5. Bleach: Heat the Soul 4
%20+%20UA-IX.jpg)
Ok, ok if you have this game SORRY IT IS NOT HIGHER ON THE LIST, it's just REALLY hard to break down all of the awesome bleach games into a top 5 list, and believe me if I did this list when this game was new it would be number 1. Ok this is the second best game in the heat the soul series in my opinion (since I heard heat the soul 5 sucked and I avoided it) especially since it's the last heat the soul game that let's you use transformation characters in single battles, however unlocking characters gets kinda repetitive because you unlock them by getting points in Character Master Mode where you fight opponents arcade mode style with different battle conditions like, defeat the opponent while your reitsu gauge slowly decreases, or finish the opponent with a special, believe me that sounds awesome at first but the requirements seem to repeat themselves very often and you have to do Character Master Mode at least 5 times to unlock 1 character... I am still missing at least 3/4 of the roster...
4. Bleach: Soul Carnival
Ok the first thing I want to say is, the intro to this game is AWESOME, seriously go look for it, don't continue reading until you see it, just look for it on youtube and you'll think it's an actual Bleach opening. Anyway, the game is basically a 2D Bleach slash em up with a ton of playable characters and so many path ways in the levels it feels nowhere near linear (FINALLY SOMETHING LIKE THIS COMES OUT!!!!), this game is really fun but it has it's flaws, like how you have to constantly repeat levels to level up enough to beat the boss of the current level or how the backgrounds usually repeat in a boss battle like a flintstones cartoon so when you shunpo to the right to get away from the boss you just end up right next to them at the left edge of the area.
3. Bleach Blade Battlers 2nd
This is an importing MUST for a bleach fan who can play Japanese ps2 games, but much like unlocking Wrath in Fullmetal Alchemist Dream Carnival unlocking Inner Hollow Ichigo is not worth the hard work it takes to unlock him. That aside, Story mode is kind of hard but if you have a good strategy then you should beat it with ease. Story mode isn't really all that fun (and is only for unlocking stages)
compared to battlers mode (which is how you get characters), basically battlers mode is like... ok let's say your on a board, green squares are just normal spaces, red squares are missions that you choose who to play as, and blue squares are missions that the game makes you play as a certain character, and there are 3 "conditions" for each mission (you don't HAVE to do them to pass the mission) that unlock crowns, and basically if you get 200 crowns you unlock a special path, and if you make it to the end of that path you get hollow ichigo, did I mention you have to do certain blue tile missions to unlock parts of that path, to my luck I just HAPPEN to do those missions and unlocked hollow ichigo almost directly after getting 200 crowns.
2. Bleach Heat the Soul 6
Ok there is no Character Master Mode in this one but a really good (and effin hard) story mode as well as OVER 70 characters (obviously including transformations) as well as movie characters like Senna (1st Movie), uhhh the villain from the third movie, and Dark Rukia (3rd Movie), which you unlock the same way as any other character, through story mode, this is basically the "fight people POSSIBLY under certain conditions" and the story starts at the battle against Renji (the one in the HUMAN WORLD at the very first arc of the anime) and ends at Turn Back The Pendulum with a few movie missions and extra missions (extra like the one you do to get Uryu's dad), but if your missing one of those extra missions or movie missions or even if are missing an entire arc (there are a total of 61 missions, just so you know if you are missing any) then (and here is where it gets frustrating) try getting A ranks of all the missions before the missing ones (lets say you finished the Hueco Mundo arc missions and don't have the Turn Back the Pendulum missions or that you have as an example mission 10 and mission 12 but not mission 11, then try getting an A rank on the mission before 11) which gets frustrating because even when you think your at the final arc so you can just try to beat it with whatever score and you will win, guess what? THE FINAL ARC HAS HIDDEN MISSIONS!, but believe me the game is really fun and if you wanted some sort of surprise character... well there is Halibel... if she counts...
1. Bleach: Versus Crusade
Ok basically Heat the Soul 6 was Quantity with a twist of quality but this game is just quality piled on top of quality with a nice gold trimmed layer of even more quality. Ok, so the roster isn't what it could have been and maybe you could beat story mode in less than an hour, but the real fun is playing multiplayer, whether it be with friends or online (yes this game has effin wi-fi) it is AWESOME (psst, use Shusuke Amagai and Uryu as your team and then use their "bankai" gauge to transform at the same time, you WILL win), so like I said it doesn't have the biggest roster or the longest story, but it seems to take a long time to get bored of. One cool thing about the game is that the camera angle changes and makes it look a lot more, "dynamic" when you land a combo, and you do special moves so often that a simple combo feels like you just pulled of a special. And yes you heard me before, I said Shusuke Amagai, that filler captain, but he does make a good addition to the game believe me. Oh did I mention it's made by the awesome anime game kings known as Treasure (they made the first 2 bleach DS games as well as Astro Boy Omega Factor) I would LOVE to see a Bleach Versus Crusade 2 some time in the future.
Ok that was my 5 favorite bleach games but, believe me, if this was a top 6 list Bleach: Dark Souls (AKA Bleach DS: 2nd in Japan) would be number 6.
