[Guilty Gear Igzeks sharp Reload slash] is the most awesome name ever.

Aba is in it, and her stage as well. Another character, not usable during the test, is rumoured to be Sol as a holy knight.
And other small balance adjustments.

The last time we talked about it, exodus, I think, said Arc System is in good shape, but I still think everyone is gone.

So they're turning into the likes of Capcom? Why! They just had to make a final chapter to make us happy...

That name looks like a typo.

I can't believe they'd put the word "Slash" in the name, it's like they're actively encouraging Sol/Ky mansex doujinshi.

At least this is guaranteed to play decently, I never want to relive the horror that is GG Isuka ever again.

GGXX is becoming the Virtua Fighter 4 of the 2D game world.

The only way I see this as bad is if Sammy decides to release another console version of XX Reload. Then again, a precedent as been made already with $20 Reload for Xbox. Still, I'm a bit annoyed at how GGXX is becoming no so much rehashed, but just revised. Think about it. GGXX is just a highly modified version of GGX (with new characters, but mostly with the same backgrounds, graphics). Then comes XX Reload (+1 character selectable who was in the original XX) and now new Reload (+1 character).

As a whole this feels really unnecessary. Like basically everyone else has said, couldn't they just do the next chapter of the game rather than throwing us a few new characters and backgrounds and doing a little tweaking?

What are we up to basically, the equivalent of Super Turbo? There's been Guilty Gear X, Guilty Gear X Plus, Guilty Gear XX, Guilty Gear XX #Reload, and now this. Mehhh. Four games with basically the same stuff. Maybe even some I've missed.

No, because they're poor.
Also, if Leopardon is in it, I may very well buy the port.
But on the other hand, I never bought a GG game since the original on PS1, so I may not be Sammy's best client.

Some translated stuff from that page and elsewhere:

Looks like some pretty significant balance changes o_O

Well, I'm really excited to see Sol as a Holy Knight, just to see what he would look like and stuff. Has he ever appeared in any of the Mangas or are there pics of him in the CD Dramas back when he and Ky Kiske were on the same side?

Still waiting to be able to play as Raven, Fannie and The Man like everyone else.

I'd like a playable Leopardon too.

Well, I was happy to see ABA in it...

Though I actually never got GG:Isuka, because from what I heard, there wasn't much new and different from what I had, GGX2, plus the manual turning-around was dumb (I assume they fixed that?). I just wonder why they have to get going back and tweaking the old game - I mean, I appreciate improvements and trying to fix up things, but do that for a new game. Do they not have the resources or something?

I don't know, I may end up getting it for some new GG fix, but if it really is just a rehash/remix of the old...

There's no official manga, but there's plenty of Ishiwatari artwork of Sol as a holy knight. Well...several pictures at least.

Screw balance, I play with my friends who stink at fighters anyway. We just want a new gaming experience, not a tweaked one.

I dumped an old wallpaper of Sol as a Holy Knight into the image board for you.

But they're taking out the stupid mini-character doubles that everyone hated and adding fish to Dizzy's hit animation! What more could you want?

And judging by his look, me thinks arc systems will pull a Dan/Akuma by placing Sol's head on Ky's body.

It's actually not too different from his existing design, so they could probably edit his existing sprite. Dumping his head on Ky's body would produce more amussing results though.

I won't complain about a new GG, as long as they make an easy downloadable PC version...I'm tired of being charged again and again for almost the same product. I mean, I'd be tired if I ever paid for one of them, but even in my case find I this "customer milking" annoying and abusive.

Well an update once again...What I find the most ridiculus, is that after 3 version of GGXX they still didn't find the time to give an IK to Dizzy.....yeah, whatever....

I really hope this one will be a Money vacuum in order to launch GG4.....

Supposedly it's not in her character (she's "innocent"...ugh) and having Gamma Ray makes up for that because she's still blasting you with a huge-ass laser, apparently.

There's an "official" manga for GGX, but the art's ugly and I didn't buy it. I can't remember the art anymore, so It must be ugly.

This is what happens when you don't use the qualifier "That I know of". You end up looking foolish. So, don't make the same mistake as me. I'll go takea shame shower now.

Dizzy not having a Instant Kill kinda adds to her personality IMO.

Some of these updates are kinda dumb to me. Good thing this is a beta test. I hope a few things gets chaneged before final release, mainly slayer and eddie, and maybe give back dizzy her orginal fishes.

Yeah, but if they tweaked him?
At least, the sprite is already done...
Also, Kliff and Justice never appeared in arcade, have they?

I never really played or bought a GG game, so I won't mind the rehashed stuff... I would just like to be sure I'm buying the last and final upgrade when I eventually buy a GG game... :p

It's less being tweaked and more actually becoming a character.

And, while I believe EX characters have been hidden selectables in some releases, no, pretty sure Kliff and Justice have never been in the arcades.
