Now this game is a real killer.
It started with a less known Guilty Gear for the arcade and it's underground popularity eventually forced the developers to make console editions and sequels.
My first Guilty Gear was GUILTY GEAR XX: THE MIDNIGHT CARNIVAL # Reload.
Long,.... I know. But it was the (correct me if I'm wrong) the THIRD installment in the series after GUILTY GEAR X. And boy did it do the trick for me!
I was totally impressed with the slick anime-style character design(the game is in Japanese btw, with english subtitles) and the easy to learn controls. I loved the characters too. All of them. There are like 13 different characters to choose from and ALL of them are totally unique. There's something for everyone! The best part about the game was the AWESOME background tracks. Each character has a theme song in pure instrumental heavy metal! DAISUKE ISHIWATARI!
SCREENSHOTS
The Story Mode is just brilliant and it has 3 different endings for every character. And trust me on this, IT HAS REPLAY VALUE! BIGTIME!
Other than story mode, it has a Mission mode, Survival Mode and Arcade Mode.
Whenever you finish one of these with a character, you unlock a wallpaper.
My favourite character is Axl Low. He was modeled after Axl Rose (the lead singer of GunsNRoses). The guy is kickass with his kusari-gamma!
Overall,..... the game is bloody brilliant I say!
This was the most fun to play game since.... EVAR!
This is no Street Fighter but it's as good as a 2D-fighter gets: 9.8/10
My favourite 2D fighter!
A must have for any anime fan.
