    For fans of the series, I am sure this will be an enjoyable romp, going back to the universe and reliving some great memories of the past, but for new players I would recommend looking at one of the more modern masterpieces than picking this up.

    Let's be clear. Do not buy Zone of the Enders if you are thinking of playing Zone of the Enders. This is not what you are here for. 2nd RunnerLet's be clear. Do not buy Zone of the Enders if you are thinking of playing Zone of the Enders. This is not what you are here for. 2nd Runner however is essential classic gaming. It is the ONLY mech fighting game I have found that is worth it's salt. The action is smooth and grace full. The game allows you to feel empowered whilst fighting numbers of enemy mechs and makes you look good whilst doing it. The anime cutscenes are amongst the best in the business to date and the fusion of the Japanese Anime with a grace full yet frantic mech fighting game is perfect.

    Not many people will buy it... Not many people will know it even exists... but to play it is to be converted.

    I believe there is a new one in the pipeline... I hope so!    … Full Review »

    Zone of the Enders is one of the more 'stand out' titles released by Konami in the previous generation. For the first time, we couldZone of the Enders is one of the more 'stand out' titles released by Konami in the previous generation. For the first time, we could experience mech fighting similar to the ones in your favorite anime. Why a '6' then? Well, the bad news is that the first game aged horribly, with atrocious CGI animation and horrible voice acting. While the second game is still brilliant, it's just plain weird why Konami didn't simply 'reboot' the first ZOE in the first place. What's the point of having an incredible new intro when you are constantly reminded that this is a 'last gen' game. Kojima, can we finally have a next generation ZOE for a change?… Full Review »

    Oh bordel, quelle grosse bouse, ce truc ! mais rien d’étonnant en soi puisqu’il s’agit d’un étron démoulé par Kojima Déjections et édité parOh bordel, quelle grosse bouse, ce truc ! mais rien d’étonnant en soi puisqu’il s’agit d’un étron démoulé par Kojima Déjections et édité par Kon-ami (l’éditeur qui n’est pas ton ami et qu’on appelle con-ami en français). Cette con-pilation regroupe donc les deux daubes remastérisées en 2012 sur PS360, des daubes, rappelons-le, qui sévissaient à l’origine sur la plaie-stassion 2.

    On con-duit des robots géants qui castagnent d’autres robots pas gentils ; le maniement dans les 3 dimensions n’est pas maniable et pensé en dépit du bon sens : c’est confus et carrément épileptogène, car tout va très vite. C’est aussi (évidemment) très vite… répétitif et surtout, répétons-le, très con.

    Graphiquement très lisse évidemment, ça manque de personnalité mais surtout, ça se signale par son goût douteux, typique des ‘méchas’ japonais con-plètement débiles , en outre, la musique d’ascenseur et les effets sonores qui font pitié n’aident pas à s’immerger dans ce merdier de pseudo-jeu bien merdique ! bref, on l’aura compris, c’est de la merde !    … Full Review »
