If you're the type of fighting enthusiast who fancies time-traveling gothic witches, and shooting ice-wolves at demonic cat-girls, then we've got some good news, you weirdo! Games for Windows has marked down Aksys Games' high-def acid trip BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger by 50 percent through June 29th.

I must be a weirdo, but keyboard for fighting games is my control scheme of choice. Good thing there's the Eagle Eye Converter for PS3.

@ShoTime I'd probably assume, something one should never do on the internet, that it's because you were an emulator user.

@Epoque

Actually, it's because the first fighting game I seriously became a good player at was Melty Blood on PC. Now using the index finger and middle finger for the directional controls has become my habit.

@ShoTime Upvoted simply for mentioning Melty Blood.

@ShoTime I also prefer a keyboard, I guess because of all the fighting games I've played emulated on a PC.

Welcome to Joystiq Jordan !!!!

@oOWallaceOo

damn it, why is his name so familiar? his Bio is empty but I can't help but to feel that I've read stuff from this guy before ... did he transfer over from one of the other sites that got shut down?

@oOWallaceOo

Indeed. Welcome to both Jordan and Jessi for outdoing us common folk. As Justin would put it, "Joystiq 4 lyfe."

What Wallace said-- Welcome to the 'Stiq!

Oh neat. My copy of this for 360 just came in. Maybe this will give me some PC bros to play against.

If only it was Continuum Shift II :U

Ride the Ice Cart, bitches!

@Cypher FDP INFERNAL DIVIDER

What could be better than time-traveling gothic witches? Oh yeah-- ICE WOLVES!

But it's the previous game though >.> Where's Shift?

if this was 9.99 I'd be all over this, but considering they've released Continuum Shift, if I was going to get Calamity Trigger via digital download for ease of access, I'd just spend the extra $2.50 and get it for 360 Games on Demand. With the upcoming 360 update, I'll just be able to log in anywhere I go and download a great fighting game.

Damn. I may have just talked myself into buying it for 360 on GoD.

Errrr, huge fan of BlazBlue but I can't put down that much for the PC copy of the game.

and Games for Windows Marketplace is the only place you can get the game from. Darn Monopoly!

Wait, there was a PC version? Oh. I think I knew that.

I believe a PC port was easy since the arcade hardware is based off of PC hardware. I like that current arcade systems are using PC hardware, for instance Intel CPUs and Nvidia graphics to make PC ports easy. If only future consoles could do the same as well so ports can easily be done. : )

Looks like they also have all Rockstar games 75% off http://www.gamesforwindows.com/en-US/rockstargames/

Late as ussual , joystiq scum ! http://www.gamesforwindows.com/en-US/rockstargames/

Damn it, just bought Continuum Shift for PS3 for $15 from Best Buy on clearance. Would have got this instead for PC real high-defness but I didn't know it was out on PC.
