BlazBlue: Continuum Shift EXTEND Limited Edition - Playstation 3

Most likely if you've even considered getting this game, it's because you love fighting games, guilty gear, Japanese fighters, or had a good recommendation. The action is very fun once you get baptized into the community. You WILL get murdered online if you haven't played before. DONT be scared. People do practice and it does take a little practice....but think about how many insane hours people put into adventure games, RPGs, shooters, and just games in general. All games have a learning curve, and this game is no different. However, once you get used to the frantic nature of the game, you'll be VERY happy you got it. I haven't been able to play since I don't have a tv right now and because of an accident I got in a while ago, but I've played the previous 2 games, and was ranked fairly high in the first. Unlike street fighter, you'll come to have a "main," and a "sub" character. Respectively, your main is your primary character who will define you as a player. Think of him or her as being synonymous w/your favorite color; they will become part of you. Your sub will be another character you also like, who you'll practice after you have your main down pretty well. You'll know when you do. Just fry to be patient, there are lots of people willing to help, play casually, and just have fun, so don't get discouraged - many are willing to hold your hand. And with extensive forums available, with videos online , you'll never be lost. The story in blazblue is also another great feature of the game. I must say, it's refreshing to have such an expanding, dynamic story with each major release. You can decide to indoctrinate yourself into the blazblue world...or just primarily play online. I chose the latter and basically got the entire story from listening to friends online. Later, I decided to try out story mode, and I was glad I did. The game doesn't force you to do something in story mode to unlock anyone, like most games did back in the day. Gone are the days of playing (a generic) story mode 13 times just to get ONE character. No way. Some people might be put off by the characters for being a bit "eccentric," or different, but it's a blessing. Truly. In addition, arc system works REFUSES to make cheap duplicate characters (e.g. Ryu & Ken, [old] smoke & scorpion) so all characters feel (and are) daftly unique. Bang for instance, a ninja, is the COMPLETE opposite of your typical ninja. he ISN'T quiet, he ISNT smooth or stealthy, and is the source of a lot of comedic relief. Even if you don't like bang as a player, he's sure to elicit A laugh from all who play. Think of bang as the class clown, although a lovable one who fights for justice. If you didn't already notice, bang's name speaks for itself. He even has his own theme song! one of MY favorite characters is the (incredibly) graceful litchi, a woman bang is completely infatuated with...but will never get (except in his dreams, literally). Though all characters move and combo with fierce conviction once you get acclimated to them, litchi especially plays as if each move was exquisitely choreographed. Now, since there are 19(!) characters on the roster, you'll never get bored. I forgot to mention earlier, but for each character, there's an extensive tutorial mode to ease you into learning how to play each character. It's hands down the BEST tutorial mode you'll ever play. The great thing about this game is how ALL characters are equally strong. There are no "akumas" here who are much stronger in a "broken" sense. Naturally, some players are a bit easier to learn, or might have to work a bit more for damage, but all characters are a threat. I can't express how amazing this game is. Honestly...ever since playing mortal kombat trilogy, soul calibur, and guilty gear, this game snugly fits in with the other fighting greats as a notable title. Once you get some online friends, the online experience is wonderful. There's certainly a reason people keep coming back for more. The joy people have for the game is pleasantly palpable. Also, make sure you get yourself a bluetooth mic, itll be very necessary to talk online to avoid typing all day. If you have a PS3 and 360 consoles, or are getting this as a first game for a system, do yourself a favor and get the ps3 version. It has the best competition. Almost everyone agrees. To fuel the spirit of competition, a well-implemented ranking system is put in place to encourage play. Along with that is a level system to mark your skill as you play. It's nice because with each fight you gain experience. You never go down a rank for losing, instead you just get a small amount of experience. To stay competitive, you'll need to get familiar with rapid cancels, barrier burst, and barrier block, among other things. As noted earlier, the tutorial mode teaches all of the things with finesse. After playing for a while, the combos you'll pull off will astound you and others. To complement these systems, AMAZING graphics are used. Though not completely 3D, this game is like a work of art. All sprites are hand-drawn. If you have enough money, GET A GOOD 1080p TV. trust me, you'll be glad you did. The particle effects are nothing short of spectacular. I would go on and on about this game, but You should get the picture by now. If you're tired of cliche fighting games and the people who play them, this game is for you. So do yourself a favor and order this game and prepare for not only a game, but an experience. P.S. If anyone wants to, add me to your friends list. I'm "glencocoe" and will be returning when I get the chance. I'm o. The ps3 version of the game.

