Upgrade? BS. All they're doing is putting back the stuff that XX and #R already had. I doubt they'd even rerecord it because the voiceovers for story mode weren't all the same people as the game voices even back then, I don't think. If they do new scenarios, that'd be cool, and I guess they have to for Order Sol and ABA... but this just seems like a cash grab. Hell, Justice and Kliff were still in /, weren't they? :td:Quote:

Title: Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus
Release date: 27th March 2008
Genre: Fighting
Platform: PS2
Price: 6090yen (2079yen for Append version)
Previously thought to be just the US version of the game with all the bugfixes, Accent Core Plus is turning out to be something else entirely.
- Completely brand new fully voiced Story Mode.
- This time the Story Mode takes place after the events of the PS2 GGXX story mode.
- The 25 characters' stories will cover the major events involving the "mystery of Gears", "that man" and conflict with the Post War Administration Bureau, etc.
- The Story Mode has a full branching path Zapping system, with a total of 350 scenarios in all, once again all fully voice, representing the biggest story mode in Guilty Gear home edition history ever.
- 2 old characters brought back in GGXXAC glory: Justice and Cliff, both are also available as part of the story mode.
- Contains all the bug fixes, rebalances, and tune ups that the original version had issues with.
- New modes like Mission Mode where your character levels up from completing missions, a full survival mode, as well as a new Gallery mode where you unlock all the awesome new illustratons.
Once again, if you already have the original JP release of GGXXAC, you can buy the Append disc version for only 2079yen, which is less than 20 USD. Otherwise the full retail version is 6090yen. As far as announced, there is no Wii version and probably no plans for another US release.
BLAH. I shouldn't even bother caring since the GG story is so convoluted now, but part of me still wants it. Good thing we won't have to worry about seeing it on US shelves.
So the plus version would be about $60 to import?
Shame that it's probably not coming out in the US, then. This makes Accent Core seem like it was really rushed out there with minimal effort on the developers' part.
...and after it was such a big deal that Aksys released AC.
This probably isn't even worth it if you don't know Japanese and can't read the story.
...or, unless you're one of those people who NEEDS to rape people with Justice all the time.
I'll probably buy it. I mean this has to be the last one, right?
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus comes out next Thursday. I'm going to be an asshole and pick it up.
This series needs to fucking stop already.
Oh, I agree. I'm a longtime GG fan and even I can't keep all that interested these days. I don't think I'm going to particularly enjoy GG2 Overture, but it's something different at least. Then again, so were Isuka and Judgment. :rolleyes:Quote:

Then we can get back to complaining about how they're still making SF2 games with SSF2THDR and SF4. :p
