Arcana Heart 3: Coming to US on PSN

Check homing cancel. It has its own youtube channel as well.

@Mizu: If they're still asking what you and others want, then there's your answer lol.
 
I tried getting away from the aesthetics, I really did. I went to GU and played for like 4 hours the other day.
What it comes down to is the rule of cool: I can't play something I don't think has some cool aesthetic value in some way.
On top of that; most of the people I was playing with were downright weird. This is a personal thing; half the fun of fighting games is the social interaction. I don't imagine I have much in common with people who love shota/lolicon who are 10 years younger than me.

I'll give it hefty points for design prowess, I rate it below Guilty and above BlazBlue in technical depth based on what I've played/seen/read.

lol it's always good to see somebody at least give the game a fair shake. Sorry the people who play it near you are apparently creepers instead of FG players.
 
I'm going to hit a local tourney this Sat- people play AH3 here, so I could get an eye on it and see if I'd like it.

I tend to prefer low-execution, spacing-based fighters (like Soul calibur) over combofests. That said, I can still see the influence of SamSho Special in AH through youtube vids. (The AH team also made the last SamSho games- which were really good)

FG players can be creeps just as much if not moreso then anyone else.
 
To be honest, this game IS a combo fest and while proper spacing and timing is key against better players it takes a little while to get past the "press homing, do combo" barrier. Also, don't expect a significant ground game lol.

I'd like to avoid going into social aspect though, beyond saying that many folks who take this game seriously are people you wouldn't mind just hanging out with.

I like how I'm responsible for half the posts in this thread. Don't care though, this is the first legitimate quality FG released on consoles in a while that isn't completely dead on arrival.
