Please, please, please. Because Ubisoft bungled the port for the original, this game will not get ported at all unless YOU GUYS do it. The original reached platinum status in Japan. The game CAN sell well and I KNOW you guys can make it work here. Now that people in the US are finally aware of the series' existence, a surprising amount of players are pining for this game. You are the only hope that we have to see G.Rev's gorgeous (and metrosexual) art plastered on our HD screens. PS You guys like fighters, right? You guys like shmups, right? Well this game is BOTH.

It's a visual novel though. By all means, release it in a downloadable form and release it over PSN only if you have to (no one will mind since it's a visual novel), but I really want to see it released. The artwork is amazing and it looks so... in-depth. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-5YQ1ztdZg&feature=related">Trailer can be seen here</a> Come on, I'm begging for this one!

A: The official release date is July 27, 2010 Q: How much will the game cost? A: MSRP is $39.99. Q: What is the region coding on BlazBlue CS Xbox 360 / PS3? A: The PS3 version is region free. You can play the US version of BBCS 360 on a US/Asian Xbox 360 which means it will not play in a European or Japanese Xbox 360. Sorry :( Additional note: The Japanese version will not run on a non-Japanese 360. Q: Will there be a Limited Edition? A: Short answer: No. Long answer: We really did want to make a fantastical LE, but due to time constraints and production lead times, it just wasn't meant to be. Sure we could have slapped together some crappy branded merchandise and threw it in a box, but you guys deserve better than that. You’ll just have to live with buying the game for the paltry sum of $39.99. Q: Will there be DLC characters? A: Yes, indeedy! Makoto was just recently announced in this week’s Famitsu. Watch this space for updates to when she’ll be released and for future DLC characters. For you conspiracy theorists, Makoto is NOT on the BlazBlue: Continuum Shift disc nor are any of the future DLC characters, so you’re not just purchasing simple unlock code. Q: What languages are in the game? A: The US version will contain both English and Japanese voice overs. The Japanese version of BBCS will only have Japanese text and voices, except for battle call-outs, which will support English lines when playing against people playing the US version. Q: What new stuff is in the game? A: - 3 new modes (in addition to all the modes from Calamity Trigger), Challenge Mode, Tutorial, Legion (sort of it was in the PSP version of the game) - 3 new characters for the home console version (Hazama, Tsubaki, Mu-12) - All-new story mode, with English voice-overs and cinematics - Nu is back as an unlimited character. Q: Will the game run in native 1080p? A: No. The art and sprites are created at 720p resolution. Q: Will the game modes from Calamity Trigger be returning? A: Yes. All of them. Q: How will DLC character compatibility work? A: On release day, an automatic patch will be released that adds Makoto to be played against, but not as (unless you buy the DLC, of course). Q: How will the in-game unlockables be unlocked? A: Just like in CT: by playing the game. Q: Are Easy Specials still around? A: Easy Specials are, technically, gone, replaced by "Beginner Mode". Beginner Mode is even simpler than Easy Specials--if such as thing can be. It's not that simple to explain, though, so that'll have to wait. This also means that the right thumb-stick is not essentially useless as anything other than a thumb-rest. Q: Will Nu have a new story mode in CS? A: No. Q: What is the deal with Unlimited Lambda/Nu? A: Unlimited Lambda is basically Lambda with Nu's moves, or Nu with Lambda's moves, depending on how you look at it, and is just called "Nu" on the select screen. She's also more powerful in general (has all the Unlimited properties. Q: Will there be awards or unlocks for completing Challenges, Story Mode, or Arcade Mode? A: Doing these things will unlock items in Gallery Mode (as well as achievements/trophies), and beating Story Mode unlocks Mu-12 as a playable character. Q: Will all the Unlimited versions of every character (besides the DLC characters obviously) be available without purchasing them via DLC? A: Yes, they can be unlocked through normal gameplay--by which I mean it's really, really hard. You can also buy them, if you suck too much. Q: What, if any, changes have been made to the online component of Continuum Shift? A: A "train while you wait" feature has been added, allowing the host of a room to practice their moves in Training Mode while they wait for other players to join, instead of just staring at an empty lobby. Hooray! A number of new game/find game filters have been added as well. Q: Can the game be played full-screen (without letter-boxing) on a 4:3 display? A: No. The game is created and designed to function in 16:9--forcing it to 4:3 would break the mechanics and many of the moves. Q: Will the extra colors purchased for CT via XBL or PSN, carry over to CS? A: No. Q: Will Nu (aka Unlimited Lambda) retain her special battle voice against Ragna? A: No. Q: Will there be an option for alternate