There is a lot of bad things being said about this game but it's better than that. Sure it isn't the best looking game and there are some weird things in the gameplay but the story and characters are good and the gameplay gets better the more you play it especially on New game plus runs.

The art work on the game was made by a famous art director which is what grabed my attention but after a couple hours of game play i was unhappy with the style of gameplay the game was going in some many directions that alot of the character functions are missing. Plot is interesting but the style of the game play really made it hard to enjoy anything

The game is a bit clunky but at its price drops under 30 bucks its worth picking up.
This is basically an action stealth game set in the FRONT MISSIONS universe. Most of the previous games have been Mech Sci fi based RPG or strategy games. Or mech action games.
This one tries something very different. If your a fan of the front mission setting. Pick this up. Its a flawed game but its not bad game its just sadly an average game and the post launch game balance patchs fixed a lot of the major issues.

It's really Front mission side story. If you liked the front mission series than this is a good game for you.

I was excited about this game because it looked like a Metal Gear game, but it is nothing like that. The controls are bad, the story is weak, the characters are shallow. The save points are too few and far between, and if you die you have to start all over. I played it for five hours and then traded it in. Overall bad game.

the gameplay for this is similar to that of MGS and Splinter Cell. however, its not as good. could be your cup of tea if it is the type of genre you are into. storyline is not indepth.

It's a little embarrassing, but yes; I bought this game just because Yoji Shinkawa did the character design. The game itself isn't BAD per se, but it's far from great. I don't recommend playing it on any difficulty that keeps you with it any longer than it takes you to experience the story.

Where do I start? I had high hopes for this. Seemed like Squeenix had the perfect opportunity to revive a mixture of Front Mission with MGS. However, this game was just a technical bug ridden mess.

BAD stealth game

This game has some of the WORST stealth gameplay I've ever experienced, and that's the majority of the game. The world and characters seem interesting but the stealth gameplay is atrocious. Enemy AI is inconsistent, sometimes they see you through objects, sometimes you can walk right next to them without being noticed. There are no stealth takedowns, you have to clumsily swing a melee weapon at them and combo them till they die. Game gives you lots of tools to aid in stealth that simply don't work.

This game got some lousy reviews for a reason, but if you take it for a flawed yet fun action game, you might make the best of it.

It's not a bad game, it just feels like a watered-down version of metal gear.
I say you wait a little while till it goes to about $20.

I love the character design and concept art for this game. I also like that it unabashedly shows its Metal Gear Solid influences. While I am enjoying the game overall, I have a hard time recommending it. It suffers from archaic and clunky PS2-era game design. I would recommend watching gameplay videos to determine if this is a game you will enjoy.

This game is set in the Front Mission universe, a strategy series we haven't seen in a long time. This game takes you into the human aspect of the series as it is not centered on the big robot suits. The gameplay can be slow, but it is fun and the graphics look good.
