Game Description: Guilty Gear X is a visually stunning 2D fighter for the PlayStation 2 console. Speed is the name of this game—the faster you fight, the deadlier your arsenal of attacks. Build up the tension gauge for a number of effects, then go for the instant kill! Guilty Gear X is the most explosive version in the series, making full use of the PlayStation 2's enhanced hardware capability. New to the PS2 version are a revamped tension gauge, an instant-kill move (very tricky, yet very rewarding), and the stunning Roman candle—a move that enables experienced players to create their own devastating combos.

There are at least two very distinct experiences a player can have when playing Guilty Gear X. Which one you get depends on whether you're a master or a masher.

According to ESRB, this game contains: Blood, Violence

Then there's Zappa from Guilty Gear X2 (GGX2), Sammy's sequel to the estranged Guilty Gear series. He may not be the main character of the game, but he remains a fighting game character nonetheless. And although his moves follow the basic principles that Ryu laid out more than a decade ago, everything else about him does not.
