This is why I always wait for the HK PS Blog to update before a major release if I'm going to import.
To be fair, doing that this time would have risked missing out on Elphelt - there was no indication until three days after JP preorders ended that she'd be free for HK buyers.

No just strikes at shipping companies.

Yeah, just read the full news. Worst timing ever though, I really want that artbook but I it's not even certain it will be 2 weeks more. :(

How many hours until the Japanese release? Can we expect early streams or is retailers breaking release date not a thing in Japan?

Shouldn't be a problem, you should still be able to download Elphelt through the NA store even if you don't have the game.

OT should be up tonight, probably around 8PM - 9PM CST or so due to my schedule with work and errands. It looks like people want to stick with a subtitle that references the cross play too! If I missed anything, I will be around to edit it as well.

How about if we have a notable players list for each character?

I know like a quarter of those only, lol. Is ogawa still on his own tier?

I didn't really expect GG2 music, nice to see them there!

edit

For those asking about english in the Japanese version.

Patch is live it seems.
It can be a 1.5gb patch for something else, too, of course.
 
I hate to say it, but having never been fully interested in fighting games, this kinda has my attention. I never played a Guilty Gear game before. Is the learning curve steep? And would I be missing out on anything giving this one a try first?

The learning curve to any fighting game is steep. And the learning curve of a Guilty Gear game is steeper than most other fighting games. I haven't played Xrd yet, but I would assume the game will take quite a bit of time to learn. If you are asking about missing out on story lines from earlier games, I wouldn't worry about it. It's all pretty nonsensical anyway.

I wouldn't say GG is too hard, especially with the training mode. It fully teaches you all the combos and mechanics and how, why and when you should use them.

I would say with the training mode this would be a good game to get into fighters with.

I'm being taught GG right now and everything hurts. It's cool that everyone's so different but learning about character weight specifics and... Zappa's sword give me fear.

Impressions from Dustloop says that the PS3 version plays just fine, no dips of any kind. Also,

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Is there a way for a filthy Euro to easily get this demo somehow? :(

JP version is in English already!?

Yep, SRK posts and screens on dustloop show menus entirely in English.

I get off work in an hour and am heading straight home. I'll be streaming some when I get home. Just going to be in training mode with Chipp, probably, but if there's anything anybody wants me to try, I'll be more than happy to.

Yup. Even preloaded starting 12/1.

So could I play this on my US PSN? Download it on the japanese account then play it on my US one with all my friends/etc?

Trying to see the downside of doing this if any. Oh I won't get the preorder char?

What was the download size?

Anywhere I can buy those with the code instantly being sent to me?

play-asia works fine.

If you download the hong kong version (which will be cheaper) it will come with elphelt if you're willing to wait a few more hours.. The ship's sailed on you getting JP elphelt for free :<

And that'll still work on my US account right?

Honestly shocked Arksys hasn't said fuck it and released on US PSN early too

Okay lemme get this straight.

1. Register Honk Kong PSN
2. Buy Honk kong PSN cards
3. Purchase game on HK account. Set account to primary.
4. Play HK game on US account and hopefully should have japanese/english dubs and english sub?

that should be all true right?
