Blade

Cigarette = Nice Touch. I doubt the next GG will be THIS hi-def though, hehe.

You failed to notice the phrase "If I cared".

If I cared, I'd want Hwoarang and Karin.

I just wish there was a character who literally either played like Haku-men or played like Yoshitora Tokugawa from Samurai Showdown 5.

This particular combo is IN the PSP version. I've done it before.

This.

Are you talking about CS1 Challenge 9 or CS2 Challenge 9, cuz I've beaten both without much difficulty....CS2 is even easier.

It's not a Pedo Bear if they got a body like Litchi. :D

For some reason I want to see an Adult Magical Gothic Lolita Girl with big boobs. *Think Adult Platinum+Adult Rachel in a hybrid Lolita/Magical Girl outfit.*

Track 2-5: "Dance's Return" *Door Opens* Millia 「...I'm home...」 Venom 「Millia!?」 Zato 「Millia...!?」 *Millia closes the door behind her* Venom 「Why, what are you doing here!? After we just spoke with Lord Maining! ...No, it's too late for that!」 Millia 「Maining...ugh, that man is repulsive, you're wrong about that.」 *Millia folds her Umbrella* Millia 「I was unsealed by Slayer, that meddlesome old man.」 Zato 「Slayer?...Now I see.」 Venom 「Who is that?」 Zato 「One of the Founders of our Guild, lost to time. Even compared to our abnormal talents, he's immeasurably a monster.」 Venom 「So that man...because this country is in turmoil...does he plan to be of assistance to us?」 Millia 「When he freed me, he didn't ask for collateral. That old man...he seems to just simply enjoy watching us...」 Venom 「I don't like this...A former Founder, even more a Guild Outsider? Enough, Master Zato, to allow yourself to be surrounded by so many stray dogs prowling around, I must--!」 *Venom threatens to say more, but Zato stops him* Zato 「Stop.」 Venom 「But--!」 Zato 「Venom, you forget yourself.」 Venom 「Master Zato, I'm telling you that pretentious old man will interfere with us!」 Zato 「I manipulate the shadows, even as a child I was treated as a monster. I've prepared myself for death, despite the dangers. Venom...your wisdom is valuable to the Organization, but that value means nothing if a hit* is lost.」 Venom 「Master Zato!」 *Salute* (*He's referring to losing a target in an assassination attempt due to being too cautious.*) Millia 「Flamboyant as usual...you boys have a good relationship... *sarcasm*」 Venom 「Millia...! *seethes*」 Millia 「Well, what now? Will we continue our tactical plans for Calroni Kingdom?」 Zato 「That was not our original intention, but, as of now we have something we need to obtain there.」 Millia 「What did you say?」 Zato 「You returned home too late. We were given a job, in negotiation for your head. We are now obligated to fulfill this mission, which puts us in a difficult position now.」 Millia 「...I see...So then, who's the target?」 Venom 「Calroni Kingdom's King, Salteria Calroni.」 Millia 「Now wait just a minute--!?」 Zato 「His Royal Majesty the King, child of 2 years...」 *Ominous Thunder roars as the rain continues to fall relentlessly* ~~~~~ (*Cue Writhe in Pain 'Arranged'*) Millia 「Are you insane!? This is child abuse, no, INFANTICIDE! This isn't an assassination! This is infamy!」 Zato 「I'm insane. *Stated Coldly*」 Millia 「Don't you know it's just a dirty job, Zato?! I've misjudged you as a man! No, for ANY Assassin wouldn't this be crossing the line!? Un-ghh!?」 *Millia collapses before him in a fit of tears.* Zato 「I expected you to say that, thanks for the informed opinion.」 Millia 「Don't lie to me!...A simple plot like this, Maining just wants to take over the kingdom by killing the king, right!? But, he just wants to burn and pillage! Assassins can't get involved in this...right!?」 Zato 「Don't you dare call for Slayer...」 Millia 「I...like that man's sense of justice and happiness, I don't see any resemblance of that here, fighting that benefits no one... But...you don't understand, do you Zato!? I hate it, I can't stand it! BUT STILL YOU--!」 Venom 「I'VE HEARD ENOUGH!!」 *Slap* *Venom slaps her so hard she falls down a step away from Zato in shock* Millia 「Venom!? If you're trying to get between Zato and I just--」 Zato 「Venom!」 Venom 「YOU BE SILENT! ARROGANTLY DISAPPROVING OF THE DIRTY WORK WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO HANDLE! WHEN WE ASSASSINS ARE GIVEN WORK IT IS NO MISTAKE, MASTER ZATO IS 100% AWARE OF THE SITUATION! YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE REASON WE TOOK THIS JOB, YET YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS, MILLIA RAGE!!?」 