character announcer voices? A: Yes, there will be a DLC pack available to add some new announcer voices. Carl, Jin, and Taokaka's Japanese voice actors provide these new voices. Each actor has two version--a Japanese one and an "English" one. There will be no alternate voice packs with the English voice actors. Q: Who gets Astral Finishes and new Specials? A: All characters from CT retain their Astral Finishes, although the inputs may have changed. New characters get Astral Finishes. All characters get new Specials. Q: Are any old characters (characters from CT) getting new Astral Finishes/Heats? A: No. Q: Can you pit CPU characters against one another. A: No. Q: Will the Button Change option be available in online matches? A: Yes. Q: Will be tied to user accounts and limited in the way they are limited in CT? A: Yes, the replay functionality is exactly the same as in CT. See <a href="http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/topic/685/page/2?replies=47#post-6638">this post</a> for a few more details. Q: Can you choose voice options (Japanese vs. English) on a per-character basis? A: No, they are either all English, or all Japanese. Q: Will there be paid DLC to unlock Mu-12, if you don't feel like completing story mode to unlock her? A: Yes. Q: How manage trials/challenges does each character have? A: Each character has 10, but some have multiple parts. Q: Will the re-balancing patch change damage scaling and heat gain? Or will it actually change move properties and the potential to complete certain combos? A: Only Mori knows, and he isn't telling. Q: Have the graphics been changed at all from the arcade version? A: No. Q: Will Mu-12 be playable in online, ranked matches? A: Yes. Q: In versus and online matches, after each person has picked their character, will Player 1 still be able to choose the theme and area for the battle like in CT? A: Yes. Q: Will Mu-12 be playable in online, ranked matches? A: Yes. Q: Will you still be required to lose in order to reach 100% completion? A: You will need to lose to open certain paths, but you won't have to lose any battles where losing would take you to a Game Over screen. You will still see a few lines sometimes after loosing and going to a Game Over screen, but you aren't required to see these lines to get 100% completion. Q: Will the console version have the arcade version's button layout switch (ABCD and DABC) option in addition to the manual button config option? A: No. Q: How long is story mode? Will it play the same way CT's did? A: It does play the same way. Each individual character's story mode is about the same length as in CT, but there are now more characters. Q: Will there be more episodes of "Teach Me Ms. Litchi"? A: Yes. Q: Will there be another True Ending for story mode? A: Yes. Q: Can I play music off my PS3 while playing the game (instead of the in-game music)? A: No. Q: Do Astral Heats and Unlimited characters still need to be unlocked? A: Astral heats to not need to be unlocked, but Unlimited characters do. You can also buy unlock DLC for the Unlimited characters, if you don't feel like unlocked them in-game. Q: Will there be more or less animated cut scenes than in CT? A: You'll just have to wait and see. ;) Q: Will there be downloadable colors/costumes during launch or the near future? A: We are looking into that. Q: Will the menus have different music? A: Nope, same as CT. Q: With some other more popular characters in BlazBlue in high fan demand, what made the developers decide to release Makoto as the first DLC character? A: She was chosen for reasons of story relevance. Q: How difficult is it to get the 100 Missions in Challenge Mode trophy/achievement? A: If you don't know how to play fighting games, basically impossible. It should also offer a nice challenge, even for skilled BlazBlue players. Q: Can Nu be recruited in Legion mode, even if she isn't unlocked/purchased? A: Yes, but only in Legion Mode. To use her elsewhere, you have to buy/unlcock her. Q: Will there be an option to use CT stages and CT versions of characters in CS? A: Stages, yes, characters, no. Q: Can you select "Restart Match" at the end of a Versus match? A: No. Q: Will there be a Legion Versus mode? A: No. Q: Will Jubei be available as a DLC character? A: Only in my dreams. Q: Will we be able to see Tao's face at any point in the game? A: Only if your heart is pure. Q: Will there be any way to get the BBCS soundtrack in North America? A: We have no plans for that at this time. Q: What will Tutorial Mode be like? A: It is similar to the DVD, but more interactive--you are told about a mechanic, then test it out. Q: Will the patch that allows Makoto and other DLC characters to be played against allow players to face them offline without paying for them? A: No. Q: What can you tell us about Makoto? Is her drive like Tsubaki's? A: I can only tell you that she is a true lady, worthy of your respect, and that her drive is not like Tsubaki's. Q: Are there any plans for patches beyond the one that's already been announced? A: Not at this time. Q: Will there be BB:CS themes/avatar/etc for PS3/360? A: We are looking into this. Q: What's the main difference between Tutorial Mode and Challenge Mode? A: