   This is the best version of a great game. In terms of single player game modes this wipes the floor with Super Street Fighter 4. The problem is the online mode, not that there's technically anything wrong with it but it just seems like there aren't enough people playing this game which is a shame. You often find yourself being matched against the same couple of players and getting anyone to join a team match is pretty much impossible. If you want a 2D fighter for multiplayer get SSF4, if you want a 2D fighter for single player get this.… Expand

   I owned every PS3 version of Blazblue, and I never reviewed it before so I'm kinda usinig this as my overall review of the series without getting into the fact that this is a rehash. ... I went from SF4 to Blazblue at first. I just though it was funner. But it just couldn't hold my interest like SF4. I don't care about story, I don't know why anybody does in a fighting game (I actually no longer care about story in ANY game. Give me gameplay, that's why I play games). I wish there was a tag mode. The characters are incredibly diverse but that brings me to a problem: i like fighter weird chars but I don't like playing as one, and this game only has a few options for normal chars. I know that's the point, but it doesn't quite work for me. It's a personal thing, but as you can see by my score, it doesn't bother me that much. A great 2d fighter, and one of the reasons I play 2d fighters the majority of the time (nothing beats Virtua Fighter though).… Expand

   Talking about milking a series. This is the forth Blazblue game to be released and there is only a minimal difference between the four. What the developers have done is basically release a new game, charge a ridiculous amount of money for DLC such as clothes and fighters.....some going as high as $8, and then releasing a new game with the add on content later. Only to have more DLC to buy later. Even worse some of the fighters you paid for are not even able to be used in most game modes. Hopefully, this will be the last of the milking. It is a great series but the bad business practices Aksys Games is using can best be described as criminal and they should be ashamed.
   As for this game as a stand alone product? It has the best fighting game backgrounds and only Mortal Kombat comes close, the fighters are well designed and none of them are clones (But there is still not enough of them), there is a terrible story mode but plenty enough here to justify a purchase..something most fighters do not have is enough meat on the bones- That is not a problem here.
   I have already reviewed this game before...3 other times so I am not gonna go in depth again. If you like fighters in any way the Blazblue series is the best new release in years but make sure you get this one. The complete version.
   Shame on the publisher and developer. If it wasn't for the greed and terrible loyalty to the customers.....This game would of scored a ten.… Expand
