    An exhilarating first-person mech shooter, it has its share of shortcomings, but in some respects leaves Core's also excellent title in the dust.

    GGB does not have much in the way of storyline -- a continuation of the previous Gungriffon games' post-apocalyptic military scenario -- or extras, but it doesn't need those things. It is extremely fast and fun and easy to play, and it is a solid title worthy of buying.

    The game is quick, the music is fast and there is enough strategy planning and intelligent AI to keep you on your toes. And hey, the machines look great!

    While battles are fast and furious they can get confusing and despite the presence of a compass there is no radar to show where the enemies are.

    At times the game is a confusing mix between the real and the surreal, but the saddest truth is that this unique experience is over much too soon.
  6. CNET Gamecenter

    Its intense gameplay, quality graphics, and tight control will appeal to anyone looking to get their action fix.

    A hugely underrated game. Only downside is the often poor English translation, but it's still understandable. Looking at modern games likeA hugely underrated game. Only downside is the often poor English translation, but it's still understandable. Looking at modern games like Titanfall and Hawken, it becomes clear how much of their lineage and inspiration they owe to this game, in the genre of FPS mech battles. It's aged far better than the game it was accused of ripping off, Armored Core. Definitely worth picking up, and if you can't find it, PCSX2 emulation works wonderfully.… Expand