Millia 「..!」 Venom 「THIS WAS FOR YOUR SAKE...AND IF YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS--!」 Zato 「That's enough, Venom! And Millia...」 Venom 「My apologies, sir. I have...lost my composure...」 Zato 「Man gives in to emotional instincts. You're both Assassins, right? That's why you can understand this.」 *Millia and Zato stand* Millia 「Zato, but even if that's--」 Zato 「Regardless, it is an absolute law! The reputation of the Assassin Guild is bound by the responsibility to carry out ANY task once it is given! The Guild begins here...the first law which cannot be shaken. A holy law.」 Millia 「But to kill...a child?」 Zato 「To kill a king. With precision. My shadow will consume him utterly, no traces left behind. After this...the Guild will be the number one choice to receive children, to be raised as Assassins...」 Millia 「But, it's still as I thought, children will continue to fall in to hell...」 Zato 「To live despite these times is like waiting in a living hell. Am I wrong?」 Millia 「It's true. Venom and I live this way because we were rescued...」 Zato 「Living to take hold of what you can to continue to exist, that's what I believe in...」 Zato 「Venom!」 Venom 「*Salute* Sir!」 Zato 「I've decided. This is time-sensitive. The Royal Palace is protected by a powerful land barrier surrounded by a moat. You will take 10 elite subordinates...no, 20 of them, and disable the barrier's power, then secure an escape route.」 Venom 「It shall be done. As for Master Zato's position?」 Zato 「Of course I'll be coming. The King will be introduced to the three strongest of the Guild. I have absolute faith in all of you, you are my greatest subordinates.」 Millia 「And me...? Am I supposed to hold down the fort?」 Zato 「Millia, I want you to watch my back.」 Millia 「So even if you screw up, you still intend to go easy on a woman? *Sarcasm*」 Venom 「Keeghhh...!! *Seething*」 Zato 「You failed because we weren't prepared for their army last time. A suitable battle formation will be difficult, but, I want you to prepare for the possibility that Slayer will show up. I expect flawless execution, okay?」 Millia 「Understood. But, before we begin the operation I need to rest for a while. My body feels stiff from being in that prison seal.」 Zato 「That's fine. We're going, Venom. We need to hurry and set up tactical operations.」 Venom 「Sir! You may entrust rear guard to this Venom!」 *The two leave Millia haunted by her thoughts* Millia 「*Sigh*...」 Millia 「After killing someone...my body grows cold...my hands are stained in blood... For another child to feel that again...I'm tired of it...I hate it... Choosing me, instead of that child...all I see in Zato's dark eyes is a hatred I don't want... No...No!...I hate the cold, Zato...」 Slayer 「（Your desires must grow...）」 Millia 「No! No!...I want to die!」 Slayer 「（A good life...A good death, they do not carry the same meaning.）」 Millia 「I want to die?...I don't want death! ...I don't want to die!...I DON'T WANT TO KILL!!」 Slayer 「（Seize it! Your future!）」 Millia 「Future!? Zato's...and mine...?」 ~~~Sometime later, near the Castle Moat~~~ Millia 「I'm surprised. Such a large lake surrounding the estate...」 Zato 「A while ago, during the Crusades, a Gear made a crater here. Supposedly the epicenter used to be a submerged old-world miltary complex that Calroni Kingdom was built on top of.」 Millia 「What's the mission?」 Zato 「Venom's detatched squad will assault the barrier-unit from the front, attacking it directly. Once the battle begins, the guard network will be in disarray. During that time, you and I will quickly slip inside.」 *Zato aggressively gets on top of Millia* Millia 「Ah!?--What the hell are you doing at a time like this..?!」 Zato 「What better time than now...?」 *Zato forcibly french-kisses her* *Millia pulls away from him in fear* Zato 「Why is it?...Today you...shine in my eyes brighter than ever... No question...you're so beautiful...」 Millia 「Unfortunately for you, I'm actually an ugly woman. You might want to have your eyes checked. If you don't, you might really die of despair...」 *A large explosion is heard in the distance* Zato 「It's started...」

What the hell? NOBODY plays Mortal Kombat on Dustloop?

As far as I'm aware those were ripped via screenshots, I think Kurushii might know where...

