"Having been a huge fan of the original turn-based isometric mech series Front Mission, my heart was absolutely crushed to hear Square Enix and Double Helix decided to smash the game into an awkwardly shaped Armored Core third-person shooter. Going with the disturbing trend of dumbing games down for the general population and stapling on a multiplayer portion to try to make some of the Call of Duty cash, this game feels like it was attempting to appeal to a larger audience by turning it into a run and gun shooter as opposed to a thinking man’s chess game."

Its sad that games like this exemplify JP devs inability to make games for HD consoles.
Many Western devs for that matter.
This game is a piece.
Wow, you must have been really bored to review this game S6.
Maybe nexttime the game had potentials.
5/10, eh? Oof.
