Realistic gundams, and an FPS. Sweet.

Prolly a nod to Gundam Side Story Rise From The Ashes, which was a FPS Gundam game for the Dreamcast. *** I loved that game.

I just went forward in time to play this game. Turns out, it was a complete waste because it's a Gundam game and I probably could've guessed it sucked.

Oh yes..

This and Mobile Ops: One Year War for the 360 will be the best gundam games since Zeta v Gundam

Quoting Roger Smith: Prolly a nod to Gundam Side Story Rise From The Ashes, which was a FPS Gundam game for the Dreamcast. *** I loved that game.


Agreed. Wii controls would make that game rock so much more, too. Can't wait to check this game out.

Some blurry, not very enlightening screens from gonintendo.

Also:
- The game will take place in a first person view
- Weapons of enemies can be picked up
- Wiimote is used for shooting and melee attacks. Sniping with the Wiimote is done by pointing at the screen
- Intense battles can happen when you and your enemy melee attack at the same time
- Customizable colors for characters

Hmm. The character shots suggest that it'll tie in to the 8th MS Team anime that was made about a decade ago. Cool.

There was supposedly a Gundam 0079 game in the works for GAMECUBE for a really long time. Perhaps they moved the project onto the Wii, in which case it's had a longer development cycle than just about any other Gundam game, ever. Hopefully that counts for something.

Good thing it's supposed to look blocky.

I see Gundam 0080 and 08th MS Team. This is gonna be awesome if we see a translation.

Man, look at those sweet textures and environments. WHOA!




Posted by Ant

If they could pull of the controls correctly, it would be awesome.

But they won't.




Posted by Poco

This looks alot like Side Story: Rise from the Ashes.

Which rocked. So, if they can correctly implement the Wii's control it will rule.
Or, I'll just use the Classic Controller.

Controls don't look too bad, but yeah, the environments are boring.

Some new shots that look more promising:

Being able to customize the color scheme of your mobile suit is cool. I can't wait to play this game and see it in action.




Posted by Drewboy64

That color customization is sick!

And the environments look better in those shots.




Posted by Poco

load blown.

this may motivate me to buy the 250 dollar gimmick machine.
Which may just be blowing the rest of its games late!
