Has anyone tried this one out yet? It seems they tried to remake the "tactical combat RPG" of the classic Front Mission to be more like an Armored Core action/shooter.
Supposedly it was released into the NA/EU markets recently by SE, but developed by California-based Double Helix (the group that back-in-the-day did Earthworm Jim, Wild 9, Silent Hill: Homecoming, and a bunch of recent/goofy movie license games.) I want to like it (enough to try it out) because I like both the Front Mission and Armored Core series but just from the looks of it, it reminds me too much of that NCSoft title Exteel, which was nice but the gameplay wasn't so deep. :/
