    Guilty Gear is a good fighting game easy to play but tremendously challenging. Despite its shortcomings as a scant roster, few game modes and short duration, it can be very fun for the most hardcore players, either alone or in company.

    The original Guilty Gear gets a Nintendo Switch release more than twenty years after its debut in what is essentially a nostalgic release that does not attempt to change history. The frantic, action-packed combats and amazing soundtrack are still intact, but the other components of the game are visibly dated and aren't making an effort to keep up with more recent fighting games.

    The original Guilty Gear is... fine, it's fine.

    GG shows a commendable amount of passion however due to it being a first in a series and the hardware limitations, it falls short. While the music is good, the rest of the sound effects are compressed to hell and back for the ost, the sprites are good looking while stationary, but start looking very off when in motion and the gameplay is fine, but now that it's on the Switch, with what is ostensibly the best fighting game ever made; Guilty Gear XX, the cracks show and it becomes very unattractive

    Guilty Gear has a lot of charm and a lot of heart, while it's not a game I ever go back to, it is one I respect a lot and it warms my cold black heart knowing Daisuke and his team made something of this dinky little ps1 game.

    buen juego de peleas, para recordar viejos tiempos, fáciles de controlar pero duro de pasar, debe estar en la colección de cualquier fan de la saga
