This game is fast paced and action packed. All the moves are easy, the versus mode is fun, controls are tight. 2 minor complaints: The game is too short, and the music leaves a little to be desired. But you'll be too busy fighting hordes of enemies to notice.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Game Ever, December 7, 2011

This review is from: Advance Guardian Heroes (Video Game)

This Brawler game is amazing. Arcade Brawlers like TMNT and Bucky O'hare and Double Dragon haven't seen much love, but Advance Guardian Heroes progresses the malnourished game genre with its intense gameplay and innovative counter system.

The story is great; you are this rampaging hero that has been resurrected in an effort to stop the evil forces of some Magic and Machinery Empire that is threatening the world. Every stage introduces new environments and a special character boss with a uniquely strong attribute whom you must fight and then absorb their powers. This all leads up to a fight with the biggest Blackest Boss Ever.

It has simple controls for Combat, Melee or Magic. Diving toward enemies is loads of fun. You will find yourself pummeling a ton of foes against overwhelming odds while in a dog pile within each stage. Beat the game on Harder difficulties to unlock other Modes like "ENDLESS;" in which an endless supply of bad guys will poor into an arena while you play exterminator. When you collect enough crystals and donate them for research, the game unlocks all 20 characters.

After I unlocked everything, beating it on the Hardest mode, I focus all my attention on TRAINING mode where you can play as any Character, set the 3 CPU opponents on Random Characters, set your own rules (Teams or no Teams) in any stage, for a crazy free-for-all fight-fest.
It's just so cool.

Don't see how anyone who enjoys brawlers couldn't enjoy this one. Perhaps it is because this brawler turns Brawling games into a sort of puzzle challenge, balancing Blocking Countering Magic spells and Attacks. You can't just Mash the buttons and expect to win, this game requires skills and will teach you skills.

Also if you have a child who wants a game they can beat easily, in training mode you can adjust the player's handicap to 50+ and make the 3 opponents low like a Handicap level of 3+. It will make that 3 or 4 year old feel like a master! LOL!

Me? I set my guy (Gingiro) and everyone else (random foes and colors) at Level 10+ and Play one Training round after the next (Elevator stage) for hours on end.

Enjoy! and great game TREASURE! (the game developers)

5.0 out of 5 stars Guardian Heroes 2 vs. Sega Saturn guardian Heroes, January 29, 2006

All in all this game is amazing!!!

I'm sure all yuo old school sega fans out there know what I'm talking about. The ground breaking genre defining Guardian Heroes!

orgionally, the first Guardian Hero game came out on the legendary sega saturn and there was and still is nothing like it. If you haven't played the first one then your out of luck because it's sold out(lucky me, I have a copy ^_^)

The story may be confusing if you missed out on the first GH because the people who are being assimilated into the main character are actually from the first game! It was a bit sad to know that they've all died, but it was absolutely a must for the developing storyline.

If you've played the first one I'm sure you'll agree the way the story goes is PERFECT! I wish I could give this game 10 stars...Long Live Prince Valgar!!!
