XBX Guilty Gear XX #Reload - NEW Import

   Released last May in Japanese arcades, Sammy ports "Guilty Gear XX Sharp Reload" to the Xbox nearly a year after the Playstation 2 debut. A new fighting character based on Ky Kiske named Robo Ky joins the cast of characters and everyone else enjoys new attacks that have been added to their repertoire of moves. Robo Ky looks like a pimped out Gear version of Ky and blasts beams from his eyes (like X-Man Cyclops) and shoots four-finned missiles at opponents. Gamers may enjoy Story mode, Mission Mode, Medal of Millionaire Mode and a Gallery mode filled with artwork. A training mode gives players a chance to hone and refine their attack and defense before plunging into the thick of battle. Practice overdrive attacks as well as instant kill moves.

Similar to the PS2 conversion of GGXX #Reload, the Xbox version is based on the version 2 build of the arcade game. Most coin-ops should also be updated from the somewhat glitchy version 1 build by now if you're into trying before buying. The Xbox version of Gear XX features Xbox Live connectivity for online bouts as well as voice chatting support for the Live headset. A new character is also exclusive (so far) to the Xbox version for 20 combatants and unlockable fighters. As a bonus for importers, all in-game text, menus, etc in the game are in English. A nifty slipcase also holds the game intact.
