Guilty Gear X2 #Reloaded

[WildWop]

Anyone else looking to get this game? $20 is a pretty sweet price, but I'm wondering if waiting for Isuka is a better idea.

Also, does anyone know exactly when this game comes out?

[hutno]

I'm deffinitely picking the up, $15 after the GGC with Live online play is a really good deal.

[Santurio]

well Gamestop says, 9/1/04, but I don't know how reliable that is!

and KOF 03/02 comes out in Oct.

Don't forget about Guilty Gear Isuka.

But if you never played a Guilty Gear game in your life or your looking for your first 2d fighter, or maybe your first 2d XBox fighter, you really can't go wrong at that price at all, especially since you can play on Live.

These are both Xbox only!?! Ass!

[WildWop]

Speaking of KOF, who does SNK think they are, Capcom? Update the damn sprites for christ sake!

02/03 at least as a Ps2 release. That'd be really suck otherwise.

X Box controller sucks for fighters.

FYI the reason the sprites haven't been updated is because all of the KOF games are still running on the old Neo-Geo hardware...

Though none of them look as bad as the ancient Morrigan sprite Capcom uses...

Then they need to update the hardware. Do SOMETHING. At least Capcom has made some new sprites in the last decade -- SF3 animates very well and is fairly close to GGX in quality. Then there's Street Fighter Alpha. KOF hasn't been touched in a ... Millenium.

In theory, the next true King of Fighters game, KOF 2004, could have new sprites because it will be running on the atmoswave hardware instead of the neo-geo hardware... We will have to wait and see if they will actually update the graphics though...

I heard SNKP is still using the same sprites for most of the characters (I think Athena and Benimaru were the only ones with new sprites) in KOF: NeoWave. A total waste if that turns out that to be true.

Yeah, because these games- they're so horrible because the sprites aren't top notch.

[m0rningbreakfast]

Isuka's too weird for me - I enjoy GGXX as much as the next person, but when they make a fighting game that has a TURN AROUND button - God help us all.

[dafoomie]

These are both Xbox only!?! Ass!

SCEA has been rejecting a lot of 2d games for U.S. release, especially from SNK (see Metal Slug 3). So blame Sony.

And if the Xbox controller bothers you that much, buy the PS2->Xbox adapter.

[Ledhed]

Nobody is knocking the games themselves. It'd just be nice to see an improvement. I understand that the NEO GEO engine is something of a legacy, but It would be nice to see games that are pushing the limits of the hardware we have available to us. Just imagine how much better those sprites could theoretically look. Remember the first time you saw the sprites in GGX? I want that feeling with all 2D games these days. Using more hi-res sprites doesn't mean that any character has to be lost. It could add more character. It would make me feel like the game has evolved and changed for the better. But that's just me.

Don't get me wrong - I wouldn't mind seeing new sprites in KoF, I just don't care and it won't affect my purchase.

whats the difference bettween guilty gear x2 and this new guilty gear x2 reloaded

[Ledhed]

whats the difference bettween guilty gear x2 and this new guilty gear x2 reloaded

Live play is the only difference I believe. Though I remember hearing something about an expanded single player mode.

[Sartori]

whats the difference bettween guilty gear x2 and this new guilty gear x2 reloaded

Live, tweaks, expanded single player.

But it is a waste if they don't take advantage of the more powerful hardware and use it for something other than making it hard for people to get the 'PC' version of the game. They could at least add more animation to the characters so it can have more fluid controls, especially since they had to cut lots of it out of King of Fighters 2003.

[BustaUppa]

whats the difference bettween guilty gear x2 and this new guilty gear x2 reloadedI believe gamefaqs has a FAQ up for all the balance tweaks made to #reload, so you might want to check that out.

[bluenatas09]

well I hope when I pick this up some of you guys are actually online

Uhhhh................this is the Xbox General DIsc. board you dumb fck!!!

I just saw this. Shaq-fu you! I linked from the front page you dumb fck! Furthermore, not everything in the Xbox forums is exclusively Xbox! I happen to enjoy fighters so I clicked on the thread to see that the games appear to be Xbox only and was disappointed!

Thanks to others for the info on potential PS2 releases.

[GuilewasNK]

02/03 at least as a Ps2 release. That'd be really suck otherwise.

X Box controller sucks for fighters.


Yeah the Xbox D-Pad is awful.

SCEA has been rejecting a lot of 2d games for U.S. release, especially from SNK (see Metal Slug 3). So blame Sony.

Yeah, that's one thing that REALLY ticks me off about Sony. Unless its a compilation, they pretty much nix all 2D stuff. That's one reason I like Xbox alot. They give 2D a chance.

And if the Xbox controller bothers you that much, buy the PS2->Xbox adapter.

Yeah, I got one of those and its nice. But you can't talk with other players if you use it.
