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:
“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 (1858–1915)
“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)
“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
