Brief synopsis of Armored Core: For Answer

In the distant future, massive urban development and pollution have critically damaged the planet. There is widespread fear that the end of the world is approaching. The League corporations, a military superpower, control the planet's infrastructure and have forced most of the world's population to live in huge aerial communities, called Cradles, to avoid the contamination. The ORCA, a rebel resistance still residing on the surface of the polluted planet, have amassed a formidable arsenal and are mobilizing to attack The League's bases to put an end to their iron grip on the planet. As a mercenary armed with cutting-edge military robot technology, choose your side and defeat the other factions by harnessing the power of the deadliest and most gigantic weapons ever created by mankind.

Rated - 1 starOnly for fans of the series

A customer from London, England , 20/01/2009

Unless you are a huge fan of the Armored Core series, this is proably not going to be played for very long. The gameplay is confusing and the fighting is frantic to the point where all you do is keep shooting at things until 1. you die 2. you run out of ammo then die 3. you run out of the gameplay area and lose the mission! (frustrating on one particular mission)

The customisation is hard to get to grips with as well...so many parts and the way they interact has not been explained very well (maybe it was in the manual but nothing comes with the disc).

Fighting in huge humanoid robots is cool but this game is too hard to pick up casually and get's tiring real quick.

Rated - 5 starsSurprisingly Good!

This was the first time I'd played an Armored Core game and one of this genre and it completely changed my perspective of games like this.

You should definitly atleast give this game a rent if you haven't already because I really enjoyed it. The game gives excellent fast-paced action combined with amazing sound effects and music. The ability to completely customize your armored core adds to the immersive atmosphere.

If your a fan of online play then I wouldn't use it as the sole criterion to play this game. Theres virtually nobody online. When there is though the battles are amazing and the ability to missions online in co-op is a very good idea.

All In all I'd recommend this game to anyone for atleast a trial :)
