Also, new morphing technology allows you to customize your character's face, hairstyle, clothing, and body size.

When they say morphing technology I'm thinking you can actually change the face beside picking from the different hair and faces. This was at the sega site for BB. So you think this was another add on to the English version or just marketing to get more people in?

I sincerely doubt that Sonic Team will alter the character creation scheme between US BB and JP BB. It would probably make the two games incompatible, unless Sonic Team patched JP BB.

I believe that particular phrase just refers to your ability to pick from a set of stock faces. Afterall, when you are picking your face, it will "morph" as you go through each selection. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Marketing at it's finest.

I saw it and thought: "huh, oh marketing"

And yea Ryna you are right that it does morph as you pick the faces http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Yeah, well, I believe the children are our future.. teach them well and...

Oh, well, yeah, they probably meant the proportion thing. I don't think anyone should really read into too much of what's posted on that website, anyhow. I'm sure by now we all know what Blue Burst is and what it isn't.

To sum it up, Blue Burst is:

- Basically a port of Episode I & II to the PC.
- Hi-resolution graphics but with only a very slightly increased polygon count.
- A couple of new NPC models.
- A new online government quest system.
- A new team system.
- ONLINE ONLY
- Server-side saved characters.
- Hard disk drive powered. (Which means load times are slim to none..)
- Patched on a semi-regular basis to prevent cheating or fix gameplay bugs. (Also a benefit of being HDD powered.)
- The option to, at some point later on, purchase the Episode IV expansion pack which adds:
--- Some new levels
--- Some new items
--- Some new enemies
--- A new boss. (Two if you count his rare form)

.. and that's that. If you're expecting more than this from Blue Burst, you're a bit mistaken!

Blue Burst doesn't have any sort of new character creation system, gameplay engine, or anything simliar to that.

In other words, it's a port so don't bitch. No one forces you to buy Episode IV. >:(

Oook I wasn't really expecting this type of respond to something that I just wanted to point out beside I already know what BB has plus if you couldn't tell by the wackos it was just in good fun so locky time.
