FIghting Guilty styleMay 20, 2006

"Ber"
This is a great fighter for the Nintendo DS. With hardcore rock and roll tunes and anime style graphics, it can't be beat. Jumping up and down platforms in an almost Super Mario-fashion, the game gets pretty intense and is not for the faint of heart or hand. Breaks are needed every once in awhile to rest your hands or you'll be very sore very soon. With over two dozen characters to choose from, the game is deep and well planned out. The Dragon Ball Z fighting game for the DS does not compare to this one at all and seems very sluggish in comparison and also very naive and boring. This one is pretty hardcore and requires a lot of focus and hand energy, which makes for a great fighting title. Perhaps not the best for the younger ones in the audience, but for older gamers, this can't be beat, as the graphics and sound effects are a bit gory and there are some sexual references in the game, but that's true to the Guilty Gear series and most top-notch fighters, except some like Super Smash Bros. Melee and the like.

This game is guilty of being a messFeb 13, 2007

When it comes to third party developers bringing established franchises to the DS, they either utilize just what the DS can do very well, they completely ignore what the DS can do, or they make a sloppy attempt at kind of taking advantage of what the DS can do. The long running Guilty Gear series, considered by many to be the best 2-D fighting series on the market in the past few years, makes it's debut on the DS with Guilty Gear: Dust Strikers; and it does the aforementioned three things that third party DS games tend to do. Utilizing both of the DS' screens for fighting mayhem, Dust Strikers moves the game's traditional one on one fighting format into an all out four player free for all, and it's not for the better. Thanks to an unbalanced fighting engine and the game's haphazard use of the dual screens, the fighting action becomes nothing but one big messy button masher. Not to mention that for a Guilty Gear game, there is hardly as much depth to it as we've seen before on other editions of the series. There's also some lame mini-games thrown in for good measure using the stylus and touch screen, which are hardly worth even checking out. There are a few good points to Dust Strikers though: the character sprites and graphics and animation look crisp, clean, and sharp most of the time. Plus there's a heaping amount of fighters to pick from which is a nice plus for longtime fans of the series; and of course, there's a rocking soundtrack to boot as fans would come to expect, although it does sound a bit grainy coming through the DS' small speakers. It's sad that Majesco just had to tamper with a winning formula for Dust Strikers, and it's even more disappointing at how messy it all turned out. Longtime fans may want to give it a look, everyone else can leave it on the shelf.

great gameMay 31, 2010
By O. Arias i dont care that the characters are smaller than on tv, the sound is an octave lower, the controls are single button presses, i hated the down forrword movements anyways. Plus there easier to learn, the character doesnt turn around when theres someone behind you the game has lots of moves to address the problem, i make due with what the game has. I can still create combo links with it, it is a desent game worth more than 4 dollars, used come on, there are alot worser games, than this on nintendo ds.

Heaven or Hell?Feb 23, 2010

"The Critic"
If a game was judged by its presentation alone, then "Guilty Gear: Dust Strikers" would be one of the best titles for the DS. My first real GG experience being the Gameboy Advance port, "Dust Strikers" surpasses that by leaps and bounds. The 2D graphics go down smooth and the music alone makes the game worthy of the Guilty Gear name. Of course, the game's biggest drawback is that it takes GG from its traditional one-on-one fighting format and into four-way brawls that quickly degenerate into a button-mashing affair. To make use of the DS' touch screen, "Dust Strikers" throws in 7 mini-games where high scores unlock special moves for fighter Robo-Ky. But it gives the feeling of playing a whole other game. While the whole setup's not a total loss, one can't help but think if this title had stuck with the old formula or even ripped off the "Bleach" and "Naruto" games, it would've been much better.
This game is rated T for Teen: Violence.

this is pretty much the only fighting game option for the ds. if you don't "get it" i doubt if anyone outside of japan does. the action is a updated version of 2-d fighting. it is fairly difficult, yet not as difficult as versions for the other consoles. the art style is cool and no matter what it will always be better than mortal kombat.
