Guilty Gear XX#Reload is debuting as a downloadable Xbox Classic today and it might be a warm up to an Xbox Live Arcade version of the inaugural game in the Guilty Gear series.

Arc System Works is getting into the microtransaction groove with Guilty Gear II Overture by charging a small fee to play as the boss character Raven. I don’t remember him being a playable character in any other Guilty Gear game so this may be a first. The experience will cost 400 Microsoft Points ($5) when [...]

Are you surprised Aksys is acting as the publisher for Guilty Gear 2? Like Arc System Works, Guilty Gear 2 Overture will be the studio’s first Xbox 360 game, but we won’t see this 360 exclusive for quite sometime. Aksys plans to release the tactical fighting game in the third quarter of this year.   [...]

Lucky US gamers evaded the buggy PS2 version of Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core Arc System Works hastily released in Japan. Aksys released an updated version, Japanese gamers got an apology. Perhaps they are going to make it up to their fans with a revised version of Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core. Play-Asia has a [...]

When I think of Guilty Gear I imagine 2D fighters and lots of juggling. Not, a mashup of Dynasty Warriors and Powerstone. But, maybe we should embrace the change? The online mode keeps the glitz Guilty Gear and adds two extra players (four total) in a siege-like mode. I’m interested in it because it’s quite [...]

Yes, Arc System Works radically changed the direction of Guilty Gear. The decision may be controversial, but why take anyone else’s word for it when you can experience Guilty Gear 2: Overture? If you can get on Xbox Live, head to the Japanese Xbox Live Marketplace. Arc System Works released a demo of Guilty Gear [...]

Good news European readers! Guilty Gear XX Accent Core is on its way in February 2008 care of 505 Game Street. However, they are neglecting the Playstation 2 version. Only the Nintendo Wii version with awkward motion control will be released over there. Good thing the classic controller works too, right Levi?

After what feels like the longest wait I've ever had to endure, I finally hold in my hands a copy of Guilty Gear XX Accent Core for Wii. I've been a huge fan of the series for about four years now, and it's a huge relief to finally have a copy of Accent Core, especially [...]

I met with Arc System Works today and we started to iron out their plans for the future.

However, [...]

On September 11, Playstation 2 owners will get a crack at Guilty Gear XX Accent Core. Then Wii owners get a shot at Guilty Gear with waggle control on October 9.

Ask a gamer what makes a great game, and the first answer you'll most likely get will almost undoubtedly be either graphics or gameplay. But one very important and oft overlooked part of what makes a game great is the soundtrack. The music in a video game can touch us, make us scared, make us [...]

After years of making 2D fighting games with Ky Kiske, Arc System Works is taking the cast of Guilty Gear and throwing them into a 3D action game that looks strangely similar to Dynasty Warriors.
