You've sold me :p

Now I must go and get myself a copy! Is this for the PS1 or PS2? Can you also post a pic of the box as I know there are many Super Robot Wars games out there and I do not want to get the wrong one ;)

Alpha 3 is PS2, as is Alpha 2. Alpha 1 and Gaiden were PS1.

I had bad experience with PlayAsia, so I tend to stay away from them nowadays!

Do tell. :huh:

Now that lik-sang's gone (not that they were flawless themselves) I was looking for another supplier, and thought play Asia might be a good bet...

BTW, how do I figure out how to play this game? Would the translated GBA original generation gmes help?

It would help.

You won't have a clue what's going on, but you can figure out what most of the menu options are by trial and error too.

I actually posted a newbie playguide right before that whole hacking incident a few months ago. Unfortunately, it was one of the posts that was lost.

Bah... I mock your Alpha on the PS1... Alpha for Dreamcast pwnz Alpha on PS1.

but yeah... I loved Apha for Dreamcast one of my favorite games, and while I like SRW I'm not a super big fan. I really wanna Play Alpha 3.

I prefer the PS version, actually. The 3D on the DC is a notable first attempt for the series, but it doesn't feel right.

Especially with the camera AI being a tad wonky. It kept picking angles where you could see the X shape of the beams and the end of the Eva extension cord floating in space, or focusing on the foot of the Macross when I fired the cannon.

Well the 3D graphics wern't the only addition to the DC version were they? My friend has the PS version and told me that it didn't have combo attacks like Nu Gundam and Sazabi's "Twin Funnel Attack" even though deffinitly by the PS2 era that kind of thing had become a halmark of the SRW series. Anyway without the DC version I never would have got into SRW, I had seen a little bit of it over at my friends place, but it wasn't until I walked in the store and went "ooh gunbuster, Skull 01, Eva... me wants~". Anyway I just think watching Gunbuster Super Inzsuma Kick Bodolza's fortress makes the game worth while.

Oh my friend also said there was no vocal track for Ai Oboeteimasuka in the PS1 version is this true? cause that made that battle, (though if you felt like destroying every Zen unit before taking out Bodolza it got repetitive.)

Honestly, I never got that far in either version.

I had some technical difficulties with my "Download Edition" Dreamcast version, and just got distracted by english-language games after I got the PS version.
