I've only ever played the demo of the first game on 3DS and I knew for a fact it was definitely a great game. I copped the striker pack awhile ago and yeah, Gunvolt 1 is good, while Gunvolt 2 is GREAT.

The game definitely has a skill curve to it, but once you get things down, it all clicks, and the game rewards you for it. The story between the two games was fairly solid, a bit predictable at times, so I wasn't fully invested as I wanted to be, but the characters are all pretty charming and funny so I wasn't completely out of touch. Copen took a bit for me to click in GV2, but his play style is really fun and rewarding in it's own right.

I definitely recommend the Striker Pack as the best way to play these two games, and if you're into stuff like Mega Man Gunvolt will likely be up your alley. (I'm not sure if the GV1 Steam port got fixed so bear in mind if you wanna get the series on PC).
