Mytran Wars' attractive package allows you to forgive these small flaws though. Enjoyable and certainly value for money with hours of gameplay it boasts a better plot than some recent console tactical games. Add in the interesting and highly replayable Skirmish mode and the opportunity to play against a human opponent and you really have the complete package.

Mytran Wars has good presentation, but the substance doesn't quite live up to it. While there's a good number of customization options to tinker with, there's a lack of unit variety, and the game's pace dragged, which made it difficult to sit through more than one or two battles at a time. Against other SRPG juggernauts on the PSP such as Jeanne d'Arc, Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions, and the first and second Disgaea games, this pales in comparison.
Digital Chumps: "Mytran Wars has a lot going for it. Whenever I have time, I like to read through the manual before playing a game, and in reading through the manual of Mytran Wars, I was impressed at how much the game has to offer. After creating my profile, I was all set to start on the very lengthy campaign (it's a good thirty-plus hours). First impressions were good; an opening cutscene was presented in a slick comic book style with cool characters and professional voiceovers. You can't judge a game by its cutscenes, no matter how bad or good, but it was encouraging."
