How quickly we forget.  It\'s a PS2 game that\'s been out since launch!  It got a 8.4/10 at ps2.ign.com

How can anyone have a PS2 and never heard of GGB? I mean really... Evergrace is also on sale.

I saw that it was on-sale also and I was also wondering if it was worth it.  25 bucks why not

Sorry I don\'t have any input for ya though..

Geez, am I the only person here who bought this game? Well, to answer your question, if you really get into mech games you\'ll probably enjoy this one. The controls are fairly easy to pick up, the graphics are decent(though somewhat arcade style), and there\'s a lot going on in the sound department. I haven\'t gotten through the entire game yet(heck, I haven\'t finished half my games yet), but it\'s pretty cool so far. The only thing I find annoying is that some of the mission objectives can be pretty vague(I\'m stuck on the third or fourth mission because I can\'t figure out how to stop the enemy from taking the hill I\'m supposed to be protecting.) Other than that, and the curious omission of any multi-player options, this is a pretty rad game. Just don\'t expect anything near as deep as the Armored Core series(which is a good thing, imo.)For $25 I think you\'d be getting a pretty good deal.

Both GGB and Evergrace are worth $25.

Thanks for the rundown ratlad.  Do you only fight tanks and things, or do you fight other mechs too?

Along with all the tanks and helicopters there\'s plenty of mechs to fight as well. You even have to take out bunkers sometimes(which is where the zoom feature becomes very handy.)
