Guilty Gear XX Accent Core for the Wii, is nothing really new, I am new to the series, but the game has the same modes of the others Guilty Gear games, it is a fighting game, know for its insane battles, where everything is very fast. After the intro movie you'll see the title screen there, there you can choose to play one of the game modes that includes including Arcade, vs. CPU, M.O.M. ( Medal of Millionarie), Training and Player vs. Player. You'll probably play the Arcade mode first, there, I saw how the game can be hard. My Favorite character is Ky Kiske, I played through various easy battles, until I got to Sol-Badguy, there, he kicked my butt a thousand times before I could defeat him, and then I had to fight the last battle, damn hard too, and some characters are way more powerful than the others, for example, Potemkin. And there are lots of things to unlock.

Now lets talk about the graphics of the game, there are many characters to play with, and everyone has awesome animation sprites, everyone looks very good, to tell the truth, I think that along with Odin Sphere this game has the best 2D graphics, and the backgrounds look awesome, too. In this game, everything you'll listen is rockin-roll and believe me, its very good. One thing that I really loved in this game are the battles, I loved them because they al seem so epic, imagine this: your opponent jump and you jump at the same time, then - still in the air - he dashes at you and you dash at him, and then the swords clash in the same time and nobody gets any damage, that happens in 3 seconds, and it is awesome, it really seems that your watching a cartoon on the TV.

But not everything is good, the main issue of this game are the controls, if you dont have a GC controller or a Classic controller, you'll have to use the Wii-Mote, but the controls are just broken. With the motions, tou shake the controller to perform a slash attack and to do a heavy slash, you shake your controller hardly, it is just impossible to perform combos like that, but you can use to Wii-Mote D-pad to attack, but it doesnt work, it is very uncomfortable to do this. One more thing is that to perform special attacks you just hold C or Z and shake your controller, that is way too easy, but special attacks should take a lot of practice to do these special attacks.

After all, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core is a excellent game, but to really enjoy it, you need the right Controller, but it doesn't come with the Wii...
