April 2025
A great fighting game, easy to learn, but hard to master. It is a decent introduction to the series, I was able to enjoy it with no prior knowledge. The art is amazing, the characters are varied, their individual stories intersect and they feel very good to play. The problems I have with this title are, I suspect, a staple of the genre: many modes impose ridiculous conditions like enemies that heal or can only be damaged by special moves. If this does not bother you, Take your yo-yo / scalpel / guitar / plank / fan / sword / fist / anchor / hair / shadow / [ REDACTED FOR BREVITY ] and go a-hurtin'!

April 2025
Let’s cut straight to it: Guilty Gear X2 #Reload is the peak of 2D fighting games, no contest. Arc System Works took the already cracked formula of Guilty Gear X2 and somehow made it even more OD. This isn’t just a game—it’s a chaotic anime battle fever dream that slaps harder than a counter-hit Dust combo. If you’re looking for that sweet dopamine drip of high-skill ceiling fights with absolutely zero chill, welcome to Valhalla. This game is straight-up cracked. The roster is stacked with 23 giga-chad characters, each more ridiculous than the last. You’ve got Sol Badguy, the walking fire hazard; Venom, who’s basically playing billiards while you’re trying to play Street Fighter; and Faust, the 7-foot tall eldritch clown who fights with a giant scalpel. Everyone’s busted in their own way, and that’s what makes it chef’s kiss. The mechanics? Absolute galaxy-brain level. The tension gauge encourages you to go goblin mode with aggressive plays, while Roman Cancels let you pull off combos that look like you spent years training in some anime dojo. The balance tweaks in #Reload make it feel like ArcSys was handing out buffs and nerfs while sipping energy drinks and laughing maniacally—and somehow it works. This game looks like someone animated a heavy metal fever dream and then cranked up the saturation. The hand-drawn sprites are so clean they might as well be museum pieces, and every move is dripping with over-the-top anime energy. The stages are equally unhinged—one second you’re fighting in a literal hellscape, the next you’re in a gothic cathedral with flying gears. It’s a vibe. And the soundtrack? Absolute fire. We’re talking headbanging, air-guitar-shredding bangers like "Holy Orders (Be Just or Be Dead)" that’ll live rent-free in your head for eternity. Every match feels like you’re front row at a metal concert where the mosh pit is just two insane fighters duking it out. #Reload has all the drip you could ask for. Arcade mode lets you brawl through some wild anime plotlines (half of which make zero sense, but who cares). Survival and mission modes are here for when you’re feeling masochistic, and the training mode is top-tier for labbing those combos that’ll have your friends throwing controllers. Multiplayer is where this game cooks, though. Local fights are peak couch chaos, and if you find someone online, it’s like discovering an endangered species. Treasure it. Real talk: this game isn’t for everyone. The learning curve is vertical—like, “climbing Mt. Everest in a snowstorm” vertical. You don’t just pick up Guilty Gear; you commit to it like a toxic relationship. And yeah, the online scene’s a bit of a ghost town these days, but that’s what Discord fight clubs are for. Guilty Gear X2 #Reload isn’t just a fighting game—it’s a lifestyle. It’s chaotic, it’s sweaty, and it’s absolutely unhinged in the best way possible. If you’re ready to throw yourself into the blender of anime combat and come out the other side grinning like a maniac, this is your game. Brain rot never felt so good. Score: 9/10 Pros: - Insane combat mechanics that slap harder than reality - Characters with enough sauce to start their own food truck - God-tier visuals and a soundtrack that summons lightning Cons: - You’ll need a PhD in fighting games to not get bodied - Online multiplayer is basically a mythological creature
