Product Description

Product Description
In the far future, humanity succeeded in developing an endless energy called the divine power. But although they were able to obtain wisdom, mankind could not cast aside their foolishness. Tension among the major powers led to the creation of biological weapons that were based on that power - Gears. Justice, the only Gear able to command the legions of biological weapons, went berserk and declared war on all of humanity. That was the beginning of the worst war in history - The Crusades. In response, mankind formed an order of elite knights, and with their participation, Justice was defeated. With her fall, all Gears ceased to function and entered a dormant state. The long-lasted Crusades came to an end, and it seemed like mankind restored peace. However, true history has yet to reveal itself.

5.0 out of 5 stars For Guilty Gear fans only, October 26, 2008

By	Alex York - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

I have been a fan of GG for a long while and was exicted when I heard that the next game would be an action game, but sadly it falls short of my expectations. Don't get me wrong the game is not terrible it just gets repetitive. Most of the missons involve a kind of "capture the base" where you and your enemy battle for control over "ghosts" and then once you've captured all the ghosts you must destroy the enemys "masterghost" which is their base. One thing that disappointed me was the lack of characters, the only ones from the original game series are Sol Badguy and Ky (but Ky is nonplayable) while the rest are newcomers. Also in the game are these things you can summon on the battlefield called "servents" which fight along side you, it kinda reminded me of Chaos Legion for PS2. Overall its a decent game if you're a fan of Guilty Gear if not you might want to look elsewere.
