Technicaly it's Platina, not Platinum. And apprently, she's going to be this game's bridget.

Who's the character with the umbrella? She looks deadly. :O

That's Rachel. Trust me, appearances are extremely deceiving.

Valkenhayn gets delayed and patch comes with a freeze

When waiting for the Ranked Match matchmaking, players can practice using the "In Queue Training Mode". While in Training Mode, if the player is playing with one of the following combinations: "Ragna x Hazama" and "Ragna x Valkenhayn" and finds a match, completes the match, and returns to "In Queue Training Mode," a freeze will occur.

Bummer. A fix for the patch is currently being worked on.

Platina's a girl with personality issues like sakubo, one is a polite male and the other one is a rude girl(wow she does resemble sakubo) and the other personality belongs to trinity.

CS2 is coming in May for PS3 and 360! CS2 coming to PSP and 3DS on May 31st. I've been waiting for this patch. Hopefully there will be a sale for Platinum like Makoto and Valkenhayn earlier. Gotta put a lot of time to practice again.

Now I can't say anything about the gameplay since I haven't played it (and I suck at fighters regardless), but I have to say that I love the story and characters. Confuses the hell out of me, but they're awesome. XD

[Kaori]

any new characters though?

any new characters though?

Nope besides Platinum, if you already have Makoto and Valkenhayn. Roster is up to 18 once the patch is out. The psp will catch up to the consoles, since it's all included plus balance changes. Not sure if it'll have some story mode for the new characters since the DLC for consoles is versus and online. Can't use them in arcade and obviously nothing for story.

[Kaori]

So will some characters need to be downloaded for the psp or are they all included?

[zerokoolpsx]

All DLC characters are included. You can use all of them from the start including Mu-12.

[Kaori]

Alrighty I'll wait again for it to come out, there is a story mode right?

[zerokoolpsx]

Yep, there is a story mode that has multiple gag endings for each character. Certain characters completed will unlock the canonical or true ending.

[zerokoolpsx]

I know this is a little late, but since PSN is finally up. Patch v1.04 is released which includes Platinum and balance changes. Xbox 360 has Platinum for over a week now.

I love Blazblue. My favorite characters are Noel, Nu, and Tsubaki. Also, for those who don't know, Blazblue: Continuum Shift 2 is coming to PSP on May 31; right here in North America (at least for me)...

[Kaori]

Continuum shift 2's controls are radically different, still its worth getting if you cant afford the DLC characters.

[Kuukai]

How-the? How can the controls be that different? (Outside of the PSP, Vita, or 3DS version) Also, we need a "Guilty Gear: Spiritual Successor to Guilty Gear" thread now that a sequel is imminent. With names like "BlazBlue Continuum Shift 2 Plus", BB is certainly doing a good job though...

[Kaori]

I cant perform any distortion drives with the analog stick anymore.

[zerokoolpsx]

I use the stick and have trouble dashing when I need to at first. I don't know how you tolerate the pad.

[Kaori]

I dont, I just set it to stylish but it still doesnt suit my style of gameplay.
