Well, X2 that is. Amazingly Blockbuster had it and 3 copies at that. First impressions are that it is very similiar to GGX, so its not "quite" a sequel in the way Capcom handled Street Fighter Alpha 2 or the KOF series. However it is MUCH more polished then the GGX and has lasting gameplay value due to all the secrets to obtain. I haven't digged deep into the new features in the engine yet but overall its a good game, could of been a bit more but hey, at least were getting it in America!

No badmouthing it until you've "digged deep".

Heh heh. I know how you feel. I'm stuck in "we don't cotton to no stores other than Wal-Marts" land... This place sucks.

It's funny, the more I dink around with GGX2 the more I think of it as a full sequel instead of an upgrade of GGX. The changes to the game engine aren't as dramatic as they were from GG to GGX but they do make the game play a lot better and I am glad to see they didn't feel the need to needlessly fiddle with the game engine by adding strikers or some such nonsense. When you factor in the new characters, the minor changes to the returning characters, and the sometimes radically different EX versions of the cast, GGX2 feels like a real change and not just a modification of GGX.
