Interact with Front Mission Evolved in this fancy trailer photo

Square Enix says that Front Mission Evolved, its action-oriented reimagining of the original turn-based strategy series, will give players a lot of customization options with which to outfit their big stompy "wanzer" mecha.

Unfortunately, some of you didn't believe it. How could real-time combat possibly offer the same spectrum of weapons and loadout choices?! Well, this fancy new "interactive trailer" is for you. Pick from a range of wanzers and setups, then see how they play out in different mission types and different tactics. It's like a lot of trailers in one embed!

Oh, and it's coming for the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on September 28th. You can preorder the game to get two exclusive new wanzer frames, the Calm and the Rexon. Which setups did you pick? I liked the zippy little one with a sniper rifle, but I also appreciated the one equipped with what looked like a big metal club, the better to club other robots to death with.

Still being made by Double Helix? Nobody short of Jebus himself can save this game.

The massive armoured core vibe to one side it looks nice and since the next armoured core and Mech Warrior game wont be out for some time I might be tempted by this

This is what game trailers should be like , I hope these types of traliers become a trend. I'm so tired of the half assed ones where you see one think you ought to get the game then when you play it you feel almost robbed.

Sadly, this game will bomb. I did enjoy Homecoming quite a bit, though.

Absolutely nothing about anything in that trailer stood out. I think this will flop something horrible
