Talk:Guilty Gear X2

message: This article is irritating and confusing. Very little of the content has anything to ACTUALLY do with the US release, which is really what is relevant. It's more or less defeating the purpose of an encyclopedia entry, and it practically needs supplemental material to be completely understood. Khorosho (talk) 23:30, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Needs a Rewrite 

message: One of the references () is a French site with a Babel Fish translation built into it. What's up with that? Shouldn't it be listed as the original page and annotated that it's in French? How do I do that? — WindOwl 00:32, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Babel Fish? 

message: Several sites confirm the release date as September 11th.  They are as follows.
:Gamespot Article
:EBgames
:Amazon.com
Unless these change, the article should reflect this date. DbishopNWF 14:54, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps placing a date for both versions would be more acceptable?  Also, I partially agree with taking this with a grain of salt.  At least it's not Blizzard Entertainment. DbishopNWF 17:08, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Accent Core US Release Date 

message: Is it worth noting that Microsoft's Xbox 360 Backwards Compatability list incorrectly shows this game as Backwards Compatible?
Yet, the US release & Xbox Live function correctly? --90.201.23.65 (talk) 20:51, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  EU Backwards Lie 

message: I'm the (almost sole) author of the Russian version of this article and am kinda interested in the statement "A cheaper "Append" version of this game requires the Λ Core disk upon start-up". I couldn't find any proof of it, as most relevant google links point to Wikipedia or sites that copy its content. Can anyone show me any proof at a non-wiki site? The disc fact itself is important enough to mention in the article, I think, but I can't do so without sources. ru:Ari  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.226.233.158 (talk) 11:10, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it's true. There's a "regular version" (stand alone) and an "append version" (that requires the "vanilla" Guilty Gear XX Λ Core disc). The official page mentions both versions. It's in Japanese, but I don't believe the game has been released elsewhere, and... well, it doesn't get more official than that. You can see the covers at the bottom of the page: "regular version" on the left, "append version" on the right. Erigu (talk) 19:52, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Tnx a lot, I can read some Japanese (very little, but the info on the official site seems correct, if I'm not deeply mistaken), so the link you provided would be suitable as a source. Tnx once more. :-) ru:Ari  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.226.233.158 (talk) 13:27, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Accent Core Plus requires disc? 

message: "The PlayStation 2 version of Guilty Gear X2 has sold well in Japan; over 140 million copies were sold between 2002 and 2004."
"140 million copies"
I call BS on this number, especially given that no verifiable links were included with that statement. The best selling video game (as of 2014) has been Wii Fit (~82 million). Did the person who added this "140 million copies" mean "14 million copies" instead? Or possibly "140 thousand copies"?
I won't personally remove it, but it really does need to be addressed by someone with more information on the subject.173.228.18.224 (talk) 04:30, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: A quick search yields this site which contains (possibly) accurate statistics:
 http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/?name=guilty+gear+xx
Note that the combined sales of all Guilty Gear XX versions (including #R, Slash, Accent Core, AC+, etc.) totals only 0.83 million, or 830,000 (830 thousand). That is a far cry from 140 million for the PS2 version that the article currently shows.
Again, I will not change it, if only because there may be a (small) chance of conflicting statistics which may well show Guilty Gear XX as having sold millions upon millions of copies. Unlikely, but hey, stranger things have happened.173.228.18.224 (talk) 04:40, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

text: Sorry, my fault. It should be 140 thousand. The sources are in the "Reception" section. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 05:19, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: VGChartz has long been considered an unreliable source on Wikipedia. Terrible site in general for getting numbers. TheStickMan[✆Talk] 05:26, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, a source like Media Create is much more reliable. Maybe the folks at Dustloop.com have better numbers? Jotamide (talk) 23:13, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: In fact, the source for sales is Geimin.net, which takes information from Famitsu weekly reports. While VGChartz is listed as unreliable by the project, I don't know about Dustloop.com's reability. Is it has different information on sales compared to Geimin? Gabriel Yuji (talk) 00:14, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sales [citation needed] 

message: The article current shows its European release occurred on March 28, 2003 (the same as in GameFAQs, a non-reliable source). However, through a search I've found inconsistent dates: Eurogamer shows March 7, JeuxVideo March 21, GameZone April 17. Sammy site, however, indicates the February release in North America encompassed Europe too (). I'm not sure though, because the difference of dates is considerable, and I couldn't find a review from an European site. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 03:58, 29 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  European release 

message: The article isn't any clear about the circumstances in which the XX and X2 names are used. I've personally never seen it as X2. Anyone care to clarify? --uKER (talk) 20:35, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I've seen it both ways. I never questioned the decision to use X2 because I thought Gabriel Yuji had a good reason to use it, but I guess now's the time to hear that reason? TheStickMan[✆Talk] 03:15, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: WP:ENGLISH: "The title of an article should generally use the version of the name of the subject which is most common in the English language". And, more specifically, WP:NCVG#Games: "Use the most commonly accepted English name first, if one exists." All English-language reviews use "X2", not "XX".

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I thought there was a Talk section on the edit pages, but it seems like if there is, I can’t access it from the iOS app. So I’ll leave my explanation here. Originally, the section of the article said that Psyche Burst, when it connects with the opponent, fills the Tension gague to its full capacity. Psyche Burst does have that property, but only when used under certain conditions. There are, in fact, two different kinds of Bursts; Blue and Gold. Gold Bursts are performed when the Burst input is done while your character is in a non-defensive state. It is faster than a Blue Burst, bars your opponent from attacking you in any way during its recovery, and grants 100% Tension when it hits an unblocking opponent. Blue Bursts, on the other hand, occur when the burst command is inputted when your character is in a defensive state (e.g. while being hit, or during blockstun). They are slower to come out, are vulnerable to being punished on recovery, and do not grant full Tension on hit.
I’m quite new to Wikipedia editing, so I’m unsure if I need to add a new citation to either corroborate what I’ve mentioned here or in the edit itself. Sorry for being so long-winded, and if I’ve made a mistake somewhere, please let me know. HiddenMissiles (talk) 09:38, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a good edit, . Thank you. Unfortunately we are limited to write what reliable sources tell us, so I couldn't detail it that much originally when I wrote it. I think you're edit is welcome because it doesn't add too much extraneous information without a new source. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 02:25, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
