MSG: Operation Troy Game
 

Does anyone know alot about this game? From what I heard it is suppose to be like a battlefield type of game, where you can fight in regular FPS mode as a solider, or get in different types of gundams or vehciles, and fight like that.

Yeah it was announced about 2 months after the 360 cameout. The news came out around the same time the PS3 gundam was announced. However the screenshots shown in your link show screen shots I havent seen before but other than that old news. Here is a link for more info on it if you are interested.

In a nutshell, yes. It's BF1942 with Gundams, just like how Battlefront is BF1942 with Wookies. ^_^;;; But kidding aside, at the moment it seems to be looking better than the PS3 Gundam: Crossfire game. But we'll have to wait and see.

and come on, who HASN'T hplayed a game of CS/BF1942 and wished they could get in a giant robot and just step on their opponents? ^_^;;;

It was pretty cool in the build I played at Anime Expo, but it still felt pretty clunky. Hopefully the controls will be smoothed out by the time it's released. Another thing, the graphics have substantially improved, which is beautiful.

There's something about firing a 180mm cannon at Zeon foot soldiers that made me happy. XD

- Gev, you're a man after my own heart. That would probably rank as number 2 things I would love to abuse in a console game (number 1 being abusing those Grunts from Halo---repeatedly). :heh:

Man I can't wait but to laugh at all those Xbox live names who named themselves after mainstream gundam characters save the UC (You killed xXKiraYamato42432Xx FTW while he was in his gundam with a bazooka)

If this game comes out in NA I'm getting an XBox 360.

This asks for a PC port soon >.> .

The game has a Q4 2006 release, for both Japan and NA;)

Nothing announced for Europe yet?

I concur. Of course it would have to compete with BF2142...

You know Europe never gets anything. XD

I disagree, the Japanese seem to stay away from PCs when it comes to gundam games. It'll probably just stick to the consoles. Though I would be happy if it came onto the PC platform but that seems unlikely.

Nope, sorry. Maybe they will annoucne a date come TGS

Unless something like Halo can kill their marketshare, then they'll bring the fight to the PC platform.

Which is quite odd, considering the fact that we're second only to the US when it comes to the gaming market. We also receive the honour of making sure that the console manufacturers don't lose too much on every sold console since they just switch the dollar sign for the Euro sign, even though the Euro is worth more.

It's a lot better now though, both Xbox and PS2 cost 40-50 percent more here when they were released than their respective prices were in the US.

Meh, this is no fun. Stupid Bandai...

Well if it wasn't for Europe's crazy taxes and whatnot, I'm pretty sure the cost of games would be more equivalent to US prices with conversion and all, so profit versus taxes paid is all relative. I've lived in Germany for 3 years and plan to move to the UK with my fiancee soon so I know things like games and hardware come at a premium versus when they're released in the states.

I still remember showing her the prices of the PS2 controller in the States in comparison to the UK and she totally flipped. XD

But yeah, tough luck for the EU atm. Just import really. That's all I did when I was in Germany.

Not to mention BF<whatever comes out between now and then> on consoles.

Now if they can figure out PC + User Mods/Maps = Several years of replay value...

Yes, hell they can even sponsor a AU mod which means SEED/Wing fans can have their fun while some of us stick to Vanilla gundam.

Sponsor? Your underestimating gamers. Unless you mean it(The mod) ending up as a standalone game for money like Day of Defeat or Counter-Strike, in which case it's another incentive for such a game. The Dev/Publisher gets money with little or no effort.
