oops sorry for the bad spelling, been up all night:Pto awnser your other question, BC does seem to feel a bit boring after an hour or 2 of play. its not the kind where u can lose yourself in it for 6+ hours like u could with halo and cod.

Hey there, i own both blazblue and bad company, both games are a ton of fun to play. to awnser your question bc does still have a decent amount of players online but its not like halo in that u can log in at 3am and find thousands of ppl online, most likley you'll end up with 5on5 or 4on4. during the day though and on weekends games tend to be full or mostly full, and the online action is definetly intense. i'd say the biggest diffrence from bc and other shooters is the mass amount of destruction u can employ. sniper in the window? blow up the building hes in. almost every gun has an explosive secondary fire of some sort. and if it dosent u get granades anyways. vehicle combat is also very well done, more so then say halo. You do die fast, if someone gets the drop on ya your dead for sure. its similar to cod in that fashion. Overall an excellent and fun shooter that shines in multiplayer and will probaly be around for another year or so. (until bc 2 anyways)

As for blazblue, its new so ofcourse there are tons of ppl to play with. the online is tough, be warned, u better pick a character and get pretty good with that character if u plan on winning any matches. (except for the occasional noob, ofcourse) in the line of 2d fighters that have suddenly appeared, i would say blazblue is the best. its not as frame or timing heavy as street fighter and instead replaces that emphasis with volume of attacks and style. there is also a feature where u can map your special moves to your right analog stick, saving u possible problems with the 360's d-pad. also on a side note, the first round of launch titles of blazblue are all limited addition, it comes with a soundtrack as well as a VERY useful tutorial showing u tons of combos with each character and lots of strategy u can use. I got the last limited addition at my local gamestop at no additional cost so if u are going to buy blazblue u better hurry or you'll miss out on some excellent extras.

so all and all both are excellent games and worthy of a buy, if i had to make a choice between the limited addition bb for $60 or the discounted bc at $20...i would buy BB, for 1on1 fighting that somehow is more intense then a rocket flying towards your face.

why the hel does gamestop not have a review for this yet?
