I agree with AKA from what I’ve seen so far. AC seems as different from Slash as XX is from X.
Sol was pretty beastly in GG1, too.
But then again, so was everybody.
Instant Kill >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Everything :wasted:
I just don’t know about another revision so soon when people are just really getting into Slash.
I mean…for example, you take Robert Garcia in KOF 94’…six years later you try to play him in KOF 2000, and there’s barely any similarity into how he’s being played.
Whereas you take Chipp Zanuff in GGX…and six years later in Guilty Gear Slash…
Arc probably doesn’t consider it XXX, because they didn’t put in enough work from themselves to consider it a true sequel. At least they set the standard high, I just wish they would wait a bit before releasing revisions. I mean hell didn’t slash just come out a couple of months ago? They should have just worked on Slash longer and made this revision Slash. I don’t have much to complain about cause I never bought Slash for the PS2 but I’m sure a lot of people who keep buying all these revisions are mightly pissed. Which is what happened with SF2. “I just bought SF2 Champion Edition!” “Dude, they just released Turbo.” “FUCK!”
I don’t acknowledge GG1 when it comes to comparing character growth over time, that shit is like SF1 to me.
Well, as I’ve said on other boards, the timing of this is poor if you take our market into consideration (American importers). However, we’re a tiny tiny part of the overall market, and Slash has been out in Japan for a year.
Chipp in X plays nothing like Chipp in Slash. You really would have had to get into X to notice that, though. The match dynamic back then was very different.
Took the words right outta my mouth Titanium. Their main market isn’t the American importers who have to order it and mod their systems and all. The Japanese (their market) have been playing this for months so it isn’t some kinda sinister scheme to them.
If we see that guy added who’s art was in that 360 system skin, I think it’ll be safe to say that they’ve had this planned to some extent.
so moves in the air cancel into air dashes? sounds cool i guess
[media=youtube]c8WiWu6Vr38[/media] new vid as of 5 hours ago, Axl vs HOS.

It’s kinda weird, on one hand we have Capcom who hasn’t given us a new, useable SF game in ages. On the other hand Arc’s been pumping out GGXX revisions like crazy. It’s like, everytime I think “Okay, I wanna sit down and really learn #R/Slash”, I hear about a new GG in the works and it kills my motivation.
But anyway, if this test comes to the Kansai area I’ll be sure to check it out. I hope it does.
Woah what the hell did you see all the crazy axl changes? LIke the cr. HS pulling in, or the two hit cr. S(I think it was slash) and his new move weirddd… I like the new life bars they look really cool. I want to know what they are doing to slayer!!!
Here’s a bit. There was more info too earlier, about pilebunker getting worse and such. The changes below were written by french player Madjid who is staying in Japan currently.
Just a reminder that this is very early beta, so there’ll be a lot of things changing. Also, there are (as usual) a lot of rumors going around about changes too, so be sure to keep that in mind.

that new Axl move where he spins his weapon in the air is pretty crazy. And I also like the new flaming dive attack. I just don’t like the idea of Johnny having a lvl 9 mist finer… lol.
Thanks alot 9Tnine. I know you are getting info from dustloop, but I frequent these fourms much more than dustloop & it’s nice to have the info here. You always give the proper credits, and you never try to pass off the info as something you gathered just to get praise. So I appreciate your post, links and your 2 cents. Please keep it up.
man, another guilty gear? i was just gonna learn slash after evo. …
Are they going to take eddie out? I heard the person who did eddie died. Don’ quote me on that though, i think i read it on wikipedia.
that was disproven as mere rumor
Thank you god…or Zazz ;3
I think he died between Guilty Gear X -> XX, which is why they changed his name from Zato-1 to Eddie (storywise, Eddie took over Zato’s body)
I’ll admit that this is really fast considering how Slash just came out, but why would you COMPLAIN about so many updates??! It blows my mind! Why is SF2 so good? Because it had so many ‘silly’ incarnations. Same with VF.
I think we’re lucky as a community to have a company that puts so much into a fighting game, and a great one at that. It’s 'bout time we all jump on the GG Train.
the guy who played Zato in GG1 and GGX died and they made it that Eddie got in charge to explain the voice change in GGXX.
slayer changes sound really cool and interesting. i’ll adopt to whatever happens to him 6hs d-step cancel removal is very strange but in some ways it makes sense …still waiting for the vids though
looking on some bbs’s now
I was gonna import Slash soon, but now it looks like I shouldn’t bother. ;_;
All this GG love is great, but seriously Arc, where’s my Hokuto no Ken PS2 port?
