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:
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s 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 (1667–1745)
