Blade Arcus is a fairly standard fighting game. The controls are solid. The battles are quick, but the key bindings (for keyboard) leave something to be desired. I recommend waiting for a sale to get this one, unless you are a fan of the series and already are into the story, as you will get nothing from this otherwise. Also, get a controller or an arcade stick. Don't be me and play on the keyboard. You can watch my review below if you want to get some game-play shots.
