"To say ‘thank you’ to Arc System Works in Japan for creating the exceptional 2D fighting series BlazBlue, Arc System Works Europe has today announced the Arc System Works Thank You Project. This new initiative promises to offer fans a unique chance to give something back to the BlazBlue team in Japan."
"The PSP gets the bulk of the new games in this week's Playstation Store update while the bulk of the quality PS3 additions are on the DLC side. Take a journey into the mystery of "The Taxidermist" for Heavy Rain, partake in some feasting with Dragon Age: Origins, or hop on to Ryo's forklift for Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing. And don't forget to check out the thirteen new songs from Jimi Hendrix for Rock Band."
OXCGN is always trying to get around to as many gaming related events as possible, to keep the community informed of various activities. Well one of our team, Betho, dropped in to the opening of one of the first Gaming Bars in Australia on Saturday night.
Come see what a good gaming bar should look like, and how a team of enthusiastic gamers turned a empty room into a gaming heaven.
GameStop.com is has put several Playstation 3 video games on sale. Games with the best prices online at this moment include Assassin's Creed II, Valkyria Chronicles, BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, NBA 2K10 and God of War: Collection.
"Australian publisher N3V Games spilled the beans about the extra content in the European version of BlazBlue.
PAL gamers get unlimited versions of every BlazBlue character plus extra colors for customization. That’s eight more modified characters to play with compared with our BlazBlue. N3V Games also says the European version will be fully online compatible with the Japanese and North American versions. Huh, that’s interesting. Wouldn’t Arc System Works and Aksys have to, at the very le..."
BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger and iDOLM@STER voice-actress Chiaki Takahashi has jumped on the 'sex sells' bandwagon.
A bunch of naughty mouse pads have been made for sale, focusing on her... well, you can see what they focus on, and it certainly isn't her voice talent!
It's no secret; European gamers tend to get the short end of the stick when it comes to release dates. However, BlazBlue's European release promises to reward them for their patience. European gamers will be getting bonus content such as a strategy guide and a copy of the game's soundtrack, but most notably, "new characters and moves" when they finally get to pick up the game early next year.
Here's a list of this weeks game releases, both on- and offline. The most popular retail titles are Wii Sports Resort on Wii, The King of Fighters XII on PS3 & Xbox 360 and BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Standard Edition on PS3 & Xbox 360.
TRINE is our most notable release for this week, coming out on PC at some digital outlets July 3, others, including the PlayStation Network, around July 10 (360 owners will have to wait awhile longer). Those wanting to get it at retail can wait a few more weeks. Again, a demo is available, and we can't recommend trying it enough.
Others worth mentioning include FUEL, BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, and perhaps the Megaman Starforce 3 titles.
