Anubis Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 What in the bloody hell was that???!! Was that an actual game?????? WTF Quote
Graham Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 It's from a very old game for the original Playstation. IIRC, it was the first, or one of the first Gundam games for the Playstation. I think it came out sometime between 1995 to 1997. Terrible game IMO, with lousy controlls and poor gameplay, not to mention the stomach churning FMV with those terrible Gaijin 'D' grade actors Graham Quote
Angel's Fury Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Ditto!!! For a minute there, I thought that was kinda corny. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted December 19, 2003 Author Posted December 19, 2003 That game was commissioned by Bandai but developed by Presto Studios, the developer responsible for the Journeyman Project CD-ROM game. It was originally intended for its Pippin console but the development took forever, by the time it came out the Pippin was practically dead, so Bandai released it for the PlayStation in Japan instead (there were several Gundam games released on the PS1 prior to this steaming pile). A few years later, when Bandai America launched AnimeVillage to promote Gundam (this was before the Wing craze) on VHS, they gave away copies of this game on CD-ROM for Mac OS/Windows as a way to clear inventory - apparently the game didn't sell that many copies and was piling up in the warehouse.

areaseven Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Anime ja nai, indeed. You're gonna have to pay my psychiatrist this weekend, Jolly Rogers. Quote
Abombz!! Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 WTF? Whats the deal with the life action characters? What about game play movies? How did this game play? Quote
the white drew carey Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 I just love when they show the ?! right next to the Guntank. The Guntank is an incredibly stupid MS. Quote
areaseven Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 What about game play movies? How did this game play? What gameplay? The game doesn't let you move at all. You simply choose from the icons at the bottom of the screen. Selecting an icon will simply cut to the next scene. Example: At the beginning of the game, you run to the Gundam and board the cockpit. A Zaku is right in front of you, preparing to waste you with a machine gun. What do you do? Icons: Beam Saber, Vulcan Guns If you select Beam Saber, the Zaku will just blow you to bits. If you select Vulcan Guns, the Gundam will fire its Vulcans at the Zaku. Then, you walk out of the hangar and see another Zaku - this time, with a Heat Hawk. What do you do? Icons: Beam Saber, Vulcan Guns, Shield You get the idea. That's just what happens in the game. Quote
Lynx7725 Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Oooh. This little rustbucket of a game. You guys believe I actually bought the PC version of this game? It's a horrible horrible "game". The cutscenes are great though. No, I didn't play the entire game to see all the cutscenes. The programmers left them conveniently as MPEGs in a directory so I didn't even needed to run the software.

NoSuchFile Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 hahahahahahaha it's so Dum it's funny Quote
bsu legato Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Am I the only one who thought Char looked pretty cool...? j/k, of course! Please don't send me hatemail. Quote
Anubis Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 The feddie CF pilots were the best with their thumbs up and what not. Stupid. The whols thing looked like a poorly done cosplaying skit. Was that construction paper on Char's mask around his eyes? BTW, NoSuchFile, I love your new avatar. Quote
ogami Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 It is the worst game in Gundam game history... The FAT Char became the nightmare of any Gundam Fans Let's forget about it. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted December 22, 2003 Author Posted December 22, 2003 Was that construction paper on Char's mask around his eyes? Probably TP. Quote
yellowlightman Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 I remember a "demo" video I had of this game, used to watch it a fair amount because it had clisp from the original show... which was pretty cool since this was before Gundam was widely available and I had yet to find fansubs. I had the Journeyman game too, it was utter crap. Quote
robokochan Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 That was scary! There is no need for this kind of mental and visual torture And I thought the Fantastic Four Movie was bad....this takes the all time prize of being horrid Quote
