Oh man. I can't believe these were sitting on my bookshelf for the longest time.
Has anyone ever played
Robot Alchemic Drive (R.A.D) for the PS2? This is one of the sleeper hits, let me tell you. R.A.D is a robot beat-'em-up game, but there's lots of story involved. Your character is given this huge organization and a giant robot to defeat enemies from outer space. The voice acting is
HORRIBLE and
HILARIOUS at once, but the gameplay totally makes up for it. It's like Big O/Evangelion.
Gameplay clips:
The Opening!"... That was my condo. Please don't worry about it."Some dude's doing commentary in this clip.Japanese clip of Lagiole's first battle.And another gem is
Tech Romancer for the Dreamcast. I had fond memories of this one. Before I gotten a Dreamcast, I would always head down to the arcade and played this like crazy. *A* This is also a mecha fighting game. All of the characters have different storylines and you can get a Good End or Bad End depending on how you play. Man, the spark here is the character designs and everything. Oh my god.
Gameplay clips:
Game opening AND anime opening. orz This had so much potential to air on TV.POLLIN'S STORYLINE. This was really epic. Pollin (magical girl from another dimension) falls in love with Junpei (the hot-blooded hero of the game) and girls from outer space come around to his house and we get HAREM MECHA BRAWLS OF THE AGES.
The final boss of the game. Goldibus. I hate you so much. He used to scare me too.
*A* JIN SAOTOME WAS IN THIS GAME *A* He is so awesome. He comes from Cyberbots, but you might recognize him from titles such as Marvel vs. Capcom.
Oh yeaaaah. I should play these now.