Played some King of the Hill today, got a 7-Win Streak. KOTH is fun. MK feels "easier" than BlazBlue for some reason. Lots of Mixup and Overhead opportunities, lots of cross-up mind games, lots of projectile spam...but you really earn the Respekt points if you end it in a Fatality or other finisher. I just wish people wouldn't Rage or Lag quit on me so much, I had at least 15 disconnects in 10 minutes. So anyways, my tagteam is Smoke/Sektor, I teleport mixup like crazy, lol

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I updated my Voice Actor List to include Overture Dub and Korean #Reload voice actors! Also they're all alphabetical. http://www.gearproject.onehitcombo.net/Guilty_Gear/Other_Data/List_of_Voice_Actors.txt

To answer that, No, he did not. In fact, it's the other way around. He treats it like this: Guilty Gear: The Missing Link Guilty Gear 2: Overture ^Main Canonical Branches Guilty Gear X/X+/Advanced/Xtra/XX/Drama CDs/Novels/#R/Isuka/Slash/Judgment/Dust Strikers/Rise of Arms/Accent Core/AC+ ^Gaiden Branches In this case "Gaiden" means all the characters involved in the story are involved in the story of the main canonical branches, but the stories in the Gaidens is not necessarily cohesive, but semi-cohesive in parts. To simplify things a bit more: Pre-GG Arc: Parts of Side Red/Black Drama CD, Bible Timeline, Night of Knives GG Arc: GG, Lightning the Argent Novel, Rise of Arms (phone game) GGX Arc: GGX, X+, Advanced, Petit 1+2, GGXtra Manga, GGX Drama CDs GGXX Arc: GGXX, #R, Isuka, Slash, Parts of Side Black Drama CD, Judgment, Dust Strikers, Accent Core, Accent Core Plus GG2 Arc: GG2, Butterfly and Her Gale Novel, GG2 Material Stories That should cover it.

Also, in case anyone cares, they're NOT entirely CS1, Unlims that is,...they're hybrids of some weird kind.

I try that on many attempts but it gets blocked, even my DP sometimes. I think I'm too slow after an IB.

This IB nerf is troublesome for me when I play against Jin, because I can't take advantage of his near instant normals like I used to, 2C is never fast enough. I'm not even sure what to do with Ragna after I IB Jin's 214D(2).

Fatality, Astral Heat...all the same to me. Also, she looks like she's going to kill Ragna next so...yeah.

PLATINUM WINS

Everyone forgets. And they'll probably forget about Seyfert of Moon Diver as well.

I still say Strider Hiryu can't be compared to Hayabusa OR Bang, but this video was well done.

I'm not sure, but I think at some point we should reboot this thread with Fresh (reliable/not temporary) links for everything.

Track 2-4: "Dirty Choice" *A Door Opens in the darkness of a Thunder Storm* Venom 「Master Zato! Are you all right!?」 *He shuts the door to search for Zato* Zato 「Somehow...」 *Zato practically collapses into his chair.* Zato 「Pour me a Sherry. Those punches of his set my soul ablaze...」 Venom 「Sir...However, I must object to the consumption of alcohol while you're still bleeding, it is bad for your body.」 Zato 「I'll say it again: pour me a sherry. It's a drink from my home town.」 Venom 「As you wish it.」 *Venom pops the bottle and pours, setting the drink before Zato.* Venom 「Your drink, sir.」 *Zato downs it in one shot.* Zato 「Haaa......Millia...did you escape safely...?」 Venom 「No...there was no confirmation. She was spotted and apprehended, there is no mistake.」 Zato 「I see......Open a line to Lord Maining. We can't allow him custody of Millia.」 Venom 「But sir, our laws state that when an Assassin has been arrested, suicide is their only redemption! And you wish to negotiate--!?」 Zato 「She and I are not Assassins. We are kindred Forbidden Beasts, weapons born on the battlefield. Money can't buy that!」 Venom 「Because of that?」 Zato 「Just that.」 Venom 「As you wish it. A moment, please.」 *Venom leaves to open a channel as the storm continues to roar outside.* Zato 「...(Millia)...」 *Venom returns with a radio.* Venom 「Apologies for the delay. Lord Maining on the line.」 *Open Channel* Leon 「So, young Zato, you really blundered this time...」 Zato 「The target was killed. I think the damage was minimal.」 *Over* Leon 「Don't joke around...I've grown fond of that beauty we captured, the rumors about her were no lie. Fortunately, my informants have assured me...that meddlesome cabinet minister has been silenced...we were able to bribe him.」 Zato 「I am deeply ashamed. We regard that girl as a treasured daughter, I humbly ask that you please return her to us...」 *Over* Leon 「Hmph...very well. But, even for a traditional child of the Assassin Guild, she's a commoner. Before I return her to you, however...I've got another job for you...」 Zato 「Alright then. Well...who is it?」 *Over* Leon 「Heheh...his Majesty the King...is your target.」 Zato 「So I see. In exchange for Millia's head, we shall stake the reputation of the Assassin's Guild to assure the fulfillment of this task.」 *Over* Leon 「I'm looking forward to good news, hehehe...until then...」 *Over and Out*

A lot of GGX tracks were done for Gameboy Advance and are available as a rip, in case anyone wants to know.
