European BlazBlue Limited Edition Includes Noel's Ass

[John Funk]

European BlazBlue Limited Edition Includes Noel's Ass

is just as much about showing off the *ahem* guns of NOL officer Noel Vermillion as anything seen in the art book. Probably.

The best part, and the part that makes this seem the most like a "whoops, our bad" for taking so long to release the game in Europe, is that the snazzy Limited Edition doesn't cost any more than the normal edition - you just need to preorder the game in order to upgrade.

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger is scheduled to hit Europe in mid-March, so if you want to get your hands on the art book and the DVD that teaches you how to do more with Jin Kisaragi other than just spam his ice car attack, then head on down and pre-order - or you could just do it online at any of these retailers: Play.com [http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_3_8?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=blazblue+calamity+trigger+-+limited+edition&x=0&y=0&sprefix=blazblue].

Ugh, more Noel. Seriously, everyone has a Noel fetish. I guess our fellow EU gamers deserve something for the long wait.

 

[The DSM]

Does it come out for 360 as well?

Ive been waiting for this for an eternity.

Also isnt it unfair noel has guns in a fighting game?

Im going to use Tao Kaka and Bang as they are both awesome.

With Noel, Litchi, Tao and the goth loli, its covering all bases of fanservice for most males.

I love that game. And all people who like fighting games should damn well buy this limited edition. I do suck at it online, though. But I have a really good time against the AI.

Yep, it's 360 and PS3 both.

 

[Dudeakoff]

Aww, I thought we were getting a mousemat...

But where's the extra characters I heard about when this was first announced?

 

[Korten12]

wait isnt this game already out?

 

[Dudeakoff]

wait isnt this game already out?

Being in Europe sucks sometimes.

 

[Gigaguy64]

sigh.
One of the reasons i want a 360....BlazBlue.

Iv heard nothing but praise for it.

And while i love it when the game comes with art books, hopefully Noel wont take up too much of the book.....oh well.
The art is absolutely beautiful, one of the reasons why i loved the Guilty Gear games.

Johnny FTW.

I think this edition makes up for that.

yeah funny thing, noel has guns, but has one of the most aggressive close range games in blazblue, on the other hand nu has swords and can basically lock you down at full screen. good luck with tao and bang tho, they are probably the most technical fighters in the game, not trying to discourage you here, but they are harder to learn then say ragna or jin. But trust me its well worth it, there are few greater moments than a perfectly executed tao drive loop.

Well anyway im happy that the game is coming to EU, i got it off Ebay last summer, but it will be nice to have people to play against in my own time zone... also the influx of new players should do wonders for my win ratio

 

[Sir Kemper]

Odd, i suddenly have the urge to move to europe...


Seriosuly though, nice to hear that our fellow gamers at the END of the line are getting some sort of compensation.


See what i did there?

 

[Christemo]

um, y´know its for the ps3 as well, right?

The best part, and the part that makes this seem the most like a "whoops, our bad" for taking so long to release the game in Europe, is that the snazzy Limited Edition doesn't cost any more than the normal edition - you just need to preorder the game in order to upgrade.

On Play.com the LE is £10 more. So... yeah, check before ordering.

Yeah I love how every site except Play embraced the whole same price thing, jerks.

The releases are terrible in 90% of the countries of Europe, especially the non English speaking ones. Which makes it a pain to be a gamer that doesn't speak the local languge. Half the time I can get away with it and just buy a game that still has the english audio and get away with just having to endure the subtitles being in another language. The other half of them rip out the english audio and text, which baffles my mind, because they just replace it with the subtitles of the local language but they don't leave in the audio. Why not have an option to just switch to the other language and leave an option to keep it in its english form?
Also brand new games tend to cost a ton more I think the last game I bought was like $80-85 for a standard edition. The raised prices plus later release dates kinda sucks. Granted if you wait like 3 months the prices drop pretty rapidly, ie I could go out and pick up L4D2 for like $30 as a standard price, it still sucks to be bled for a brand new game.

Also broadband is not a common thing in all of europe, so getting patches or updates is a nightmare, and don't even think about multiplayer...

is it me or is the image broken?
Anyways yay i get to finally play this.

They're normally pretty good with this sort of thing too, moreso than GAME or GameStation anyway.
