Guilty Gear X as a whole is on the verge of 2-D fighting perfection. My only real gripe, and I'm grasping for gripes here, is that the game has no real endings to speak of.

Forget your Capcom allegiances and vote with your feet: Guilty Gear X is an Otaku's Sistine Chapel - and you are duly called to worship.

Truly standout graphics, a solid and dynamic fighting system, and the game's style blend gracefully to create a very strong overall package.

To further sweeten the mix, Gear X includes some well-animated characters, as well as detailed backgrounds that serve to soften the sting of the game's visual noise.

Guilty Gear X will be remembered years from now. Most likely, you'll hear about it as the game that brought 2D graphics into the real next generation, and maybe back into the limelight as well.

Ingenius charecter design, full of originality and great computer graphic. I just wish I spoke Japanese so I could understand what they said. The game is addicting!!! If you are a 2D fighter prepare to fight!
