TheSixthAxis: Aksys Games has announced that BlazBlue: Continuum Shift will receive an update in May. The patch features Platinum the Trinity as a purchasable character for $7.99 (560 MS Points) and changes the balance of the game.
"Getting into a long-standing fighting game series is always a challenge for new players. There are so many characters and different versions to go over for many of them and going up against seasoned players who’ve been with the series for years is one of the biggest barriers. BlazBlue, however, has something a lot of other games don’t have; a ton of story. The series is known for having a lot of story content, which can make that initial barrier even harder for new players because if they jump into a new game and play the story mode, they aren’t going to be able to follow it." -- PlayStation Enthusiast
The 'visual novel' is a rather unknown videogame genre. Or is it? Professor Layton, Phoenix Wright and many other games are sneaking into the limelight by combining traditional visual novel storytelling with innovative gameplay elements. Do they have the potential to go mainstream?
Although I love them, I don't really consider pure visual novels like Higurashi or Umineko to be games... however I like that there are more and more games nowadays that use visual novel aesthetics as their story telling device
Aksys Games announces a variety of sales just in time for the holidays. Now you can either give your favorites games to your family or friends, or purchase a little something for yourself
About time
While PSP & 3DS version is the finished product with all the characters in the disc/card...
Don't you love getting exploited like that...
I hope Arcsys release a physical copy with all the content for home consoles, otherwise the game can die at the hands of MK or SSFIV upgrade...
