Another Century's Episode R

[macross_fan99]

The latest Famitsu has some scans on the game and you can clearly see the VF-25. Since the ps3 is region free it should make it easy to import. I just hope they at least make the menus English though, the other games were a bit confusing.

Awesome news!!!

The VF-0A and Orguss Orguroid are in the game as well.

[UN Spacy]

HELL YEAH!!!

[sdf2501]

This new just made my day. Hopefully there'll be more series represented than the list in the current issue of Famjitsu. Seems weird to me that there'd be the VF-0 and VF-25 without all the other VF's in between. Must be more to come.

According to some other message boards it seems there will only be 3 mechs from each series. A low number but the producers are saying that modeling them takes a long time and they want to focus on graphics and gameplay.

My guess is that this series is far from over and they will just add onto this game in the next installment.

ORGUSS!!!!! OK, time to buy a PS3.

[macross_fan99]

Some screenshots have been released.

Graphics look great, as you would expect on a current gen system.

Cinematics look good. Actual in-game shots looks pretty clean. Now...when's that trailer gonna come out.

[macross_fan99]

Found another site with a few more screenshots. A lot of them are the same but there are some new ones.

http://videogamerx.gamedonga.co.kr/zbxe/1428219

And is anyone else hoping they change the controls from the previous games? They're great for the mechs, but controlling the planes is a total pain. I hope they give us a set of different controls for them.

[Vepariga]

HOLY SH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!TTTTTTTTTTTTT! This looks mad as hell! Cant wait!! *is excited*

just looking at those screenshots gives me the jollys! need a trailer!

[katanamaru]

Hate to be a bummer, but the thing I didn't like about the previous ACE games was the lack of good ground combat. It's all flashy flying, but if I'm going to be in a mech I want it to have practical ground applications. I felt the VF's in those games were kind of at a disadvantage compared to non-transforming, flying mechs.

I wanna smash my skull against the ground... I'm low on money... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGH!!!

[macross_fan99]

The first video has been released. It looks like it might be the opening cinematics for the game.

http://www.ace-game.jp/

After the website loads up go to the movie section.

[Smegalot]

The video looks great. I can't wait to see the actual game play.

Does anyone have any idea of when the release date is?

[Vepariga]

That movie owned! VF-25 part was great loved it,top-notch CGI. Im excited.

[dizman]

Looking good, I assume this game has an online VS. so we can destroy each other.

[505thAirborne]

The mecha almost looks life like in that movie, Epic!!

[Renato]

Summer 2010 is all the info out so far.

[Maiden Japan]

ORGUSS!!! Love that full CG animation!

[Actar]

Absolutely brilliant.

Aside from the Macross stuff, I personally am exceedingly excited over the Code Geass and FMP! mecha in the game. Both these series have yet to receive a decent game of their own.

Hopefully the Guren SEITEN will be a playable Mecha. (^.^)

[Razor x]

OMG!! looks like a must have Game!!

[lechuck]

Very nice. Nu Gundam, Arbalest and Lancelot to crush them all.

Hopefully, there is a Lancelot Albion to unlock.

[macross_fan99]

New gameplay screens.

Gameplay screens

Also, the release date seems to be August 19, maybe someone here can confirm if they read Japanese.

Magazine scan

[sdf2501]

According to here, the game comes out Aug 19 and those who reserve the game can get an unlock code for Z Gundam 3 (although supposedly you can also unlock it by playing the game, probably similar to the way you unlock mechs through the other games).

It's already available for preorder on YesAsia, but not Play-Asia yet.

[CrazyMartian]

Holy crap! Klan is in the game!!! YEAH!!!

[Graham]

While this game looks gorgeous, it will be the first A.C.E. game that I won't be buying.

In the 6 years since my son was born, I've barely touched my PS2. I think I've played on it a grand total of 3 times in 6 years!.

There's no way I could justify the purchase of a PS3 to myself or my wife.

I'm just glad for MAF/MUF (and the hopeful sequel) on the PSP, as gaming while commuting to and from work is the only time I get to play video games these days.

Actually, there's a very easy way to justify it...

BLU-RAY PLAYER!

and it'll also let you browse the internet on TV.

[Vepariga]

KLAN!!! :D Cant wait for this to come out,August is a good month.

LOL That is how I justified it to my wife!! I'm so happy I have a PS3, She is japanese and we are going to see her family in October, I will definitely but it while I'm there, along with a bunch of other Macross stuff

[CrazyMartian]

Hmmm... When's the release date?

Oops, nevermind.

Still, I probably won't preorder it. I want to see a good gameplay video first. Also, the new Macross game on PSP takes precedence over this one and naturally, I want my MGS: Peace Walker as well...

Life sucks... I also want Phantasy Star Portable 2 and Valkyria Chronicles 2!!

Bad year for my wallet...

ArtDink is freakin' evil. As soon as you spend a couple hundred hours on their latest Macross & Gundam games, you still somehow get all geared up for the next game and promise of even more awesome. How they do it, I'll never know.

Same here man, I would like to get it but purchasing one console just for one game No. I'm more into portables now a days.

I thought only the blue ray movies are region free but the games are region specific. Has anyone played "Japanese" games on an "American" PS3. Thanks.

All ps3 games are region free. I have the Asian version of a game and it runs fine. However, if you have a ps3 that can play ps2 games then the ps2 and ps1 games will still be region locked. Only the ps3 games themselves are region free.

If you are looking for a blu-ray player then getting a ps3 is a good purchase since you also get the gaming side of it and you get firmware updates which will allow you to always watch the latest movies but if you have no intentions of playing any games besides ACE then you will be better off saving your money. No single game is worth the cost of a console.
