BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Standard Edition (Playstation 3)
BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger by Aksys Games is a 2D one-on-one fighting game, which features an original cast (including many weapon fighters) and uses a four-button control scheme (weak, medium and strong attacks plus an EX button which makes your character perform unique special attacks). The fighting system is based around the ability continue combos when opponents are in a down state. On the defensive side, you'll have a number of ways of getting back up when down, so combo attacks don't pummel you. BlazeBlue employs the Type X2 arcade board and mixes 3D characters and 3D backdrops.
BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Standard Edition (Playstation 3) Reviews
I got this game in the mail 12 hours ago and writing this review is literally the first time I've stopped playing it since. I'm also eating, something I've neglected to do for...huh, about 12 hours. Yes, this game is forget-to-eat good. Its a time travel game, where you start playing and the next time the clock catches your eye, hours have passed when it seemed like only one at most. This is due in part to the speed of the matches. Each round, or 'rebel' for some reason, packs a lot of fighting into it. The pace is frantic but never seems out of control.
The visuals are just as insane. Anime-style fighters doing fast, fluid battle in front of realistic backgrounds with details everywhere in both architecture and animation looks as cool as it sounds if not cooler. A lot of people say its like Guilty Gear. Well, I'm not a veteran of the series, but having played XX Accent Core, I would call BlazBlue a mix of it and Darkstalkers. In other words, its awesome.
If I have to make a complaint, its that not every character is pick up and play. Some have short range, some have drives that are more complex to use than a more basic attack, some are better in the air while others have a distinct disadvantage there. Its balancing and makes them more unique, but it takes some getting used to. Also, the story parts of story mode take kind of a long time and sometimes you can choose something you didn't want to while skipping over it.
Should you buy it? Yes. Oh, God yes. You're so close right now. In just a few clicks, all the goodness could be yours! I called it a time-travel game, but its more than that. Its an I-know-what-I'm-doing-tomorrow game.