First, the game-play: the characters are all wildly different in terms of play-style, owing to their special "Drive" moves; this can make learning the game more difficult, but the trade-off is that your possibilities are greatly expanded. Even with this variety the game has been very well balanced, though some do have a slightly easier time of it, such as Valk. The addition of Abyss mode is nice, with some rpg-like character customization possible, as well as an increasing level of speed for people who think regular BB is too slow. There is a training mode, but it really isn't too helpful past the very basics, beyond that the challenge mode is ok, but it only teaches a couple combos per character that are widely useful. If you like this type of fighting game at all, you'll find a deep, fun game here; with a unique play-style for almost everyone. Gameplay=***** As far as the story, I think it's pretty good as far as fighting games go, with reasonable characterization, some growth, a few surprises, and a little levity though the story is fairly dark. However, this is the area where the main flaw lies, and the reason I'm writing a review: the translation is terrible. Really just terrible, it reminds me of old 80's anime where profanity and random lines were inserted for no reason other than to make it "edgy." While there is less profanity, several characters have almost every line they utter changed to impose the translators view of them, which amounts to tired cliches, memes, and full sentences of insults which don't exist in the Japanese. The main victims of this are Rachel, Hazama, Bang, and Makoto, though no-one escapes completely. It's frustrating for me because the story and characters are being presented in a serious way for the most part, but it is all undercut by inane things like Hazama saying "Pro tip," and Makoto talking like a valley girl. I suspect the subtitles are really a dub-lation, ie. writing down the dubs lines as if it were a translation even though they have different purposes, but I haven't been able to bring myself to listen to the English yet to check. Story=**** Translation=* it's good when translating non-spoken lines; and the general gist of things is (usually, mostly) intact, just caked in stupidity As another review said the extra material that comes with the LE of CS:E is really underwhelming, with an "art book" which has almost only images found in Calamity Trigger's gallery, and in a very small format at that. The calendar is ok, but the pictures used aren't very interesting at all, being only the character and their crest. The best part is the soundtrack, as you might have expected; it has a mix of instrumentals from the game, as well as vocals, which as long as you like the music in BB in general you'll be pleased with it. Extras=**1/2 tl;dr = Good gameplay, bad extras, inexcusable translation; seriously, whoever did it needs to stop doing translations, whether they were part of Arc or Aksys

I already had some experience with the BlazBlue series after borrowing the original Continuum Shift from a friend, but I was unable to download the additional DLC characters because of connection issues with PSN. Instead, I ordered this, which is a definite step up from the original, including the three DLC characters (Makoto Nanaya, Platinum the Trinity and Valkenhayn R. Hellsing), new story modes for them, a new character (Relius Clover), a new gameplay mode (Abyss), an points system for buying alternate colors, Unlimited characters, announcer voices and an art gallery, and various buffs and nerfs to all of characters. Also included is a sort of abridged version of Calamity Trigger, which takes the place of Continuum Shift's story of the Black Beast, which has a few minor audio and visual issues, mainly the voices switching to their Japanese actors in the middle of their dialogue, but is still playable. The limited edition comes with a 2012 calendar with pictures of the characters on it, an art book with concept art for the new characters and some promo art, and a soundtrack CD. I would say that the CD is the reason to buy the limited edition, as it has some fantastic music on it.

Es un gran juego, si te gustan los juegos de pelea multicombos este es un juegazo, sus mecánicas de juego y la profundidad que ofrecen cada uno de los personajes te sorprenderá, además de ser variados, te pasarás horas y horas disfrutando de sus modos de juego y de cada personaje. El único defecto es que no viene en idioma español, solo trae Inglés y japonés, su modo historia, para mí, es muy aburrido porque no le entiendo a lo que dicen, si trajera subtítulos al español entendería. Te recomiendo que le pongas las voces en japonés a los peleadores se escucha con más intensidad y emoción, y con subtítulos en Inglés. Es un juegazo pero por desgracia la empresa encargada de hacerlo Arc System Works no ha entendido la importancia de sacar sus juegos en idioma español, como repito, es el único defecto. Jugablemente hablando no te arrepentirás. Si posees un arcade stick será una delicia jugarlo así.

Vale la pena el juego y la edición especial que es , incluye todos los extras :D

Para menos de 400 pesos,pre sintado y ser una edición limitada uuuff., Ya lo había dejado pasar pero después de ver que mandaban una edición especial ,no dude en comprarla.

El día que llego me sorprendió mucho, no sabía que era una edición de colección. Pague menos de 300 pesos mexicanos por este gran juego y aparte es una edición de colección. UNA EXELENTE COMPRA.

Producto nuevo y sellado, una linda versión y por el precio recomendable ❤️
