Guilty Gear Isuka Full PC Game Overview

Guilty Gear Isuka Download Free Full Game (Japanese: ギルティギア 鶍 Hepburn: Giruti Gia Isuka?) is a 2D fighting video game developed by Arc System Works and published by Sammy Corporation. Announced by Arc in September, it was first released on December 17, 2003 in Japanese arcades as the fifth installment of the Guilty Gear series. Later, the game was ported for a release on the PlayStation 2 (PS2), Xbox, and Windows in Japan. The PS2 version was brought to North America by Sammy, and, in Europe, the home console version was released by 505 Game Street and the PC version by Zoo Digital Publishing.

While the gameplay remained almost the same as in previous titles, the game introduced a four-player battle mode, and the PS2 version included new features to the series, including a scrolling adventure, a customization mode, and two new characters. Guilty Gear Isuka received mixed critical reviews. It was praised for its visual, music and customization features. However, although some aspects of the new gameplay—such as the two fighting planes and the turn button—were praised as original, their implementation was criticized. The removal of features present in previous titles was also not well received by critics.

Gameplay

Combat system

The basic gameplay system of Guilty Gear Isuka is like the other games in the series.[1] The game uses a four attack button configuration that consists of punch, kick, slash, and high slash.[2] Unlike previous games, it features a «turn» button, since a character does not automatically turn around if its opponent moves to the other side of the screen.[3] Each character (or team) starts a fight with at least a «soul»; when a character life bar is emptied, its life is filled while the player lost a soul. If the life is depleted when the player has no souls, it is defeated.[2] It also features previous installments features like the tension gauge, which allows the player to perform super moves, and the burst gauge, which allows the player to break combinations and super moves.

The game introduces a four-player option in Versus Mode, giving a player four characters who can fight two-on-two, three-on-one or everyone-for-themselves.[7] There are two fighting planes, one in the foreground and the other behind it.[8]

Another innovation was Boost Mode:[9] a two-player, side-scrolling, arcade-style beat 'em up mode not included in the arcade version, in which a player fights enemy waves to accumulate items, health and experience.[10][11] For the Xbox, this mode was adapted for online play with Xbox Live,[12] supporting up to 16 players.[13] Experience points from Boost Mode can be used in the new Robo-Ky II Factory mode, in which a player can customize a robot named Robo-Ky II by teaching him moves, combos, or one of 65 special attacks from other characters.[7][10][11][14] In addition to the attacks, other aspects such as jump height, offense, defense, recovery time, tension, and speed can be improved.[10][14]

The game also features other modes: Color Edit, a palette swap editor that allows the player to customize nearly every aspect of the characters, including buckles and hair;[15] Training, in which a player can practice with (and against) computer-controlled opponents[1] and Arcade, similar to the survival mode featured in other fighting games.[1][4]

Reception

Guilty Gear Isuka was the 176th-bestselling Japanese title in 2004, with 74,270 copies sold for PlayStation 2 as of December 26.[40] It was «Best Fighting Game» at the Best of E3 2004 Awards from IGN,[41] and was nominated for «Best Sequel Fighting» at the 2004 National Academy of Video Game Testers and Reviewers (NAVGTR) Awards.[42] The game received mixed reviews from critics, with a score of 75.56% at GameRankings and 73/100 at Metacritic.[31][32] Allgame's Damian Francis gave the game three-and-a-half stars out of five;[34] Famitsu‍ '​s four reviewers scored it 7, 7, 6, and 7 (out of 10) respectively, with a total score of 27 out of 40.[35]

Although the introduction of two planes and the turning button were considered good ideas in theory,[15][38][39] both features were heavily criticized by reviewers.[1][36][38] Jeremy Dunham of IGN, Manny LaMancha of GamePro and Benjamin Turner of GameSpy felt it difficult to fight one-on-one when a player can start a cat-and-mouse game,[15][37][39] while GameSpot's Greg Kasavin and Brian Gee of Game Revolution found the features to cause «chaos».[1][38] Turner said it deprived the player of the ability «to have a normal Guilty Gear X2-style match», and Dunham said the computer reacted faster.[15][39] David Smith of 1UP.com called it an «irrational control scheme».[33] The perceived poor execution of its new features led GameSpy to give it a special «It Sounded Good on Paper» award.
