True, or for old time sakes, I can always get FM 2 or was that, FM 1, from the PSN. Oh, and PSP T88V3 can finally use homebrew now-Seraph- said:Eh...Mytran Wars might be a decent substitute for the time being I'd say.cainx10a said:Where's Front Mission PSP Square Enix?
I say that Square should stay true to there roots, well I mean its all good and well diversifying but not to change completely.
I was so damn excited when I saw a new Front Mission in the headline....then I find out it's not a strategy, but a third-person shooter. That sucked...but it's doable. Then I read that Double Helix is making it. Now it's not even worth it.
What have heard about Wada that is so bad? I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just curious.Onmi said:
I've played two Front Mission games. One where you have to shoot every arm and leg of your enemies so you can get enough experience to stay alive, and one action game which was fun until you had to waltz around annoyingly labyrinthine installations.
The worst part was always the story though. The "Wars" are always decided by a fleetingly small group while everyone else are incompetent cowards. Also, there's always this incredibly overwrought "War is Hell"-crap going on with the protagonist constantly complaining and whining while gunning down heaps of enemies. I'm not against anti-war messages of course, but it has to be subtle to work. Front Mission is like watching Captain Planet.
Also, only the lives of important people matter. There's almost always a scene where the protagonist spares some enemy commander so he/she joins his side, but he has no problem with killing tons of no-names.

Oh I'm only kidding around. I like TBS, in different shapes and sizes (I gave King's Bounty an enthused review some months back). Don't take everything I say so straight-up seriously - usually when I "take cheap shots" it's more a joke on the kind of things "an average forum troll" would say than anything else. I thought that tone came through, but I guess my tongue wasn't far enough in cheek for you. Anyway, I'll lay off TBS. Just for you. Just for you.vivaldiscool said:
I guess since it's not numbered it's okay.
However,
That kind of thing is getting really annoying, and it's starting to pop up in pretty much every artical you post. It's not that it's actually that important, but I'm under the impression this is at least a semi professional online magazine. And taking cheap shots at every target you can this way seems befitting of an average forum troll. And It's not like the TBS community doesn't get enough flak as is.
