Guard button in other games

I've been wondering, are there many games making use of G button to block rather than by pulling the stick to b/db? I mean newer games... Chanchai? Btw, which setup do you prefer?

 

Soul Edge/Calibur. Mortal Kombat 4/versus/images/icons/tongue.gif--I know, it's not that new... Like Myke said, Tobal 1 and 2 (imo, the second one is worth getting a PSOne alone). Fighting Vipers 1&2 of course.. That's all I can think of at the moment...

I'm assuming you are talking about Fighting Games, otherwise there's also the Sega Beatemups (Zombie Revenge(?) and Dynamite Deka Series).

I prefer the Guard button setup personally. While not being an expert at any fighting game, all I can say is that it feels more complete to me that way. However, being so used to b/db makes it not too much of an issue. But I feel that a seperate Guard button carries potential for additional mechanics that b/db can't (G-Cancels for instance, but I acknowledge that there are other forms of buffer tricks/cancels in games like Tekken)..
