    Front Mission Evolved

    FM4 sucked, and then we never even got FM5 outside of japan even though its supposed to be like one of the best games ever. How can they make another one, but still not even give us 5. D":

    Just a stupid CG teaser, but hey its something. I wonder if they are stickign with turnbased strategy, or if they'll go the chromehounds route and do squad based real time combat like that japan only online FM game. Cause Id totally be fine with either.

    It's a first person mech sim which is totally not what I want in a Front Mission game and likely won't bother playing.

      It looks interesting. And it'll keep me distracted until a new Armored Core is released(if ever)
      D:

      FM3 is one of the best RTS games.

      And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
      So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
      And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

        But FM3 wasn't RTS. It was a regular SRPG.

          Anyone know if that Front Mission for DS is worth a damn?

            Signs point to yes!

            But why play it when there's so much else to do

              One time, I was about to buy a Front Mission game thinking that fighting with robots and **** was going to be awesome.

              I didn't buy it.

                Gameplay videos are out. It looks kinda generic and crappy. It also sounds like they stole sound effects from the Transformers movie.

                Even the story trailer seems pretty bland and generic. WAR. OMG. ILL MAKE THEM PAY.

                  I heard they were trying to reboot the franchise.

                  Assuming it isn't terrible, i still might pick up for lack of a better game.

                    i really enjoy the Front Mission series and this looks good to me. this Front Mission Evolved doesn't seem like it's going to be mind-blowing entertainment but i suspect it will be very fun to play for a Front Mission fan and that's certainly all i'm looking for. i dont have a PS3 though... so, i might miss out because of that

                      Maybe my definition is different but I always assumed "reboot" when it comes to series involved returning to its roots. Front Mission was a pretty advanced game for its time and the original SNES version still holds strong today. Front Mission 3 is one of the few games on the market where the storyline truly differs based on arbitrary decisions (the first multiple choice decision in the game literally takes you on an entirely different mission tree). Front Mission 4 was an ugly mess and the first game where I noticed the artists started using gray and brown to create a "realistic" palette.

                      If this game was developed by a company with some mech experience like From Software (no... don't think about it you'll only be disappointed about what could have been) then I wouldn't mind but Double Helix's pedigree is entirely 3rd person action games with Buffy the Vampire Slayer arguably being their greatest title.

                        Big suprise!



                        Its coming out tomorrow, and japans had it for a while now and doesnt like it. From what I hear:

                        -single player story is lame
                        -multiplayer and single player are seperate
                        -cant take your single player wanzers online
                        -cant take your multiplayer wanzer offline
                        -120+ parts to build with for single player
                        -limited to around 60 parts for multiplayer
                        -alot of unbalanced weapons with a few certain loadouts dominating most matches, but a patch is in the works
                        -4vs4 are the biggest matches you can play
                        -the meat and potatoes of the multiplayer is in ranked matches where you earn points to get new parts/unlock them, but ranked matches are totally randomized and you cant play with your friends unless you randomly get matched with them out of the however other hundred people that are playing

                        People are hoping the randomized ranked matches get fixed with the patch, but who knows. I dunno. I think I might give it a rental to see what its all about. It sounds like Armored Cores little brother.

                        FYI Square, we still want Front Mission 5~

                          From what I played of multiplayer it was incredibly basic and boring.

                          And clunky.

                          Can't forget clunky.

                          If you have a rockin' computer thing you can probably emulate FM5. |:V

                            Picked it up today for the PC. Its pretty fun, truth be told.

                            Haven't tried online mode.

                              Lots of NA people seem to like it so far. Maybe the japanese didnt like it because it wasnt made in japan.
