The game is cel shaded?
Anyone know what Korean or Japanese players use for their converters?
Or, can go find out?
They play on arcade.
What Psylocke says is true. Don't tell me you assumed the Japanese threw away their lives for video games.Life is more important than games. Especially in America. If this was a valid career choice for us it would probably be different, but since its not we will never be as hardcore into it as our Asian counterparts.
Bullshit. There are tons of people out there who played games like World of Warcraft and Counterstrike so much that they have little time for much else. America (and Canada, countries, Europe) is just centered around games with Internet accessibility rather than arcade games. There is much less of a "pro tournament, get paid by sponsors" scene, but people play games just as much.
And if you're talking about games in general...look at pro American football and basketball.
Speaking of pro gamers, do top players in Japan even have sponsors, or do most of them just live off of parents/live off a shitty part time job and a place with cheap rent? Or do they somehow mix their arcade time in with a career/college?
Not really sure if it was 100% true, but from some of the accounts of gamers that have visited Japan(Elvenshadow, Destin, etc), many of the top Japanese players lead fairly normal lives. A lot of them are out of school already and have jobs, so basically their daily routine is to wake up, go to work, go to the arcades afterwards, and then go home and sleep.
Also, you have to consider that the density of arcades in Japan is much higher than it is here. I remember there was a part in Elvenshadow's blog where he was talking to some of the GG players at a tournament he attended, and he told them that he traveled 2-3 hours by train to get there, and described just how shocked they were. Traveling 2-3 hours, or even flying for a tournament is pretty standard for getting to tournaments in the US, with the lack of competition and how spread out most of us are, but I guess in Japan where there is good competition everywhere and the nearest arcade is like half an hour away at max, traveling for that long of a period isn't necessary.
Life is more important than games. Especially in America. If this was a valid career choice for us it would probably be different, but since its not we will never be as hardcore into it as our Asian counterparts.
Melty Blood, along with Third Strike, has the greatest animation in fighting games. It's disappointing to see games like GG and AH with high res sprites but choppy animations, especially during combos. It must be very very difficult to put effort into both aspects, but if you can only do one I'd say make sure your animation is top notch.
the fuck is this shit
play all the chars at least once and main the ones you have most fun playing
I was sad to find the sign at the Sega booth that said, “Melty Blood Actress Again presentation canceled because it still needs development.” >.< I think their website changed the release date to 2008 summer too. On the other side was a surprisingly long line waiting for the Purikura machines.
I also took a quick look at the Sega prize booth, and it said there’re some Melty Blood Act Cadenza figures coming out in the summer, with characters in swimsuits! The confirmed characters are Arcueid, Ciel, and Sion. Mmm.. Sion sounds good~
Haruhi Star (like we haven't see that before), but this in particular was pretty well done.
