Damn, I read that as you could pilot Metal Gears in game.

On a side note, what a horrible release date they picked.

Rest in peace, Front Mission, it was fun while it lasted. I had every intention of purchasing you, but September 14? LOL, have fun with that..

September 14?? But that's when the 360 fanboys will go out and buy bajillion copies of Halo Reach and calling it the best game of the decade!! I predict Square Enix blaming Halo for bad sales!

Stickers.....that's it?
It's a mech game, Metal Gears are mechs, and all they did was put in stickers? Missed opportunity there.

"And you should put these flame decals on the ship to make it go faster!"
"Where did you get that idea?"
"I'm 12."

Or something like that. Couldn't resist a Futurama joke.

Those stickers are like rubbing it in your face how cool it would be if a Metal Gear made an ACTUAL cameo in the game but OOPS IT'S JUST A STICKER YOU LOSER.

Looks like Armored Core 3 gameplay but with more SPLOSIONS.

What sets this game apart from the 20 other mech games?

I've been waiting for a mech game where I can go pilot from the cockpit if I want to, or one that lets me smash through the sides of buildings, or implements a decent melee combat system.

Eh. I'll give it a pass for now and see what people have to say about it. No amount of MGS stickers will get me to D1B this game.

@ Skribble - It used to be a really good turn-based strategic RPG series with mechs...but now, nothing really seperates it from AC and whatever else.

So, their idea is that stickers will level the scales to their side against Halo Reach?



Does anyone know if S-E is secretly run by Sony? i mean this is beyond normal dumb and well into Sony dumb.

That's what I'm doing, too! I'll see you online since I imagine that there will only be the two of us have bought it.

I've got both games pre-ordered, but I didn't realize they were coming out on the same day until now. That is a curious decision.

I may at least rent this since I've been seriously hurting for mech action, and AC4 really disappointed me.

Same release date the same time as Halo Reach? No playable Metal Gears? Stickers that no one is going to see because everybody is to busy blowing up stuff?
Who the hell decided to release this game on September 14th and put worthless stickers in it!?

It's so weird that this is developed by a western studio (the Silent Hill: Homecoming crew).

... Kinda lame. Though the game looks pretty hardcore-bad-ass-awesome. Playable Metal Gears though, THAT would be awesome, and totally reasonable.

And guys, let the game release whenever it wants. If you think the umpteenth Halo game is more worth your money, get that and shut up. Not everyone gives a shit about Halo.

@ DustyBlue - Totally understandable if you don't give a shit about Halo, but I've got a couple problems with your argument. One, Reach will be the 5th Halo game released since the series debut 9 years ago...we're not really into umpteenth status yet. Two, you'd be a fool to question Halo's sales. People don't have infinite money nor infinite time, and considering both games are futuristic war games, I'd say this is a pretty moronic move on SE's part. It won't kill the game, of course, but it's definitely going to hurt far more than it will help.

I'm sick of remakes cashing in on what is popular (i.e. FPS's). Front Mission should stay strategic, same as UFO. They are just raping my childhood. Does Micheal Bay work for video game companies now?

Also I wish they wouldn't call them Wanzers. Sounds like a masturbation robot. Actually I would use that a lot more than playing this game.

Sweet! MGS stickers. I guess SE knows they're only going to sell copies on PS3 anyway lol ... I'd love a playable Rex/Ray or a huge cardboard box to hide my robot in, but whatever. I like the recent trend of shameless cross-promotion between games I enjoy.

What's wrong with the game looking like it's got Armored Core 3-style gameplay? For starters don't fix what isn't broke... and Armored Core 4 turned into an airborne booster-spam festival. Maybe it's just 'cause I'm Canadian that seeing things skating is like a secret code for awesome?

So it releases the same day as Halo: Reach. Given the amount of money I'm potentially dropping on that game, Front Mission will have to wait two weeks until my next paycheck. Are we all forgetting that games continue to sell copies beyond the launch date?

I'm getting it, but I'll be shitting out 600 something dollars for Reach, and it's not like Front Mission is going to be difficult to find two weeks after release date.

And yeah, where is my playable Rex? At least give me a Solid Snake skin for my pilot or something. Please?