Tutorial Mode is for education, Challenge Mode is for people who need a challenge, and doesn't really "teach" you anything apart from combos. Q: Does each character have their own tutorial, or do you have to use Ragna for all of them? A: For the basic tutorial, yes, you do use Ragna for the entire thing, but there are individual, character-specific tutorials. Q: Will the HD install eliminate "Now Loading" screens? A: No, although it should make them shorter. Q: How does CS deal with "ragequiting"? A: Pretty much the same way that the (current) patched version of CT does. Q: Will Makoto DLC be released in the US on the same day as in Japan? A: We are cautiously optimistic that it will be. Q: Is there an option to "retry" a lost battle in Story Mode? A: Unless it's story-related, yes. Q: How many stages will CS have? A: There will be 29 in total, including old stages from CT. Q: Is the "training stage" with grid lines available as an option in random stage select? A: We're not sure. Q: Will there be an in-game way to track wins/losses against specific players? A: No. Q: Would/will the game support custom soundtracks as DLC? A: No, currently the architecture of the game wouldn't support that. Q: Will Nu-13 be playable online? A: Only is Player Match rooms where Unlimited Characters are enabled. Q: I, [Internet Denizen], heard a rumor that Kokonoe's voice actor recorded alternate announcer lines for BBCS. Will these be available as DLC? A: No. Q: Have any of the voice actors been changed for CS? A: No. Q: Will Mu-12 get her own story mode once she has been unlocked. A: No. Q: Do your characters get stronger after fights in Legion Mode (ala Guilty Gear's Survival Mode)? A: No. Q: Will alternate voices play during online matches? A: You should hear them, but your opponent will hear whatever their console is set to. Q: Can DLC characters be blocked from online rooms? A: After a fashion, yes. In Player Matches, the host creating the room can set the "System Version". If this is set to 1.00, that will block all DLC characters from that room. Q: Will Mu-12 appear in Score Attack mode? A: No. Q: When fighting Unlimited Ragna and Unlimited Hazama in Score Attack, will they use their arcade moves, or their new Unlimited moves/traits? A: They will use the new stuff. Q: Will there be a demo? A: No. Q: Why is Makoto not on the disc as an unlock? A: She was not finished when the game was. Because of the way the submission process works, the game itself has to be finished significantly before the actual release date, while supplementary content--DLC, patches, etc--doesn't. This is the same reason many games have day-one patches--in order for the game to be released on time, the final, or "master", version of the game has to be submitted months prior to the released date. The company behind the game can continue developing things during this time which don't require the same submission/approval process. This is why although it appears as though the Makoto DLC and Continuum Shift were both "ready to go" at the same time, they weren't. Q: My question is what will Makoto play like? A: Short-range combat with a lot of tools. Not particularly fast, but hits hard. Q: Will anything (trophies, unlocks, saves, etc) from the Japanese version carry over to the US version? A: No. Q: Will anything from Calamity Trigger carry over to Continuum Shift? A: No. Q: Will CS have a Gallery Mode? A: Yes. Q: Will Kotoko's new song be played in the background when someone uses their Astral Heat? A: Yes. Q: Will there be a version of BBCS for the PSP? A: We're not sure. Q: Will certain timing issues with voiced lines be fixed? A: Due to the way the game is localized and produced, lines are often recorded before the in-game timings have been finalized. This means that some are cut off--usually during combos or similar things. Q: Will DLC characters get tutorials in Tutorial Mode? A: Yes. Q: Will there be an option for color editing? A: No. Q: Will there be any way of fighting the DLC characters as offline opponents in any mode with the computer controlling them? A: You can fight them in Versus or Training Mode, but they won't show up in Arcade, Legion, or Score Attack as opponents. Q: Can the music that plays during Astral Finishes be turned off? A: Yes. Q: When playing Ranked Matches, will your percent be calculated the same way it is in Calamity Trigger, or will each character have their own ranked percent? A: It will be the same as CT, with a main and sub. Q: Which modes will DLC characters be playable in? A: Score Attack, Online, Practice, Versus, Challenge, and Tutorial. You will not be able to play as the DLC characters in Story Mode or Arcade Mode. Q: What is the reason for the July 27th release date (in other words, why is the US release after the Japanese release)? A: The Japanese version does not have English text or voices (aside from battle shouts). Translating, localizing, and recording the English content requires additional time. Q: Will there be any day 1 DLC? A: Yes, Unlimited Character unlock DLC will be available day 1. Q: Can the announcer voice be set to random (so that you get a different announcer, at random, for each match)? A: No. Gaming King on "Jin is dead.

