GG2:O has been out in the US since last year. I didn't pick it up because, well... it's not Guilty Gear. BlazBlue is where it's at.

Guilty Gear is all but gone now, this thing looks like Dynasty Warriors.

BlazBlue is where the focus should be.

They're actually talking about the EU release.

This game look so confusing.

I don't see the need for this game to be exclusive if it isn't going to sell consoles.
