Armored Core: For Answer Nabbed By Ubisoft, Ships This Fall

Gamecyte writes: "While most of Ubisoft's Q1 fiscal report will consist of the usual gigantic sales numbers (up 25.8% to 169 million Euro) and a smattering bold, forward-looking statements, there's also something for gamers to look forward to. On the last page of a press release, the international giant confirms that they will publish the formerly import-only mecha battler Armored Core: For Answer on PS3 and Xbox 360 this fall."

I hope they fixed the slowdowns and the awful controls from AC4. I wanted to buy it, but the demo killed it completely for me.

You can remap the entire controller to whatever you want, I don't see how you could have "bad" controls if you make them. Unless you mean something else.

Now Last Raven....those were......unique but you got used to them. Just be gratful that you can now use the left annologe stick for the camera instead of the shoulder buttons.

I am happy to hear that Ubisoft has taken control of publishing over Sega. Now maybe the PS3 copy of the game will recieve ALL the regulations ON TIME.

However, I doupt while localizing the PS3 version of the game they deliver trophies, since there were none for the Japanese PS3 version.
It'd be cool though.

"FromSoftware Announces Release Date for Armored Core's Massive 20th . . ."

Ooooo *clicks article*

". . . Anniversary Soundtrack"

It might show up differently on phones or whatever, but on my phone those last two words are cut out when seeing the article on the front page, and only show up when you click on it and see the full title, lol.

Games that looked good on paper

In all honesty, some games would be better off left on the whiteboard at the design meeting. Whether they're too ambitious, too expensive or simply too good to be true, gamers are frequently led to imagine great things only to have our expectations dashed when the game finally arrives. How could these games be so good on paper yet underwhelm so spectacularly?

its not even a bad game but thats what i thought automatically.

i think it was because of the e3 gaming media attention. i think those fckers gassed me up.

for those that didnt play farcry 2 its a good game I just dont think its worth $60 dollars unless youre committed to planned attacks that dont work most of the time. there is no multiplayer. well there is mutlitplayer but youre not gonna want to play it.

given enough time farcry 2 could be 1 of your favortie games. play with the settings on your tv and it can look really good.

PALGN: Armored Core: For Answer Review

PALGN writes: "Mech games have been around for years, though, for some reason, they don't always seem to make it to PAL territories. It's a bit odd really – giant robots shooting each other a lot seems like it would have universal appeal. Anyway, the Armored Core series has been around for over a decade now, with games appearing on the PlayStation, PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360, among others. The newest game to the series is the bizarrely titled For Answer, which builds on 2007's Armored Core 4. However, to be honest, not much as changed – if you liked the last game, then you're going to like this one. If you, for whatever reason, didn't like AC4, this isn't going to change your mind".
