If you (like this writer) aren't much of an Armored Core fanboy, after watching this launch trailer, you just might be grinding your teeth on metal sheets in anticipation for this game. Face it; Armored Core 4 (whether on the PS3 or 360) looks like no other mech-fighter game we've seen before. Stop comparing both versions. Just watch the trailer for the game that it is:



I'm actually quite sold in to those product blurbs flashing by in the trailer. Sort gets my gas pumping, if you get my drift. High-speed mechs, mid-air explosions, missile air streams... Sega sure got this game right. Both versions get released on March 23.

Buy: [Armored Core 4 (PS3)]
Buy: [Armored Core 4 (360)]

Couldn't be farther from the truth

The last bit couldn't be more wrong, for multiple reasons 1. FROM Software made the game, not SEGA 2. FROM did anything BUT get this game right. Go play the demo and you'll see what I'm talking about. Everything about it is just awful, the graphics are nothing to praise, the controls are HORRIBLE (good thing they can be customized, or a lot of people would be very angry), the levels are very simple and repetitive, and it really doesn't feel like you're piloting some incredibly powerful mech. I know this sounds kind of unfounded because it's based on the demo, but the problem is reviews of the full game mention the same things. So far nobody besides Eurogamer has given it above a 7/10, and EGM gave it less than a five for exactly the same problems I mentioned. I *may* rent it to see what the final product is like, but after the appalling demo I certainly will not buy it.

well

This is true. It IS developed by FROM SOFTWARE, just published by Sega. We'll see about the final product though.

whatever

This game looks SICK. You are a fool for challenging it. You must be speaking of the xbox 360 version... :)

I cried while watching this trailer. Tears of joy. This game is so awesome I want to rip my eyeballs out and eat them after having watched that. WHY ISN'T MARCH 23RD TOMORROW. 3 more days >__

It's Armored Core

What did you expect? Innovation? These are the same people who left the basic game mechanics unchanged since the firstl game for the PSOne. Speeding up the robots and making them look shiny isn't going to save this franchise. Hype might give it a leg to walk on. Save it though? I doubt it.

Yeah...

Same with Oblivion. I went to Blockbuster to rent either Armored Core 4 or Elder Scrolls thinking they might be released. I have seen places say for both on the 20 and on the 23. I noticed that they had the cases on display but they said they have not received them. I seen the look in their eyes for some reason or another they were being ass holes so I just went over to Target and purchased Elder Scrolls IV. It's a badass game indeed!
