I actually think it's a good thing they didn't put in any mini-games. All I could have ever wanted from them was for them to add some borders to the 4:3 part of the game so that us 16:9ers could get something insignificantly special.

Mashiro, well if the PS2 version doesn't have online then why would the Wii version of the game have it, unless of course the PS2 version does have online and I didn't know.

Mashiro · « **Reply #26 on:** July 30, 2007, 01:33:09 PM »

I dunno cause maybe they woulda been cool and taken advantage of Wii Connect 24 a opposed to just a straight port? =) It was just wishful thinking though (doesn't Xbox have a version online?).

darknight06 · « **Reply #27 on:** July 30, 2007, 07:34:22 PM »

Yeah, and the lag killed it. GG is too technical of a game to work online IMO.

IGN has updated the release date for September 11, 2007.

Caliban · « **Reply #29 on:** August 06, 2007, 03:21:17 PM »

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Well at least now this game will have a fair chance of me playing it since it no longer will come out at the same time as MP3.

Worse for me, considering I have three games I want to get (Phoenix Wright 3, Eternal Sonata, Halo 3) instead of just the one (Metroid) in August... >=|

Bill: Don't forget Battalion Wars 2 and also in September Endless Ocean or whatever.

I say you are just going to have to drop Halo 3 off your list...besides its not like THAT game needs help breaking a couple million on the sales chart.

I didn't pay attention at first but it seems like the Wii version is just a port of the PS2 one.
Meh, I'll pass then.

. . .?

And?

Lol. It's guilty gear. What could they do for a 2D fighting game on Wii that they couldn't on PS2? (Aside from Waggle controls?)

Ghisy · « **Reply #34 on:** August 09, 2007, 09:19:39 AM »

I don't know, make it Wii exclusive?

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #35 on:** August 09, 2007, 11:26:53 AM »

It is a port, but they are spending the time needed to make the controls good and playable.

Yes they have added Wiimote controls, but they also have support for both classic and gamecube controllers.

And Guilty Gear is one of the best 2D fighting series in really pushing the envelope of new fighting techniques and such. (I am sure there is a Japanese Exclusive game that is better, but not a World Wide Release game.)

Everyone should buy this game so that developers know Wii can support fighters.

No, this is the newest one, and also has the bugs from the Japanese PS2 version ironed out.

"I don't know, make it Wii exclusive?"

The majority of tournament players are still on PS2 for GG so in no way would that have happened. Besides, who cares if it ain't exclusive, the GC couldn't even buy a game like this so for me it's the fact that I'll actually be able to buy it that's got me excited.

Caliban · « **Reply #38 on:** August 09, 2007, 04:37:17 PM »

I don't know about you guys/gals, but to me having the ability to perform special-attacks with a simple gesture or button combination (I can't remember which one it is) is really going to increase my fun with this game, I'm not good at mashing buttons you see.

The mini-games were my favorite part of GG DS! FAUST LOVES THOSE DOORS.

The american website went up P.S. Aksys was nice enough to include a wallpaper gallery and a avatar gallery.

Also looks like each version is getting slightly different box arts:

Mashiro · « **Reply #41 on:** September 07, 2007, 03:39:56 PM »

Nice =D

Oh and those movies . .. make me really hate the new announcer lol.

"Counter . . . counter. . . counter" -_-;;; he sounds so fake. Still looking forward to this game though haha.

I guess they think that a bloodied emo chick will sell the game better on the Wii then a man seething with generic rage.

Who am I to argue.

Flames_of_chaos · « **Reply #43 on:** September 07, 2007, 05:46:08 PM »

If you look at the box arts closely they are a variation of each other just the Wii has A.B.A. zoomed in more and the PS2 box art has Order Sol a little bit zoomed in. I guess Aksys wanted to emphasize these 2 new characters in the third or fourth remake(if im wrong please correct me) of Guilty Gear XX.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #44 on:** September 08, 2007, 12:40:57 AM »

The Wii one has ABA before Sol's sword which removes the wall between them and makes it look like they're doing somethign together, PS2 looks more like Sol left ABA behind and keeps her away with his sword. The Wii version is also brighter to match the average box style for Wii games (which is pretty bright) while the PS2 matches their average style (dark, mostly black and red).

Galford · « **Reply #45 on:** September 09, 2007, 08:22:41 AM »

That's Sol Order on the front.
Is this the first official apperance of that version of Sol in America?

Mashiro · « **Reply #46 on:** September 16, 2007, 04:36:07 PM »

Well, evidently this game ships on October 23 =(

Boo. Its release keeps getting pushed back.

On the plus side, Gamestop has it listed at only $39.99.

couchmonkey · « **Reply #47 on:** September 17, 2007, 05:52:02 AM »

What? They could have had my money if it came out this month...by October I'll be considering ten other games! Boooo.
