BlazBlue in U.S. Arcades

The arcade scene isn't dead yet!!!

by ROCK en ROLL

For those who arn't aware, this is the spiritual succesor to the series GuiltyGear.  Developed by Arc-System Works and published in the states by Aksys Games, this is the next big fighter to come out of Japan(besides Street Fighter 4 of course).

You can check out the trailer for the game here -  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JVZihwaBOg&feature=related

or just search for "BlazBlue" if you're curious. There are plenty of match videos up by now.

A week or so ago U.S. arcades began receiving the machine so if you're interested hit up your local arcade! Here is a short list of locations that will have it.

Family Fun Arcade - CA
San Jose State University - CA
Puente HIlls Mall - CA
Tokyo Game Action - MA
Arcade UFO - TX
Planet Zero - TX
Game Galaxies - TN
The Nexus Arcade - FL
Chinatown Fair - NYC
Hawaiian Brians Billard - Hawaii
Sunnyvale Golfland - CA
The Game Grid - Utah

There are many, MANY unconfirmed locations that have it so don't fret if your state isn't on the list.

I had the opportunity to play this gem back at the '08 Anime Expo, and it's freaking sweet. Rumor has it the UCLA campus arcade acquired one as well, so I know I'll be sure to check it out! Don't miss out if you're a fighting game fan! It's still unclear as to when BlazBlue comes to home consoles, but it will. Go warm up today.
