    It's great, but it ends too soon and needs 2 player.

    I thought the game was great. All the gundam fans should be amused. I thought the game needed some more control though...that is my only complaint.

    Controls are sluggish, bosses near the end of the game (Levels 6 and 9) are murderously difficult, and the BGM interferes a lot with gameplay. Graphics are decent, though, and laws of physics are recognized (ie, leading one of the many Dopp fighters you'll face). Still, it was more than slightly disappointing.

    The game sucked very, short and not a lot to do with it, the zeonic front was a lot better.

    I enjoyed this game a little bit besides the sluggish controls and the alright graphics. rather then buying it borrow it from a friend it might even be somewhat enjoyable. I did like how real the moble suits looked to the show, but the gameplay made me re think myself I think its time for bandai to add a new feature...fighting in outer space.

    It's not a recommended purchase for those who aren't fans of the series (and "Gundam Wing" followers are advised to stay well away), but it was never intended to be anything else.

    The control can be a pain but the strength of the Gundam story is good enough to struggle through it.

    If, however, this is your first introduction to the Gundam series and a solid game is more your goal, you’ll find the gameplay frustrating and the average graphics and sound disappointing.
