Screenshots and more details on Arc System Works' Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus fell on our laps by way of a Game Watch update today. Read more on this 2D fighter at the full article and find out just why it has the word "Plus" in its title.

An actual demonstration can be a big help for those who want to understand something better. For those of you who may be interested in Arc System Works' Okiraku Ping Pong Wii, Josh Thomas has prepared a little video demo of the game's features. More enlightenment follows in the full article, right after the jump.

Japanese gamers who want to have a sneak peek at what Nintendo has in store for them next week on the Wii Virtual Console will be happy to know that four more classic titles will be up for grabs by February 19. To find out what these titles are and their respective Wii Point costs, check out the full article after the jump.

Two new Xbox 360 demos have been added to the Xbox Live Marketplace. Unfortunately for gamers in North America, these free demos are not available on the U.S. Marketplace.

First is the Japan-only demo for Guilty Gear 2: Overture. This Xbox 360 title from Arc System Works is the first title in the fighting series to utilize 3D graphics. The demo description describes the game as a mix between the action and RTS genres.

A North American release date for Guilty Gear 2: Overture has yet to be announced. It's currently slated for a November 29 release in Japan.

Next up is the Looney Tunes: ACME Arsenal demo. Available only in European Xbox Live regions, Looney Tunes: ACME Arsenal is a 3d action/adventure title based on the classic Looney Tunes series. Looney Tunes: ACME Arsenal is now out in the U.S. A demo for the game was released on the U.S. Marketplace early this month.

Crazy anime-styled brawling action with just a hint of cross-gender weirdness in this Guilty Gear XX Accent Core for the Nintendo Wii gameplay update. Yes, the gang is back with their insane costumes and even more insane moves, and they're as off-beat and as quirky as ever. And Bridget is still a guy cross-dressing as a girl.

In this video, we see quite the one-sided match-ups playing out - the frail-looking Bridget, the sickly-looking A.B.A and the precocious May facing off against the game's tougher, more battle-hardened combatants. Unfortunately, things in Arc System Works' Guilty Gear universe is never what they seem, and these girls (and boy) prove that they can take care of their own just fine.

Yo-yos, anchors and big giant demonic keys, oh my. Enjoy the videos!

Armchair pugilists looking to get a head start over the competition, take notice: the website for the crazy smash-em-up fighter, Arc System's Guilty Gear XX Accent Core for the PlayStation 2 and Wii, has recently put up shop on the 'tubes and is now open for business. What's the best thing about it? One is that it's Guilty-freaking-Gear, and two is that it's all in English. Awesome!

Looking at the site, there's a lot of content to browse over, with a good chunk of it being the character profiles and System info. The character profiles section gets you up-to-date on how your favorite Guilty Gear character is doing, his or her basic stats, and an easy-to-read move list. Definitely a good read for those of us who want a refresher on the complicated movements needed to perform the stylishly-crazy moves of the Guilty Gear cast.

It's the same with the System section, only it's more of the neat tricks at your disposal no matter what character you're playing as - namely Roman Cancels, Throw Escapes, and the infamous Instant Kill maneuver.

And for those of us who want our desktops to have more of a Guilty Gear XX Accent Core flavor, there's the Media and Downloads sections to loot, with videos, screenshots, wallpapers and even IM avatars. Now you can have that Bridget avatar you've always wanted! Yay!

Rockstar witches, haiku-spouting vampires, a one-armed, one-eyed samurai - what's not to like about Guilty Gear XX Accent Core? Not a very whole lot. Updates as we get them, and you can check out the actual website at the read link we've provided below.

  

Just a few days ago we reported about Arc System Work's Adventure Flight Wii (or Puchi Copter Wii) coming over for the Nintendo Wii. We've got a handful of flying goodness for you this time, with the wee little copter flying through playgrounds, clinics, and what-have-yous.

With the aid of our ever-trusty weblator, we now know that one of the minigames in Adventure Flight Wii will let players carry an object and fly it to a designated point (like lifting trash into the trashbin). The video game from Arc System Work is already reported to be 60% complete, so there's certainly enough hope for us to expect the game to be released this year (in Japan at least). This game's Katamari-style of cuteness will surely win the hearts of many casual and hardcore gamers.

That's all we have so far on Adventure Flight Wii, but you can count on us to scout the skies for more info.

Bridget cosplay and quite a healthy amount of gameplay coming for you in this Guilty Gear XX Accent Core video update for the Nintendo Wii. We get you a closer look at what's up with the fighting game that features hardcore anime influences and wicked-looking Instant Kill attacks.

In this video, we see Game-Watch paying a visit to the legendary Arc System Works studio to get a hands-on look at the game. The host, oddly enough, chose Bridget to cosplay as - and while we won't argue that it looks cute on her, someone probably forgot to tell her that Bridget's of the male gender.

Regardless, the brave interviewer charges on with the questions, and we see tantalizing bits of gameplay, as well as some of the menu screens we'll be navigating through. Unfortunately, the video's not embeddable, so you'll have to click on the Read link to actually view it. Enjoy!

In what could be seen as a move to keep up with the times, or simply a move to inject new life into the series, it seems that the folks behind the beat-em-up with the distinctly-random anime edge, Guilty Gear, have opted to give the next iteration of the series a massive makeover - and with massive, we mean making the jump from one-on-one combat to third person slash-em-up. With massive, we mean going from 2D to glorious, next-gen 3D that's exclusive only to the Xbox 360.

Now, before you cry shenanigans, yes, we know that the Guilty Gear series has always been known for its glorious 2D sprites and a revolutionary gameplay system that not only allowed you to pummel opponents with a wicked-looking combo, but also perform ridiculously-stylish Instant Kills that no one can stand up from. But a scan from Famitsu, pictured above, shows that not only does the game have an added third dimension, but also increased freedom of movement.

Look closely at the screenshots. Doesn't the gameplay look less of a versus title and more of a third-person slash-em-up? Particularly the screenshot to the right of Sol Badguy - isn't that him with the Fireseal, attacking a group of enemies with an area-of-effect blast? Yeah, thought so.

Of course, there's no confirmation yet of just what kind of gameplay Guilty Gear 2: Overture will offer, but based on the scan, it's definitely going to be interesting. More updates about this stunning development as we get them.

It's about time fans of the Guilty Gear series stopped staring at the scans and screenshots, and viewed some animated goodness instead. As you can expect, we brought it, and it comes in the form of a Guilty Gear XX Accent Core trailer.

As we can see from the clip, the usual modes expected from a Guilty Gear game are included, including Training Mode and Survival Mode. The M.O.M and Gallery modes also make a comeback in this latest title.

The flashy animated action and violence never looked so sweet on a Wii. Now that the bugs that plagued earlier Guilty Gear titles on the PS2 are fixed and done with, American fans waiting for an Arc System fix can rest assured, knowing that they're in for quite a treat sometime this year.
