Reviewed on 2008-06-20 Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire This game is a big improvement over the last Gundam game, made for the PS2. The Mobile suits in the game are impressive.

Reviewed on 2008-06-09 Decent I am a Gundam fan, ive watched the shows and love the games, my favorite being federation vs. zeon. I would reccomend this game to mostly just a gundam fan because this particular title doesnt offer much to bring in someone to the band wagon. Overall the graphics are very nice, attention to detail is the best so far for the gundam series, however there is a framerate problem. At times it can seems like the framerate gets choppy, but it clears up really quickly. Gundam vs. Zeta had it even worse when it came to frame rate. As for replay value its definately there, i dont see why other gamer sites rated it so low, i actually enjoyed getting more pilots under my command, and buying more and more gundams to serve in my army. Great game.

Reviewed on 2007-12-30 it's worth the $15 this game's worth the money i spent on it.is it the best gundam game, no. but is it the worst, far from it. im a huge gundam fan, and idc wtf anybody says, this game is fun, and the graphics dont look like their for the ps1. it's a pretty good attempt at a gundam game for the ps3

Reviewed on 2007-12-28 Great game but feels unfinished I will preface this review with the caveat that I am a big Universal Century Gundam fan, which accounts for much of my enjoyment with this game. Graphically: As others have said, this is not the most spectacular looking PS3 game out there. The interactive environments help to make this feel less like a PS2 game but the overall appearance of the terrain is a little last generation. The mobile suit and mecha models are amazing though! The problem is, there is no model viewer, a standard in most Gundam games, so you can't take your time and really enjoy the various models. Gameplay: This game is ridiculously hard at points, if you are trying to do things carefully or use team tactics. You pretty much have to throw tactics to the wind and charge in madly, to hit objectives before you're MS is torn apart, ignoring the enemy Mobile suits that are murdering your wingman and shooting you full of holes. The more realistic speeds are hard to get used to since everything moves so fast these days, but I don't necessarily feel this was a bad thing to do. You certainly feel like you are moving about in something massive. I also liked the regional damage, where you can have arms, legs and head damaged or shot off. It's very satisfying to complete a mission when you are missing weapons, limbs and a head! The targeting system can get annoying though, especially since the enemy can target you long before you can target them. It's not perfect, but the controls are functional, and once you get used to the speed and tactics of the fighting, you can definitely finish a campaign on normal mode in a few nights. Music: Contrary to reviews I have seen elsewhere, I think the music is really outstanding in this game. It features full orchestra, and all new compositions (not just the classic Gundam music that gets recycled in every U.C. Gundam game.) It has a big, epic sound to it, and I enjoyed it so much I ordered the CD soundtrack from Japan. Customization: You can customize your mobile suits, which is a nice touch, especially when you change the various types (Desert, Heavy etc.) For Gundam fans it's a neat way to see the various pilot and variant paint schemes/designs. You can also get better pilots for your wingman, but here again they seem to have skimped and you only get names, without even a portrait to identify them. Unless you are a hardcore UC fan, you won't recognize a lot of these people so they won't have the significance that they should. Story: There isn't much of one at all. The missions are pretty generic (capture this base, now defend it, shoot down this transport, etc.), and contrary to the cover's claims, you don't have any effect on the overall war. The Feddies still win, no matter how well you do as Zeon, and all the major events play out just as they did in the series. I was also shocked that there was no high quality intro movie. There is even a little animation on you PS3 menu that plays a clip from a high quality rendered movie, but it's not on the game itself! Summery: It's a good game, but it feels like it was rushed in development. Parts of it, like the music, and mobile suit models are amazing, and other parts, like the terrain, co-pilots, and game play don't feel finished. Some of it (like cut scenes or more in-depth story) isn't there at all. It's still worth picking up if you love Gundam, and understand what you are getting, but it will no doubt disappoint most console players.

Reviewed on 2007-08-31 Great game for a launch tittle. Let me start by saying I'm a Gundam fan, but not a fanbay;I can't name every mobile suit or character name, heck until recently I thought the Gouf MS was pronounced "Goth", like in Gothic. On to the review. Graphics: 4.85/5 Sweet, but I've seen seen a little sicker graphics on my PC, albeit that my PC has almost all the latest hardware. Still, this is the best looking Gundam game to date. It's almost mind blowing. Game play: 4/5 It plays like a revamped version of MS Gundam: Federation V. Zeon. The controls are very good, but the R2 button for the sniper mode is very sensitive; if your finger even lightly brushes up against it you go into sniper mode, which is really annoying. There are two campaigns: Federation and Zeon. There are four levels of difficulty: Easy, normal, hard and very hard. Lots of mobile suits from the one year war, all of which are customizable. Pilots gain levels and become better over time. Difficulty: Varies Replay value: 4.50/5 It has two campaigns; each can take any where from 4 to 7 hours or up to complete. It has new-game+ type of feature that allows you to keep all your MS, Pilot levels, cash, and rank which all carry over to your next play through, but the difficulty level is automatically up-ed by one each time. Plus it takes multiple play throughs to get the best pilots and other sweet stuff like the MS suits that the enemy uses. Pros: Lots of Mobile Suits. Strategy and RPG elements. Two different campaigns. High replay value. Best graphics for a Gundam game to date. Cons: R2 button issues. Needs another difficulty mode to account for replays. No space missions. No character voices or anime pilot scenes like in previous Gundam games. Overall: A very good game for anyone whose into Gundam or giant robot type games.
