BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger is the first game of the BlazBlue series.
==Story==
"A.D, 2199 Dec.
By the end of the year, most citizens were expecting the beginning of an era of unprecedented development. Unfortunately, 2199 was also the year that the Librarium's great foe, the man with the highest single bounty on record, Ragna the Bloodedge, was rumored to have appeared in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi. People gave him the nickname Grim Reaper, and it was said that his goal was the obliteration of the Librarium in its entirety. Following the rumors, people began to make their way to Kagutsuchi - some after the incredible bounty on his head, others after the "ultimate power" said to be in his possession... and a few whose only interest was his assassination for the Librarium."

==Reception==
Upon its release, the console version of Calamity Trigger was met with generally favourable reviews. IGN cited it as a "dream game", complimenting its responsive mechanics, memorable characters, and well-presented story. They awarded Calamity Trigger a 94/100. http://uk.ign.com/articles/2009/06/26/blazblue-calamity-trigger-review http://uk.ign.com/games/blazblue/ps3-14345703
Destructoid awarded the game an 8.0/10, noting its charm, but also stating that the character designs in its small roster are cliche, and that the game felt generally unpolished. The review further criticises the story mode, calling it "low budget" , and notes the lack of single-player options outside of the main story. Despite this, Destructoid's review does compliment the online play, accessibility and animations.https://www.destructoid.com/review-blazblue-calamity-trigger-140383.phtml Gamespot, however, commented that there are many offline options, and called the game "weird, bright, and loud", also praising its online mode. https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/blazblue-calamity-trigger-review/1900-6214767/"
The game currently sits at a Metacritic score of 87. http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-3/blazblue-calamity-trigger In 2009, the game was in the running for the Spike Gaming Award's Fighting Game category, only narrowly losing to Street Fighter IV.
