    Oh yar, sorry, I meant to mention that now that I have my english manual I know about all that stuff now.
    Can't use most of it to save my life, but I know what's going on at least XD

    Cheers for all the info there :). Well, the part that I'm mostly interested in the FFXIII LE is the soundtrack. I've rented it recently and lately, I'm finding difficulty in appreciating FFXIII :(. It has a solid storyline but I don't like the battle system since its just assigning moves and thats it. I feel like I'm leaning towards BB but if the stuff on the tutorial can be picked up from the net, I'm not pushed for the box art :D

    EDIT: On the subject of BB, Amazon won't sell a standard edition? :confused:

    It should be on there, I've seen it about.

    Though the LE was about the same price last time I looked.

    In the US you could only get the LE for about a month before they released a regular one.

    If the LE costs the same as the standard, just get the LE!

    Hasn't the US version of this been out for about nine months or so.

    Why didn't everyone just buy it online it if they wanted to play it?

    360 version is region locked, PS3 people did just that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,005 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    360s are so lame.

    Interesting interview with Zen United's CEO, with some sort of rationale for the release date (although all these delays so close to the release date really don't make it look as if they have all their ducks in a row) and a few more light-hearted comments:

    In fact, in one of those meetings, the producer of BlazBlue introduced Noel, which was his own design, and it actually dates back 10 years. He really likes that character, that's why there are almost no panty shots of her (laughs).


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,762 ✭✭✭Yreval


    Apologies for the double post, but a press release has confirmed that the BBCT release date is the 2nd.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,329 ✭✭✭Xluna


    So does that basically mean it's definitely out this Friday?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,762 ✭✭✭Yreval


    That's about as definite as it can possibly get, I would think.


  • Registered Users Posts: 567 ✭✭✭Vyze


    Now you all have to go out and finally buy it, then get good with a range of different characters! :P

    I thought everyone was just supposed to pick Nu?

    I'm looking forward to the people who pick Nu just to tier-whore dropping her once CS is out on consoles.

    I just hope Mu doesn't take her place, I'll probably sub her for that sweet ass alone. :D

    According to Game UKs website it's out this thursday.

    Nu is clearly broken ! and also if you have a good way to approch this game, you can have a decent Nu in 3 weeks. No high skill needed to play her but she is so godlike ! she is the Sagat of BB, no need to know the game just spam the combo or D(s) ! The other characters are need more training and some need training and also a perfect execution (rachel, arakune )


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,329 ✭✭✭Xluna


    Crap,I forgot the link. 1/4/210.

    Don't worry, she's smack-bam in the middle of the tier-list in CS.

    Although she is too good in CT, I'd be hesitant to call her broken. Most of her matchups are around the 6-4 area with a couple of 5-5s and 6.5-3.5s. Her only 7-3 is with Arakune as far as I know.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭Dreddybajs


    What's Tager-Nu? Better than 7-3, really?

    Last I read, in CT Arakune was Lambda's best matchup, so it's not gonna be any more stacked than 7-3 at least.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    Does seem odd that Nu-Tager would be ranked better, maybe they give him some extra credit because he only really needs to get in once and he can end it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 567 ✭✭✭Vyze


    Pretty much that. Once a good Tager gets in on Nu her only reliable method of escape is a one off burst. Plus she's got low health and so a combo and a super will more or less kill her.

    In my point of view, it is true that the versus Tager vs Nu is 6-4 but at very high lvl = jap lvl
    In our case, we are not ... (im consedering myself as average at BB).
    To beat Nu, it is really difficult for average player coz we dont know when to attack between her crazy paterns of attacks. so that is why Nu is deadly against average players ! (it is still my point of view).
