Street fighter and Guilty Gear (including X and Isuka) games should really not be compared. While they both may be 2D fighters, that's about all the similarity they have. For one, Street Frighter is old school and Guilty Gear, well, it doesn't even have such a large following, and is fairly new. Late 90s or early 00s.

Also, the dynamics of both games are entirely different. Guilty Gear is very fast paced, as Vic said. Think of its pace being somewhat similar to the pace Marvel vs Capcom 2.

If you like 2D games, then I honestly do recommend this serie. Not because it bears similarity to SF, because they don't, but because in itself, GG, be it the first, second or third, is/are great game(s).

I too am a big fan of ST and of 2D fighting games in general. I also am, I guess you could say, a fan of GG. Good stuff. Plus, the older GG games should be cheap now. I last bought Isuka (GG's latest installment, realsed late last year) this year for about $30.

So yeah, for 2D, GG is the way to go and for 3D, I suggest Soul Calibur 2.
