Gundam 0081 PS3 Exclusive

For one.. SEED's story wasn't too horrible. It gets mixed in in with the "shit" category mainly because of Destiny dragging it down. Destiny was just... horrendous. From reused footage (a shit ton), to the story just going in a wtf direction, it was horrible.

I swear, with SEED Destiny, it's like halfway through the writers realized "Holy shit, Shinn really does suck as a main character. Let's scrap it and bring Kira back."

Man I hated Shinn sooooooooooooooo much, he was such a bitch... "Kira, I'm going to kill you because you killed my sorta girlfriend who was killing hundreds of people!!!!!!!!!" I totally call bullshit on him beating Kira too that shouldn't have happened.

On topic I have a very hard time believing that they'll ever make a decent Gundam game. If they wanted to make a good one they should look at Zone of Enders 2. That's the sorta game play that I'd want in a Gundam game. Aiming guns is one thing but with melee combat in a flying 3d environment you really need a lock on system in my opinion.

What WAS the last decent Gundam game they made? Last decent one I played was AEUG versus the Titans.

You have a fine one right there. Then the 2 IC posted above (though they came out before your's). IIRC Gundam VS Zeta Gundam is the "fuller" version of the "arcade game" AEUG vs Titans and thats the one I play a lot. Other than that theres the new one that should have a thread a couple threads down.

Edit: Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2

This game was bad ass, and I too, still have it.

My bad, I was thinking Gundam versus Zeta Gundam. . which is basically the same game (I was just thinking of it under old terms).

I've heard a bit about Side Story 0079. What system was that for?

Classy Gamer: Gundam Senki Multiplayer modes detailed

As the release date in Japan approaches, Namco Bandai has released some new juicy info on the online multiplayer modes for Gundam Senki (Gundam Battlefield Record U.C.0081).

The Free Mission mode will allow players to fight online both in four players cooperative mode and in eight players team deathmatch.
When creating a character each player will have to chose a side (Earth Federation or Zeon) and a name, and will retain his online persona from then on (there's no info on the possibility to have multiple characters at the moment). By killing the enemy online he will receive experience points that will contribute towards a leveling system granting new ranks and skills.

As his online career progresses each player will be able to purchase and customize new mobile suits to tackle different missions.
The customization provided online will be even more extensive than that of the campaign modes, as the enemy weapons will be available for capture, for instance allowing a Zaku to carry a beam saber, or a Gundam to fight with two beam axes.
Also, during the online missions, defeated enemy mobile suits will drop customization parts that will unlock new mobile suits (four Gundams and two Zakus, between witch the infamous "Red Comet" from the first anime series).

During online gameplay communication will be available both via text chat and voice chat and a system similar to the command palette will allow players to assign a pre-written text lines to the D-Pad, to give quick instructions to their team-mates.

Several screenshots of the online modes and customization are available on this article on the Japanese portal Gpara.com.

This is just another layer of depth added to this extremely promising game. As I told in my previous posts about it, it seems to have the potential to be the best mecha game of this generation. We only have to hope that Namco Bandai won't be blind to such potential. Not releasing Gundam Senki in the west would be a big missed opportunity. You heard me Namco, get those translators to work, we want some Gundam action! :D

Will probably never see the light of day for a US release again after what crossfire did but this is better than that.
