twich Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Hey there, I know that there was a rather large thread that had a lot of great information on the old board, but I was wondering if this might be a good place to post any recent news about the game, maybe have one post that has all the news about it and people can update what they hear. Hope to hear some good news about this game coming to the US. Larry Quote
Anubis Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Here is the Link to the trailer if anyone needs it. Game Trailer Quote
the white drew carey Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Here's a link to the discussion on the previous board: http://www.macrossworld.com/cgi-bin/mwf/ik...t=ST;f=14;t=697 Quote
bsu legato Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Looks good to me but....we've been burnt on Macross games before, haven't we? Quote
13strikevalkyrie13 Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 i agree... i think it was kind've a response to tdk's battlecry i dunno but i dought if it was coming to the states Quote
Druna Skass Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 (edited) Well if anyone wants to get it, but not have to mod their PS2 you could get this... The Swap Magic PS2 boot disk http://www.easybuy2000.com/store/playstati...20II/index.html Edited August 24, 2003 by Druna Skass Quote
Abombz!! Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 I'm kind of worried that we haven't seen any gameplay movies for it, and its due out in a few months. Quote
Gaijin Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 Nonetheless, with AM2 at the helm, I think it might be safe to assume (I know, I know) that this theoretically could be...gasp...a really good Macross game. Quote
vfxraven19 Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 I'm anxious about this game. Man, I wish they would release actual in-game footage, or at least the intro movie of the game. The Flash movie ain't enough for me. We might have to wait for the Tokyo Game Show this Fall... Quote
twich Posted August 24, 2003 Author Posted August 24, 2003 Check out the Macross Compendium Macross Compendium, it has information on the game, aparently it is going to have a whole new remake of the opening animation of the original SDF:Macross anime. Check it out! It looks awesome! I think I might mod my PS2 if this doesn't come to the states! Larry Quote

Lightning Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 I really want this, mod or no mod. (come on people! it has to be better than BattleCry!) Quote
Jasonc Posted August 25, 2003 Posted August 25, 2003 The graphics look quite good on the game, but I don't know why it has to be better than Battlecry. I'm just a fan of the mecha and want good games. You shouldn't complicate something even more by taking sides over a game. I do look forward to getting this game and will wait anxiously for it's arrival into my hands. My PS2 is ready for new action. Quote

It doesn't need to be better then BC... simply because BC was actually painful to look at. At this rate.... anything is better then BC. <_< Quote
Bub Posted August 25, 2003 Posted August 25, 2003 If you noticed, in battroid mode. the hips a conected to the nose cone too far low. Yeck! But that doesn't really matter that much as long as the gameplay is great.......... ............ And I still wish that this game has a COCKPIT VIEW! Quote
Graham Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Did anybody (Junmei, Munkey Nugget?) go to the C3 2003 character show event in Tokyo (August 23-24)? They may have had a playable demo of the new Macross game there. Graham Quote
Gaijin Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 That swap /slide card setup looks interesting. Maybe I will be able to play the new Macross game after all. Quote
Sazabi Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 very cool!, as ive said before it LOOKS nice. and since its SEGA (or to be precise AM2) making it its probably going to be the best Macross game ever. i hope its gonna have ALOT of SPEED!, AND have a few players to choose from. not just Hikaru (IF were supposed to play as the main cast that is). speed+cool 50 ton robots moving like feathers in the wind+BANG BANG+Nosjuadeul-Ger+VF-1SS+Gerwalk+Maximillian Jenius = THE MFKN WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! //Dan.. Quote
yellowlightman Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Bandai is gonna be showing off this Macross game at the Tokyo Game Show next month. We can definately expect to see some new coverage on it then. (Source) Quote

I don't think you play as a member of the cast. Seeing as most gameplay pics where CF only. Quote
Drad Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Just let me fly a VF-1S, and I'll be happy. B) Quote
Bub Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 The preview site still has no updates. August is going and we only have the flash movie. <_ Quote
Abombz!! Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 The preview site still has no updates. August is going and we only have the flash movie. The game is going to be out shortly after TGS, just sit tight. If the game is good.... there will be tons of previews.... if it isn't... it will get to retailers and no one will notice. Quote
super_quincy Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 There were some nice pics on Magic Box Some look like gameplay shots Quote
Apollo Leader Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Game Informer magazine has an article about the game. Bandai Ent. has been asked if they would release it in the US and the answer was that they would look into doing it. I'll try to get the article scanned this evening... I've had the mag since Saturday, but I've just been too busy! Quote

Hoptimus Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Interesting. The only way it will happen is if they get a "US" License from HG. I can see them battling the court on this one of Bandai trys to bring it here themselves via BigWest. Quote

Abombz!! Posted August 26, 2003 Posted August 26, 2003 Oh they will. Bah! Bandai has money... they could chose to lay the smack down on them once and for all or just settle. I go for settle. I rather get the game with whoever name on the cover then not getting it at all. Quote

UN Spacy Posted August 27, 2003 Posted August 27, 2003 Does Shoji Kawamori have any input on the release of these Macross games? Did he have any part in the production? Quote
