History Awesome / GuiltyGear

** Same goes for Gabriel, the scene definitely proving his fighting ability. No wonder he was a rival of Slayer's in the past!

* Johnny going toe-to-toe with Bedman in story mode. It almost makes up for his playable absence, seeing such a beloved fan favorite take on one of the most powerful villains of the current arc.

* The story mode, while lacking any fights similar to BlazBlue or Persona, also deserve mention due to the dynamic animations. As well as conveying more of what happens in 3D!

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDmOYUqI0Z8#t=3m51s Sin shows that he's got plenty of power himself]]. He pins the enemy into a grab and takes off at light-speed with them (taking a moment to indulge in a little TrashTalk with his opponent) before crashing them into a couple of hills, shattering them completely, and finally engulfing them in an explosion on the horizon. Cue Sin in his win-pose, his flag flying victoriously behind him.

** Ky's Rising Force is back, but instead of a single stab, Ky [[SingleStrokeBattle slices through his opponent]], [[ShockAndAwe while his sword is being trailed by lightning.]] Made even better when Ky's BadassCape randomly spawns on his shoulders in the middle of the attack.

** May's Instant Kill is both awesome [[Funny/GuiltyGear and hilarious]]. She lays a smackdown on the opponent [[StreetFighter Shun-Goku-Satsu]] style, and when they wake up they find that they've been [[HumanCannonball stuffed into a cannon]]; after which they are promptly [[TwinkleInTheSky blasted into the clouds.]]

* The visual effects in the game are in a league all their own! The reveal trailer shows what appears to be top-notch sprite animations as Sol and Ky chat before going at it. The moments their blades clash, though, the action pauses, and the camera pans around, revealing that ''they weren't sprites at all, but '''3D models animated in a style that mirrored sprite animation!''''' As a result, the gameplay retains its frenetic 2D fighting style while allowing for seamless, dynamic camera transitions for intro animations, super attacks, instant-kills, and victory poses. Just putting it into words does little justice to how amazing it looks: one must really see it in motion to truly appreciate it!

** Ky's Rising Force is back, but instead of a single stab, Ky [[SingleStrokeBattle performs a single slice through his opponent]], [[ShockAndAwe while being trailed by lightning.]] Made even better when Ky's BadassCape randomly spawns on his shoulders in the middle of the attack.

* May's [[HumanCannonball Instant Kill]] is made of both this [[Funny/GuiltyGear and hilarious]].

* If you manage to [[SlipknotPonytail undo Ky's hair]], Holy Orders III from ''Overture'' will play through the round.

** Dragon Install also gives Sol a new outro, Instant Kill animation, and theme song.

* When Sol wins when he's in [[DeadlyUpgrade Dragon Install]] he roars and [[BattleAura engulf himself in flames.]]

** Never has a pool cue more badass than movie stars until Venom shows up with his buckled up case, takes the stick out and does a fabulous hair flip!

* TheReveal of this new game is an epic moment in ''Guilty Gear'' ever. After almost five years of nothing but UpdatedRerelease and ASW's attention to ''{{Blazblue}}'', the surprise [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKGPhKu3jNg trailer at the Arc Festival]] made grown men cry.

* While the UnexpectedGameplayChange from fighter to RTS/hack n' slash hybrid found in ''Guilty Gear 2 Overture'' isn't known for being well-liked, it's known for one crowning moment: Mission 13, where you get to play as the then-unavailable-to-players fan favorite Ky Kiske, with Dr. Paradigm as your AI partner. You must defend your castle's gate while freeing Paradigm's servants from Valentine's control. All to the tune of a rearranged version of "Holy Orders (Be Just or Be Dead)," Ky's {{Leitmotif}}. '''''HELL. YES.''''' And it still plays if you do it in Free Mission mode, where you get to play as any character.
* Why didn't anyone put Overture mission 19 here!? Sol charging towards Valentine's fortress while [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic the awesome boss theme "Diva"]] plays at the background is one of the most awesome gameplay scenes in ''Guilty Gear''. It gets more intense as Valentine is going through a VillainousBreakdown and is screaming psychotically while Sol is fighting her.
