The greatness of FFX's plot is a matter of opinion. But I won't say anything more about that. :P
(though I will note that one of the reasons that I don't have much time to play this game is due to the amount of time I spend playing FFXI) As Shin states, generic mecha would have worked just as well. But that's fine by me. I wasn't really expecting anything other than that. It was pretty well known beforehand that the setting was completely new. But I still would have liked something that felt a little more like a Gundam plot. Instead, we got something that's even more cliched than the plot of the Appleseed movie. You can argue over whether or not SEED was cliched. But at least those were GUNDAM cliches that were generally involved! (usually) So far the only possible Gundam cliche in this game is a guy in a mask (albeit one that covers little more than a pair of sunglasses) who might eventually pilot a red mobile suit (but isn't doing so yet) and might eventually turn out to be a bad guy (but looks like he's solidly in the good guy camp so far). His hair is light purple, though - not blonde. The mix and match feature with the mecha is fun, though. I'm hoping that I'm about to move into a part of the game that opens things up a little and provides more than just Zaku parts to work with. junior > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "ZY Ho" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [gundam] new gundam game out in US > Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2006 16:10:04 -0600 > > > I play the game for 4 hours last night. and I find myself liking it > more because the MS are from Gundam universe.
