New 2D Fighter coming soon...BlazBlue!

I've always been a fan of the fighting genre since the good old days of playing Street Fighter at the local arcade. Street Fighter has dominated the genre for years along with others like Mortal Kombat and Soul Calibur(originally SoulEdge and SoulBlade). Street Fighter has always been the most popular 2D fighter but games like Guilty Gear came through and dominated its predecessors as far as graphics and gameplay. Although Street Fighter 4 will be due out within the next year or so, many have been eying a new and fierce competitor called BlazBlue. I've been researching this game, but there is a limited amount of resources unless you can read Japanese. The game is being developed by ARC System Works, the same developers behind Guilty Gear. BlazBlue combines high resolution 2D characters against high resolution 3D backgrounds. This game will push the 2D graphics enveloped to the HD arena. Previous 2D games would actually look a bit pixelated on HD screens. It will make its debut at Japanese arcades around December. There isn't an official release date for the U.S nor any info on which home system it'll be available on, but I did find some stunning screenshots. Enjoy!