Do you enjoy the BB story? How do you think it ranks as a overall fighting game?(I like it ;) ) What do you hope returns and what improvements do you think should be made in BBCS. What new playable characters are you looking forward to using(in game and DLC). What do you hope for the future of the Blazblue series.

I know the timing of the character, when to hit the next button in a combo and so forth. For whatever reason, the timing is completely off for Litchi in your new version, CS. Normal BnB combos that I know translate from CT to CS aren't working under the CT timing. It's frustrating thinking you know a character and then having to re-learn everything over again from scratch. Take this BnB for instance. B,C,HCF D,C,7*QCF C,2C*,9B,C,D,66*(airdash),B,C,6C,DP,6C,2C. I've dropped the combo at every * because of the new timing. A combo I've been successfully executing for a year. I'm nearly at the point of returning the game after so much frustration. Why did you do this? xKonsentox on "What other games do you think Aksys should pick up?" http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/topic/431#post-3736 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 19:32:34 +0000 xKonsentox 3736@http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/ Alright so here is a pretty straightforward thread. What games so you think Aksys should bring to the United States? I have a few games I think would be neat to make stateside... <a href="http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-20oi-71-el-49-en-84-j-70-3n3w.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-20oi-71-el-49-en-84-j-70-3n3w.html</a> Akatsuki no Amaneka to Aoi Kyojin ^ A strategy game that is coming out for XBOX 360. I have no clue who published it in Japan, but I have it reserved and I think it might get the attraction of the same people that liked Agarest. <a href="http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-el-49-en-70-3qfy.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-el-49-en-70-3qfy.html</a> Chaos;Head Noah ^ A adventure game that sort of plays out like a a manga, or a dating sim, but its story revolves around a mystery of the world the characters live in. The game is a very Mature rated title (getting an adult rating in Japan) and would be a great game to try out in America. only problem is there is not much interaction from the player, you are really only along for the story like you are reading a manga or watching anime. <a href="http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-20oi-71-br-49-en-15-Mushihimesama+Futari-84-j-70-3cq6.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-20oi-71-br-49-en-15-Mushihimesama+Futari-84-j-70-3cq6.html</a> Mushihimesama Futari Version 1.5 ^ We are already getting Deathsmiles for America, so why not have Mushi join the fun? Sure the Japanese game IS region free, however the steep price tag of the Japanese game is sort of scary. Its a great game and I believe deserves a stateside release also. I can't put down my copy of the game! So now its your turn... What game would you want Aksys games to publish in the States?

Fail!" http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/topic/751#post-7768 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 23:09:45 +0000 RenegadeOverlord 7768@http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/ ok....... Lets start with im an idiot. I bought the CS thinking there were going to be 6 new characters. I knew they were DLC, but i thought they were free. Really who charges for characters right? Low and behold.... they arent. SSFF was 40 bucks and it had all the character with it. Every fighting game until now has. Fail. I feel that I was duped. It is my fault for not checking, but why should i have to. Thank for nickel and diming me. It shows you what you think of your customers and fans. Ill just go back to ssff and wait for mvc3. Blaze Blue and your company's products are dead to me. How could I trust you in the future.

