Frankly, I don't remember seeing that many defensive Hakumen, though. He has those awesome pokes to help his offensive, so it's kinda a waste to not use them.

Personally, I'm more hype with the 3vs3 online mode.
You can't get more YuyuHakusho'er than that...

And no, can't even compare with KOF. :|

Hakumen's only solid pokes are 4c and j.c (this poke doesn't even lead into a combo), the rest are either too slow or lack the range to be actually called pokes for my taste. Most of his a and b normals are +x on block, so he is quite safe when playing offensively at close range and he has his counters to punish sloppy rushdowns or mixup attempts to play defensively

Not really a BlazBlue post but Guilty Gear x2 Reload is now available on Good Old Games.

[Sheba]

My advice would be to wait for Guilty Gear X2 Accent Core, since you'll have pretty much everyone, including ABA and Order Sol, who is one of my favorite characters to play. If they release Accent Core Plus, even better.

Still awaiting my BBCSE.

I really hope it's worth the buy.

There goes my money.

I wish I wasn't in Europe, urgh... I don't get why we still have a different cover for the game (and no offense to the many fans of it, but I find the LE edition particularly uninspiring and ugly), and with a subpar OST disc (song interlude itself is quite minimalistic in content).
Well "at least" we still got a LE, but the choices in general are quite weird if you ask me, after the good job they have done with CS (aside the cover/disc design which is probably the most ugly art change I've seen for a while).

Given that I never bought calamity trigger, it'll be worth it for me just for that.

1. It's already on the disc, just locked out. Also, ASW would not allow such an advantage for one region to have over another. Europe only got all the CT DLC for free because of how extremely late the game was released.

2. No it can't. Disc-based games have to have their content locked down 2 months before release because of certification processes, after that the only changes that are allowed to be made until they enter mass production are bug fixes.

I think I've lost my track here. Could someone be nice enouch to tell me when does the complete edition with all DLC stuff already in disc comes out?

14th February for North American and 24th February for Europe.

[Duo Maxwell]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it only include all the DLC of BBCS2, not the current ones (like Rachel and Platinum announcer), right?

I think you're right.
I read somewhere that those were only japanese DLC... Must find a source, though.

They're only Japanese DLC for now. They'll be released in NA and Europe after the game comes out in those regions.

Personally don't care for announcer DLC, not that I mind it existing but it's too cosmetic for my tastes.

Ah. I though this edition of Blazblue wasn't suppose to have DLC.
But here it is !

Fair enough. I won't get it either for the same reasons...

As far as we can tell, it won't have character DLC. There's no placeholders for characters on the disc this time. This doesn't mean there won't be character DLC for Extend though, they clearly left space in the menus for 2 extra characters.

With Mori stating that's he's gearing up to make BlazBlue 3, I'm guessing Extend is the last iteration of Continuum Shift.

Hopefully !
But if they really want to, they still got several non-playable characters in their bag (Jubei, Phantom, Saya, Kokonoe...)

Thanks, it's also going to be for the XBOX 360, right?

Anything to replace the current announcer. Rachel and Platinum one is a plus.
