BLAZBLUE the calamity trigger

cause fighting games ain't DEAD.

blazblue van de makers van guilty gear is een nieuw arcade fighting game die de ways van het genre zo krachtig weer tot leven roepen dat je er niet langs kunt kijken.

STORY:

well first off its a fighting game so story wise don't expect it to make sense.

anyway, in het begin kwam er uit het niets 'THE BEAST' een monster gemaakt van pure magie die een in magieloze wereld terecht kwam.
de mensheid stond machtenloos hier tegen over, EVEN NUKES FAILED.
en in een periode van 2 jaar was 50% van de volledige mensheid uitgeroeid. het was in deze periode dat 6 helden op stijgden om de mensheid te redden.
deze 6 leerde de mensen omgaan met magie. in turn humans aplied magic to sience.(steampunk setting)
en creerde de arg magus, een machine die de kracht van 'the beast' gebruikte om de beast te verslaan.
maar de beast stierf met nogal een bang die de wereld onder doopte met 'seither', een soort gas achtige substantie (bekan zuurstof) die de basis voor magie bezorgd.
in zware dosis was dit dodelijk. hence humans started building places at high places in da mountains.
een dictatuur door NOL. or the library genoemd. was een staat militaire macht die de nieuwe wereld onder controle houdt.

basic pre info.
its weird i know.

GAMEPLAY.

blazblue is een heavy japanese fighting game waar het mogelijk is om nogal combo's uit te halen ten voordelen van AWESOMEniss in plaats van effectiveniss.

er zijn basicly 4 attack keys.
low, mid, high AND drive.
elk character heef zijn unieke low, mid and high attacks typerend voor dat character.
buiten dat heeft elk character een unieke en gelimiteerde ability genaamd DRIVE.

de drive werkt simple met het gebruik van 1 knop.
maar kan ook uitgebruider benut worden.

voorbeeld. iron tager heeft electric charge pull.
in normal use can hij verre afstande foes (in air) naar zich toetrekken om dmg te dealen, boven onder zijn hp balk staat hoe veel energy hij heeft voor deze drive.
MAAR hij kan ook een electricbolt afvuren die DIE charge balk leeg haalt en de vijand EN op afstand dmg doet en hem in mellee range haald.
wat hij wel kan gebruiken since hij het langzaamste character is in het spel.


in defense heb je een barier die alle attacks can ignoren maar uw barier balk hervuld zich niet tijdens een ronde.
ter koste van uw resterende barier balk kunt ge een counter uitvoeren die alle moves van uw foe cancelled (mits right timing)

buiten hieruit kunt ge FAKES pullen waar door ge uw speciall attacks mid use cancelled om uw tegenstander in verkeerde defense te lokken.

example= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdZP4PjAT1Q

aye its a bummer to not be able to play this.

Did some major searching...i found nothing to help you. The xbox version is not region free, there is no viable way to unlock yer dvd reader on it without opening it up and doing all kindsa shit to it. Xbox 360 is a bad console to begin with , no offence intended.

hate to say it but atleast the ps3-verion of blazblue (dreadful machine btw) is region free.

as with so many things region codes is a thing from the past still being used by corporate arseholes to "increase" their wealth while all the 'internationalists' (i use this term lightly in this case) get screwed over...


Blame capitalism...

AYE.
i agree withcha there.
ohwell with some luck 555games will license it and make a european and australian version of it.
wouldn't be the first time they did such a thing.
does kinda make it more expensive though.

fun video.

every astral finish of all character.

what is astral finish?

laast mogelijke ronde (dus ROUND 3) kan een speler een fatality droppen op een foe met minder dan 20% als uw special move balk op max is.

no real pratic use but showing off and beeing awesome.
