It took me until today to notice that Valentines breasts are so large that she actually hides weapons in her cleavage. That's uh...different.

All things considered, I wish you guys weren't trolling about V-Day being the games release because drat if it doesn't look better and better every time I see it in motion and I want to give those guys my money asap.

Honestly everything about the gameplay looks like what I want the Indie game scene to actually do: Rebuild gameplay ideas from the ground up in a thoughtful manner. The game's basically a reinvention of fighting games in a accessible but not dumbed down manner.
Everything else is to get it to sell when everyone's already bought the giants.

sorry, we are trolling. We won't know the actual release date until it's practically here. It's wishful thinking at this point.

Will admit I kinda wish Valentine's win pose wasn't so... awkward. Nice to see Parasoul finally loose though, seems every video I've seen with her she wins.

The music on that stage is so catchy. I was worried that Michiru Yamane might have just phoned in the soundtrack for Skullgirls since it's kind of low-key, but it sounds impressive as ever.

I wouldn't say it's too much of a spoiler now since all of the poster art, including that one and one for another character, are now available in the store to customize various products.

One thing I really like in that video that I haven't noticed before is the text that shows who currently has the health lead over the healthbars. It's a nice touch.

If you're talking about the poster, it's hard to make out exactly what that's supposed to be but it looks more like a singleplayer boss than anything.

Speaking of which, did they ever say anything about what the singleplayer boss is going to be? Or if there's even going to be one, for that matter?

That is one of the character concepts that has been posted before along with Umbrella and others, called And I Must Scream or something along that line.


Also I am pretty sure they said that there wouldn't be any characters the player could fight and not play as. So far the assumption has been that the last character revealed for the release build is going to be Bloody Marie, the Skull Girl in fiction, and the logical final boss. Putting in the morphous blob instead would be a twist.

Her name is actually Double. Her story is currently unknown. The current rumor is she is the previous SkullGirl, Parasoul and Umbrella's mom and the former queen of the Canopy Kingdom, Nancy. The character has gone through a lot of changes. From the one in the previously posted concept art to the one currently seen in the poster art. :goonsay:

I vaguely remember reading something about Double/And I Must Scream being a story explanation of mirror matches.

The best story explanation I've seen for mirror matches is the Touhou fighters, where after a mirror match the win quote is just some off-hand comment about training too hard.

The GG ones were kind of funny. The time traveling guys would say something about time traveling loving up, Slayer would say "Haha you can't fool my wife she knows HEY SHARON COME BACK" (because they both pop up with his wife)

GG was a pretty good game guys.

A backwards compatible PS3 can play it, but it's one of those rare games that has a horrible glitch where you have to try it 10 times before it decides to not freeze on the opening. It's a shame, I really liked GG and used to play it at uni a lot with a bunch of guys before they switched to some Naruto fighting game :I
