This game is the very first entry into the series and it shows, mechanics are in their early stages, the roster is painfully small compared to other games, and versus is local only-- no online support. I recommend this game for collectors, because it is fun to see the origins of the Guilty Gear series and there is some enjoyment to be found here as a game. If you are looking to jump into Guilty Gear however, I would recommend either Accent Core +R, which has all of the characters in this game and many more, or Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator 2, which is the newest game in the series and has a magnificent tutorial for new players.This game is fun for what little it costs, but I would recommend it for collectors rather than people looking to jump into the series.. Axl's thighs.. I recommend this game ONLY to people who love Guilty Gear. If you're just getting into the series, please for the Love of God start with Xrd or Accent Core. This game is a 100% port of the original Guilty Gear for the PS1, and being a direct port is both it's greatest strength and flaw. It's a tough as nails fighter with mechanics that were questionable even during it's release back in 1998. For example, you have two health bars per round, once one goes away you can just spam your Overdrive move an unlimited amount of times. Testament has a poison mechanic here that he has in other games, but the poison doesn't stop at the magic pixel, it flat out KO's you. The dust and instant kill mechanics that are popular in the series work VERY different here. There isn't a dedicated dust button but there also isn't a dedicated way to perform them, like pressing both Slash and Heavy Slash worked on X. Some character moves seem to do it on their own (I've seen May's somersault move hit me with a Dust) In every game after this one, an Instant Kill only gave you a round. If you missed your instant kill, you lost your entire super meter and couldn't instant kill for the rest of the round This game? You press Punch and Kick at the same time, hit the opponent, then if you input hadouken before the victim breaks free, you win the whole fricken match. If your opponent breaks free you can just freely try throwing out your instant kill to win again. Be warned, you can just as easily lose both rounds. This game is the only one in the franchise in which the AI also throws out Instant Kills. You still have your unlockable Justice, Testament and Baiken, however, just like the original release, you can ONLY use them in 2 player VS matches. This game unlike the future installments, does not feature a free battle mode to fight against a CPU opponents and lacks online multiplayer. The game loads very fast to the point where you can barely see the VS Screen with their movelist, thankfully pausing in this game lets you bring up your character's move list.This game has a lot of charm and is still impressive to see how the Guilty Gear franchise started. However, it isn't the best if you're just looking to get into the series. I only wish there was at least online multiplayer, maybe in future update? Regardless, this game is still well worth checking out if you love classic fighting games.Pros: + Amazing Soundtrack by Daisuke Ishiwatari. + Diverse cast, no one plays alike. + Fast game play and loads very quickly. Cons:- No Online Multiplayer- Can't use unlockable characters outside of two players