Unfortunately, I keep getting killed by Venus the Unknown Gladiatress. Has anybody beat her yet? If so, what stats did you have? Even though she keeps beating me, I'm not getting too frustrated because the after scene is very nice! MikelAL93 on "The King of Fighters XIII anyone?" http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/topic/689#post-6741 Sat, 26 Jun 2010 17:44:58 +0000 MikelAL93 6741@http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/ Okay, since this game is coming out in 18 days on Japanese arcades, I think that it would be a good time to talk about it. Okay, it seems that Ignition is not going to do business with SNK anymore (Since Atlus published Metal Slug XX and XSEED published Samurai Shodown: Sen), I will like to see Aksys publish The King of Fighters XIII. If you can do it Aksys, I'd appreciate it if it came out in the fall of this year, because I plan to get this game for my birthday in January. Ignition didn't do crap when publishing KOF XII, and the games that Ignition localized (Lux-Pain, Arc Rise Fantasia) contain terrible translations (Arc Rise Fantasia contains bad voice acting as well). I want Aksys to do KOF XIII because I know that they will actually localize the game, translate the game's story, and hire prolific voice actors for the game. You can learn more about the game at: <a href="http://snk.wikia.com/wiki/The_King_of_Fighters_XIII">SNK Wiki's KOF XIII article</a> Discuss your hype, thoughts, suggestions, rants, speculation and Voice Actor ideas (If Aksys considers English voice acting for the game) here.

I was with a friend when I first saw the box at a local GameStop, we saw that on the back of the box, you had the tag line from the blog entry introducing it: "Deathsmiles on everyone. Lolis smile back." We thought that was hilarious. Also probably the only time either of us has seen that word used on a game box. Trailblazing! What made you decide to use that slogan, and will we see something similar on Arcana Heart 3? And congratulations on becoming the Official Lolilicious US Publisher. XD 2. Aren't only half or so of them lolis, though? I know that the game gives their ages, but my friend, a huge shmup/loli fan who has the game, wouldn't tell me. What are the characters and their ages? Bonus: What's with these weird typos I'm seeing? I'm going through Tutorial in Continuum Shift. The one I just saw was so bad I think it might have been a glitch. Speaking of which, someone give me a good video converter so I can convert my widescreen GP3 videos of an epic Family Pirate Party glitch and put them together into a single video on Movie Maker. :3 Gaming King on "Hi, I'm back, guys! ...Sorry I pissed you off, Beli-san. :(" http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/topic/749#post-7754 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 21:21:50 +0000 Gaming King 7754@http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/ Do ya forgive me?

We're talking about a whole minute of difference in the time that it takes to complete a stage in each version. The Japanese version was nearly arcade-perfect in terms of its slowdown, so this is a definite flaw. Is Aksys aware of this issue, and are you going to fix it? kuja86 on "SNK (Playmore) vs Arc System (Aksys)" http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/topic/178#post-1642 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 05:28:12 +0000 kuja86 1642@http://www.aksysgames.com/forums/ I posted this idea also at the SNK USA/Ignition Forum: <a href="http://forums.ignitionusa.net/showthread.php?t=958" rel="nofollow">http://forums.ignitionusa.net/showthread.php?t=958</a> Bring the best of Both world's.

Just throwing that out there. Would be cool to see Aksys in Chi-Town this August. blahxkyou on "Record of Agarest War PILLOW CASE!!

Yes, so I happen to own the 2 Record of Agarest War pillow cases that was auctioned off by Aksys at Anime Expo. Pretty much the only 2 that were sold overseas, one of Dyshana and other of Valeria. I'm pretty fond of the Dyshana one so I'm selling just Valeria. This is unopened, brand new, fresh from AX couple days ago and I'm willing to sell it relatively cheap. Body pillows go about 130~150 dollars...but I'm willing to sell it off to anyone who is interested and wants it for a reasonable price. Remember, this is a rare body pillow that isn't mass produced and sold in the US. Particularly, those who didn't have a chance at it since they live too far to attend AX and whatnot. I will ship this item, preferably inside the US. However, I will have to charge for shipping as that money comes out of my own pocket. Hope you understand. <a href="http://www.aksysgames.com/2010/06/25/agarest-war-body-pillowcases-auction-at-anime-expo/"> PICS!</a> ------------------------------------------ While I do like my Dyshana and the package has been opened (by Aksys when they gave it to me to show me how the front and back looked like), it is still brand new and if you guys wave enough money in front of my face, I'll consider selling that also. Don't be thinking I'm like a retail store or whatever where prices are set. I'm more than open to prices below the amount I've suggested and also willing to let someone else outbid anyone else's offer. - Kyorin E-mail offers to: <a href="mailto:blahxkyou@lavabit.com">blahxkyou@lavabit.com</a> (Subject should be "RoAW Pillow Case")
