Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey to Jaburo?
« on: July 30, 2001, 10:49:49 AM »
They gave a full review here! And also I have a couple of pictures of the game, I read the review...... I think I might like it.... but it looks like this game could get boring, fast.
Cool looking title screen. Look at the distruction your able to do.. awesome battle! Look at the other robot suits

What do you think of this game?

P.S. Sorry Troglodyte but I had to post my own thread!
.... take the skin and peel and back...

now doesn\'t it make you feel better?

Not a problem at all!  Thanks for the recognition!

I\'m all for this game.  I\'ve seen Gundam W and Gundam X and am in the process of getting my hands on two other "Seasonal-series."  I\'ve seen about 5 movie clips of this game.  Most of those pics come from the opening title sequence, and it looks so awesome!  When I was watching some of the clips I forgot I was watching a game and treated it like the show!  During the battle you "hear" the pilots thoughts of moral issues and such, just like in the show.

The only bad thing I\'ve heard about it is the control.  If you watch some in-game footage the player seems to have ahard time with the sword.

Also I think there may be a two player fight battle too.  But they sait it would have made a much better 4 player match than a two player match.

This comes to US shelves on Thursday, and I\'ll be there to pick one up.  It won\'t be one of the best games on the PS2, but for a Gundam fan it\'s a must buy!

Thanks for the pics!  They rock, but still lapse in comparason to the movie clips, to see that in action is truely amazing!

Oh!  And did I mention the sounds are exactly like the show?  Well I guess I have now!:laughing:

Can you tell I\'m excited?


UPDATE:  the screen shots are CG.  The in-game isn\'t great, but it ain\'t bad neither!  (I\'ll try to find some.)

No biggie! and I can tell your excited.... I\'m glad to hear someone out there likes this game as much as me! And are you sure those are CG cause I swear I read on gamespot that they were in-game. Ok this is my last post for the day... *starts to pack*

Those previous one\'s are CG.

Here are in-game shots:






Actually these are pretty bad captures.  It looks much better than this, but this should give you a better idea.

I was about to say that Troglodyte.  Those previous pics are from the opening CG movie.  I use part of it in a video project for a class.  

The controls do take some getting use to, but the game is playable.  My only problem (like with most of my other Gundam games) is the the game is in Japanese and I have to figure out what to do.  I think I may have some screen shots that I took for my site laying around somewhere.  I\'ll see if I can find them.
Like mech games?  From Armored Core to Frame Gride.  Gundam to Zero Divide.  Come to Mech Madness.

Well thankfully this will be in English.  I\'ve seen some clips of the same shot in Japanese and English, and it is ture, you have to know where to go, who to destroy, and sometimes certain areas prohib use of certain weapons!

I would love to see clips/pics of your project!

Sure.  No problem. :eyemouth:

I\'m uploading the movie now at this should be the url.  It\'s compressed with DIVX.  You will need those codec\'s to see the movie.

That movie ISN\'T all form the Gundam game.  It\'s from a whole lot of games.

ok Troglodyte I see what I was doing...... I was mixing two words... I thought real time and in-game was the same.... I read through the review a little to fast..... ah well......

BTW- What is Real Time? Cause that\'s what the game said it had.

                         ~~~~Post 600 baby! YEAH!~~~~

While you\'re making all your moves and setting up all your tactics, so are the bad guys!  In other words, you\'re not taking turns, and one minute-in-game is equivalent to one minute "real time."  So cutscenes (usually in CG) progress the game from one battle to the next.

Congrats on 600.

Found some interesting info:

Besides the Story m.ode, the game will also feature some additional m.odes of gameplay designed to add depth and variety. You will have the opportunity to unlock all the intermission sequences as well as secret cinema endings for both challenge and story m.odes. Yes, a Challenge m.ode will be available from the start, and from the looks of things, Journey to Jaburo may end up providing more hours of gameplay than Z.O.E.

Furthermore, there will be yet another m.ode available, but it will only be accessible after you have cleared the Story m.ode successfully. Tactics Battle m.ode will allow you to join up with either the Earth Federation or the Principality of Zeon, and the gameplay should prove to be very different from the typical format found in the Story m.ode. You will have access to any mech that was encountered during the Story m.ode, and each will have their own specific set of abilities and skills.


And some more pics:





I know not to expect a perfect specimen of graphics here, but even with that in mind I\'m still very excited about this game!
