Guilty
Gear Isuka
Doing
its damnedest to prove to the world that 2D art is still very much alive
and kicking, Sammy Studios has been giving fighting game fans a steady
dose of visual delights with their Guilty Gear series on the Dreamcast
and Playstation 2.Now fans
of the series has a new installment to look forward to with Guilty Gear
Isuka.
While
there are a few new additions to the roster for this title, what will
likely get most game fans’ attention is that Isuka will allow up to
four-player simultaneous play, as well as custom fight combos.Having four people able to play together is often a much-wanted
feature that
many fighting game fans just don’t get to see outside of
titles like Powerstone, and is very welcome in this installment, most
certainly.As for the
custom fight combos, it’ll be interesting to see just how much this
feature is able to accommodate the more finicky fighting fans out there.
Features:
-
4 player simultaneous fighting, combo upgrading and entirely new modes
of play make this the deepest Guilty Gear ever
-
All new fight arenas, and three new characters totaling an amazing 23
fighters in all
-
Side-scrolling Boost mode offers an exciting new single-player action
game experience

-
Blindingly fast play with precise control, an arsenal of killer combos
and the ability to play as teams will make masters out of men
-
Amazing character design and premise from renowned artist Daisuke
Ishiwatari
-
Killer new soundtrack heavily influenced by rock-and-roll and heavy
metal
Unlike
the release of Guilty Gear X2, which quietly hit the seen in the latter
stage of Winter 2003, Guilty Gear Isuka is slated for a November 2004
release.Hopefully this
won’t prove suicide for the title, where such a niche game as this
could very well fall between the cracks under the deluge of high-profile
Christmas titles.
