Holy crap that's a lot of new screens. And judging by http://news.dengeki.com/elem/000/000/239/239650/img.html
YEEEESSS! Noel x Tsubaki is finally cannon!... Don't ruin my dreams. These two are so perfect for each other. Don't deny it by saying they both love Jin. Jin only has eyes for Ragna anyways. THEIR LOVE FOR JIN AND INEVITABLE REJECTION IS WHAT BRINGS THEM TOGETHER IN THE FIRST PLACE! (At least according to my fanfic...kidding so don't ask for it :( )
Wow...14 options on the main menu. And lol @ Rachel being the tutorial instructor. "No, you idiot. As Jin your only form of attack is Quarter Circle Back A/B/C/D and grab. Do not trifle with me, you insignificant worm and finish this combo!" I hope she does the voiced tutorial for Hazama too. Pic related:
Challenge and Legion mode look awesome. I was considering buying the PSP version just for Legion mode but seeing that its coming out in CS I think I'll skip destroying my thumb trying to do correct inputs on that painful excuse for a d-pad (At least its not an Xbox d-pad Oh~o!)
Tierlist is pretty much spot on though I think Ragna was bumped down to A tier. Glad to see there are so many characters in B tier; the closer we get to a balanced roster the better! It still feels incredibly awkward seeing Litchi and Bang as S tier, though. In CT they were both average characters at best. I guess I just never imagined I'd live to see one of the comic relief characters (imo Bang and Taokaka) as S tier. Hopefully come BB:CR it'll be Noel's turn to shine ; ;.

Game is from the same creators of Guilty Gear so you know what to expect:
--Rapid Cancels
--Big combo strings
--Status for your characters (i.e. some take more damage than the others / some deal more damage)
--Uniqueness
--Barrier Bursts
--Good Looking graphics
--Pretty much one of the best stories you've ever seen in a fighting game, comparable to some other games out there
No regrets whatsoever on this game, it's seriously my best purchase on PS3 and playing this with friends is very very awesome.
I love this game >_> really. I'd marry this game if I could.
Btw! This is going to sound like a "Thanks for pointing that out captain obvious" thing but, if you take a look at the lvl of gameplay of the videos in this thread you'll see how tactical / fast paced the game is.
It also welcomes both casual and hardcore players. There are things that will piss you off depending on how serious you take the game though (i.e. V-13 spamming D) BUT... overall, very good game.

Agree with you on every point. Aksys did an incredible job making unique characters imo. I recently picked up Street Fighter 4 and while I enjoy it to an extent every character feels exactly the same. I realize that characters have specific strengths and fighting types like Zangeif being a grappler and Ryu being an all around jack of all trades character but they all felt so stiff and the same. Tagers your average grappaling character...until you throw in the brilliant magnetism mechanic that perfectly compliments his slow speed and inability to dash. Then Jin as the jack of all trades with your run of the mill projectile, dragon punch, anti airs, knockdown tools etc...but the freezing mechanic compliments his style so well.
You have to give Aksys credit for being able to balance characters with such unique and abuseable mechanics (like Rachels frog pumpkin and wind spam...well in CT at least!) and as the first of the series its incredible that the balance wasn't even more fked up that it was.
Marrying part as well. NOEL IS MAI WAIFU (Ask Anye, she knows <3~). Sorry to keep you waiting so long, Mame! I'm back and ready to nerd out!
