I went to the world famous Video Games Live Concert last night. It was awesome. For those of you that don’t know what it is, check out the site.
During the opening of the show, they had a costume contest. There was a little girl dressed up as Zelda who won (big surprise there). Anyway, one of the contenders was dressed up as Noel! I met up with her and took a quick photo. Her costume was really awesome. Congrats goes out to her for representing one of the best fighting games on the planet.
…and yes, I’m wearing the Portal “Slide Forever” shirt. You can find it over at the Penny Arcade store.

This is from 1UP.com…
Arc System Works announced this week that a PSP port for BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, an arcade fighting game already out now for the PS3 and Xbox 360, is in the works. BlazBlue Portable is slated for a February 25 release in Japan for 5040 yen; no US release has been announced.
The PSP port will feature all the bits you’d expect — ad-hoc fighting for up to four players, the full suite of 12 characters (including the Unlimited forms they showed off in the previous home ports), and so on. The chief new addition: Legion mode, a new game variation where you move your character around a strategic map and fight enemies one-on-one to take over more territory.
Arc just announced BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, a sort-of sequel/sort-of update to their original Fighter, back in September. That game’s still set for a winter debut in Japanese arcades.
This is awesome news. Check out the 1UP link here.
