Guilty Gear Wii

Post by Curlypaul »

Is it worth getting? most of the reviews I've seen say its about average but then its not really a mainstream game so I thought I'd ask you good folks on here if any of you had played it/ would recommend it?

I too am curious about this title... or any fighter for the Wii for that matter. Anything to use the Hori stick!

From what I've heard, it's pretty much like any other Guilty Gear X or XX game...that is to say it is freaking awesome! Just don't use the waggle controls...definitely go for the Hori.

It's great, provided you have an arcade stick and a few classic controllers, which have great dpads incidentally (not quite Saturn level, but great).
The waggle controls in it are horrible

Everyone above me is right. It's a great game but you can't do it with the regular controller if you want to enjoy it.

Why not buy the PS2 version? Unfortunately the PS2 is not coming to PAL territories so I have to import it sometime.

My 2 cents:read around about how the game plays with a classic controller as the controls as the biggest dilema for the Wii version.

It's only $30 on Amazon (which means free shipping!) so I think I may pick it up.

I intend to get this, I never really actually PLAY Guilty Gear games that much, I just look at the attract mode and droll at the graphics to be honest, but thats worth €30 to me ;)

Yeah I heard about the motion controls being a bit ropey but coming with a classic should ease the pain, plus its a good excus to get one of these beauties Wii hori stick.

I dont have any other platform that it would be on other than the wii

@baphomet_irl I've never owned one of these but its the graphical style that has me interested in this now. Strange that I'm in no way a graphic whore - photorealism you can keep but I havent been as excited about some of the new wave of stylised games like this and Dragonball Z BT3, and No more Heroes since I was a boy
