Playstation 3 : Blazblue

Figure above: Blazblue Limited Edition Box Set

Figure above : Consists of Soundtrack, Blu ray Movie Disc & Game Disc.

The game of the month : "Blazblue" featuring 2D High resolution fighting game. The Limited Edition features a two(2) disc original soundtrack containing 42 tracks by Guilty Gear's Daisuke Ishiwatar + remixes by DJ OH No ! Plus Bonus Blu ray movie containing basic tutorials, expert advice, character specific strategies and more...

Its well-worth to get the Blazblue R1 Limited Edition . As the price difference between normal R3 version is not much as its comes with extra goodies (2 disc Sountrack plus Blu-ray Disc) which is justifiable.

What i like most about this game is how straight foward this fighting game is. It features Story Mode (my fav), Training Mode, Time Attack Mode. The playstation controller works very well this game with the four(4) button scheme A,B,C & D. You can easily execute the special unique moves by one of the directional input of the R- D Pad. Although the graphics is 2D , it is amazing.
For arcade experience~ you might want to consider to invest in an arcade stick.

if you're a fan of fighting game, you MUST have this ! even if you are not a fan, you MUST at least try this title. Very well recommended ...

SFIV has arrived ! たのしいです。。

My copy of Street Fighter IV has arrived. Well, this time i bought it as used from a friendly seller in LYN. When he is about to shipped my copy of Valkyria Chronicles, he contacted me that his friend wanted to let go his SFIV R3 Korean Manual then i agreed, whynot. When i open the package, to my suprised it is Region 1 : Collector's Edition Street Fighter IV. He clarified that he found a slight crack on the SFIV R3 disc, which sometimes cannot load. Hence, he decided to sent me his personal copy of SF4 Collector's Edition to me with the same price. Thank you and i'd really appreciate that, you know who you are.This is definately a keeper to me, to be added into my collection of games.

Street Fighter is one of the legendary fighting games released by Capcom. The gameplay is 2D perspective with addtional 3D camera . Characters and environment rendered in 3D which is remarkably stunning and good. It has online gameplay too. Initially, you will started off with a selection of 16 characters, and 9 characters to be unclocked as you progress thru the game. The most noticeable added moves are Focus Attack & Ultra Combos. There are many moves, combos, super and ultra combo to explore with each of the character in this game. Performing the Ultra Combo at a right timing has a certain level of difficulty with the PS Controller, an arcade stick will be most-helpful.

if you a fan of VS game, this is definately what you're looking for. The verdict is MUST BUY !

SFIV Arcade Stick !

I just acquired my very first arcade stick which is Madcatz Street Fight IV Tournament Ed. Arcade Stick. When it first released, its completely sold out even though it comes with a premium price. Not to mention play-asia .com sold out in its pre-order stage. So this time, i am lucky enough to own one as i manage to purchase it locally from a trusted seller, alexwlh from lowyat.net as he deliver it all the way frm kl to klang valley.

At the first glance, you can feels that the built of this arcade stick is very solid. when you press the action buttons, it feels smooth and bounce reaction is good. the joystick feels responsive too. i can't find any fault or complaint about it except for the price i paid :p All the vital components are made from a well known japanese manufacturer, Sanwa Denshi which is well known for their exceptionally quality parts for arcades.

So far i've tried it with Soul Calibur, Mortal Kombat II and Tekken, really enjoy it but i still lose ok. Don't think that with this stick , i am god arcade fighter. Somehow it feels like playing in an arcade cabinet .By the time i posted this blog, i am still waiting for my copy of SFIV to be delivered to me...

Blazblue, and King of Fighter XII is coming soon !

Return of myDS

今まとても幸せです !

At last, i gotten a brand new US unit of DS Lite which is enamel blue top with a matte black base or so called cobalt/black. I have surveyed a few retailers, and this is the best deal which i have got as my budget is less <580 for a NDSL. Its comes bundle with the R4 which i am not using it. I actually did consider about DSi but i just needed the SLOT1 for the DS paddle controller (so much of fun playing it with arkanoid & space invader, you cant miss it) which the DSi does not have it. The sandy matte black base provide a very good grip to it.. liking it very much now. The downside is the FOC screen protector is not good, has lotsa scratches on screen after using the stylus. Probably, next month i'll need to replace it with the official Hori Liquid Crystal Filter DS Lite which is definately better quality and durable.

Ok no more blogging, time for DS and probably some revision .

Play-Asia Sale ！！いい ですね。。

It s the 2nd day of the week, i have to work past midnight. Its 2 am now, completely exhausted. A little stressful tho, as the subject is new to me ~worst of all the direction is not clear. Sometimes my job scope overlapped. At the end of the day, what matter most is i learn.

The arrival of the Play-Asia package, really makes my day. Its about 1 & 1/2 week of waiting time, which is considerably fast with free shipping. Its Bioshock ! High Acclaimed game of the Year & NDS:Chrono Trigger Japan Edition. I save usd20 from its usual price of 54.90 for Chrono Trigger which is definately a steal of the day. The Jpn edition of Chrono Trigger comes with dual languages English & Japanese.

meanwhile it is remain sealed until i have time to kill.
