Sammy is bringing GGXX to the US as GGX2, in the first quarter of 2003.

Hell yeah! Sounds good to me! I love me some Guilty Gear... thanks Sammy!

I don't like the name change either for some reason. Guilty Gear XX just sounds better.

I think it's so it doesn't sound pornographic like XXX... especially with BMX XXX coming out.

Artificial or not

For the record though I like the old name better too...

But hey, Sammy didn't have to bring the game out yo. If market research tells them that GGX2 will sell a few more copies, it's their name to change I guess. I'm just glad the game is coming.

...what happens when the real GGX2 is made? Are they going to call it Super GGX2 Turbo?

Maybe they're planning a third part, and they can't quite call it GG XXX.

yes it will be US.

and it has story mode, survival, mission mode and EX-characters.......

not to mention the addition of Robo-ky (as a separate character, with new art unlike in GGX) Justice and Kliff - and their stages

If there's a story mode does that mean it's actually going to have actual endings instead of just a single shot of the characters?

Sure they can, only Tecmo would have to have a big part in it. They'd also have to release it on the XBox!

It seems logical to me that Arc would make GGXXX, after all, why would they add an X in the first place?

Don't forget that the original Guilty Gear had no X... they didn't call it Guilty Gear 2 so I don't think they'd ever make a real "Guilty Gear X2" sometime in the future. Much less fuck-up potential than the US "Tales of" releases.

And nobody mentioned 'XXX' aka "Triple X"... they're only letters after all.

Just a question : where does this metal-ky comes from? is he just a quicker / stronger version like the hidden characters of MSHvsSF or is he completely original?

gear ky was sorta like a pallette swap of ky except he had a new really damaging super (aegis high, think SF3 shin shoryuken), a 1 hit Ride the Lightning, different walk, duck, and standing animations, a lot more noisy, less comboability, different specials, much faster, and took a bit more damage

X2 is a shitty assed name. but i mean what do u expect cosidering its a naomi based game coming out on the anti-dremcast ps2. Bad karma man.

Also american executives paranoid about localizing a supeior japanese fighting game product, once again fuck up a sweet game.

Its just like the dilbert principal: The people in management are the least itelligent, they get promoted because of good hair.

That is the source of the us's financial woes.

it's sad... I would have bought GGX2 (and I personally think GGX2 is a fine name, sound better in letter form then double-double GGXX, and since fans tend to like sequels over upgrades X2 will probably sell better with causal games who enjoyed X instead of having them pass it over thinking the extra X is akin to Capcom slapping "Super" on a title) opps... I sidetracked ^__^' anyway... I would have bought GGX2 if it was a straight arcade port... but knowing Kliff, Justice, AND Metal/Robo/Gear-Ky are in offical bumps it up to my "MUST OWN!!!" list...

I'm a big fan of any game nice enough to put characters removed for an arcade sequel back into the home ports ^__^
