R.I.P. Front Mission

Front mission has gone to a better place...we hope.

"It might be a massive generalisation, but it's safe to say that while the Front Mission franchise is one that most gamers know of, it's also one that most have never touched. It's not surprising either, since, if we're excluding the most recent entry, Front Mission: Evolved, only three games from the franchise ever saw the light of day in North America and Europe only received one. Now, that might not seem too bad until you realise that Japan has had ten."

It's sad how far this series has fallen since it's beginnings due to how SE has handled it.

fozzness4805d ago

Such a shame.. another SE series killed by westernization.

mephman4805d ago

Us Europeans only ever got one game, but it was a great game. I still don't understand how Square Enix thought Front Mission: Evolved would be a success.

tweex4805d ago

I tend to agree. A great game that everyone has heard of, but few have played :(.

jc485734805d ago

front mission evolved is pretty cheesy to me. Wouldn't really hurt to port Front Mission 2 to the psp. I have FM5, but sometimes my ps2 is having trouble reading the disc due to the weak laser.

mephman4805d ago

Ahh, the dreaded DRE error. :(

I think Front Mission: Evolved is more than pretty cheesy, it's embarrassing.

lol no david hayter (Solid Snake) ? , riiiiiiitt

SPECTER5701d ago

LOL same thing I was thinking.

Homicide5701d ago

What other games has he worked on? He's overrated though. You can barely understand what he says.

Homicide5701d ago

I was really amazed with how good the voice overs were in Persona 3. I loved Akihiko's voice the most. Looks like many of the Persona 3 cast were mentioned there. Also the guy who did Tidus' voice is the same as Ratchet? Interesting.

daous5701d ago

No Quinton Flynn?

You know, the guy who voice-acted Raiden (MGS2 and MGS4), Axel (Kingdom Hearts 2), Henry (No More Heroes), Reno (FFVII: Advent Children and FFVII: Crisis Core), and Spider Man (Marvel: Ultimate Alliance). Of course, this excludes a few anime voice acting he's done :P

Oh man, talk about discrimination. If there is one voice in videogames that is recognize it is Keith David. Where the love, he should of definitly been on the list. Lets look at his credentials. Videogames: Halo 2 and 3 - Arbitor; Saint's Row 1 and 2 -Julius; Mass Effect - Capt Anderson; Fall Out - Decker; Planetscape: Torment - Vhailor ; Lord of Everquest - Lord Vekk; Transformers the game - Barricade. And he does cartoons also. The two main ones he is known for is Gargolyes- Goliath and Spawn - As Spawn. And if you did not know about Keith David and his voice work than you been living under a rock.

Paula Tiso over Keith David WTF

I love FM games.. FM3 was my favorite so far. Was hoping to see on on a nextgen console (preferably PS3) but this is good.

->spoiler Front Mission 3<-
Anyone else ever sad that you had to pick one person to save and could not save both in FM3 at the end?

bloodred_dragon5846d ago

Looks nice. I'll need to keep my eye on this...
