Reception
Reviews for the game were positive. IGN gave the game an 8.0, praising its graphics and gameplay, but criticizing how the AI makes the game difficult. GameSpot gave it a 7.9, praising its gameplay, soundtrack and artwork, but also criticizing its lack of game modes. Game Informer has named the game one of the top ten weirdest of all time. But overall Guilty Gear has remained a cult classic among hardcore fighting game fans and has gone to spawn two main sequels, spin-offs and a 3D action-adventure hybrid strategy game semi-sequel known as Guilty Gear 2: Overture.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybodys face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (16671745)
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“Aesthetic emotion puts man in a state favorable to the reception of erotic emotion.... Art is the accomplice of love. Take love away and there is no longer art.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (18581915)
