Guilty Gear 2 Overture is the first entry in this fighting series to use 3D graphics. Arc System Works made it an exclusive Xbox 360 title which is similar to Devil May Cry & Dynasty Warriors. Its release date is set to 2008. Heaven or Hell?

So...the graphics are kind of sucky, they changed Sol into Ky but with brown hair and it will play like dynasty warriors? God i'm disappointed.
I was kind of hoping this would be like DMC or NG only with the awesome characters from GG...but i guess not. I might still try it out but i have very low expectations right now.
I, too, tried the jap(?) demo.
I love GG and DotA, and while I sucked at the demo I think it's because I don't understand moonspeak and didn't know what the hell I'm supposed to do.
This game has potential, I think. For DotA lovers, and who are not into those semi-realistic'ish KOEI series.
only main player model may look like a PS2 or Wii game but those consoles never handle this many units at the same time on screen. this game is not a simple action but basically RTS with fighter character as a master unit. totally new genre. not close to DMC nor NG at all. far more RTS than Dynasty Warriors but with simple map. rules and systems are bit too complicated and tempo is also too hectic so you guys might wanna hold final comment until english demo finally arrives if possible and know what's what exactly.

@GriftGFX: well Dragon age extracted is suppose to be arround 20 gigs but the download was only 8 gigs or 15 gigs...procedure might be different for newer games (2 Hours ago)

45 minutes for this game would have to be like... 3+ megabytes per second. My Comcast can't do that. (3 Hours ago)

My FFOW DL is almost 12.9 gigs and like 95% done. (3 Hours ago)

Steam appears to download extracted and installed, there's no install process once you finish downloading a game. (3 Hours ago)

D2D file right now is 9.2 GB's. I think it was less when I was downloading it (now its extracted) I am pretty sure Steam works the same way. 12 gb is probably the extracted size :P (3 Hours ago)

Played the demo. Sucks ass (and I love Guilty Gear).
the demo was one piece of crap
Kinda tired of these arcady games... At least make the HUD A) more attractive and B) less in the way...
And I thought this was a shooter for some reason at the name (not familiar with the GG series...)
welcome to 1999.
i think the graphics are pretty nice for the Wii...lol.
True.
