird, even for an Arksys game, yeah?

[Shinoto]

Got my free copy today, played about 45minutes of it, Loved it. The perfect fighter for me...outside getting a bit of a headache while playing.

Tried out Litch and Noel, Litch was okay...Noel was love. The Gun-Fu style straight out of Equalibrum is awesomeness. I definitely think she is going be my favorite character to play.

You would have to clear all ten characters in story mode to unlock Hakumen and V-13 story. Once you clear Hakumen and V-13 story mode you will unlock True Story Mode.

(Hakumen is a beast.)

PS3 version of BlazBlue LE must be selling well worldwide. Because my supplier met my initial demand quantity of 30 piece for the 360 LE, they cut my initial demand of PS3 LE from 50 to a measly 5, LOL.

[MakubeX2]

Snapshot of the bonuse contents :-


Kinda cheap that they didn't even provide a listing for the soundtracks :-


But at $24 in local currency, I can't complain much.

[Westlo]

Okay maining Noel, had a blast playing her for an hour.
