"If massive mechanical robots and fictional wars are your thing, then Namco Bandai and From Software have you covered with the latest entry into the Armored Core series. Armored Core V is no different to its predecessors, insomuch that it offers up war, mechas and combat in a tidy and well presented package. Having already released in Japan, we essentially got to have hands on time with the translated build of the game, and honestly we still had no idea what was going on."
John GodGames Emus has released some new videos, showing Haze, Afro Samurai, Armored Core V and Clash of the Titans running in 4K on the PC thanks to the Playstation 3 emulator, RPCS3.
Whatever happened to Afro Samurai 2? After they took it off the digital store I thought they’d come back with an improved product
The framerate and rending were more of the concern over resolution for me, and I can see they are making solid strides. Haze runs pretty well and doesn't seem to have many graphical or audio glitches (one cannot say the same for Ghost Recon lol). Given Sony hasn't provided any real backwards compatibility options, this is something I might consider. I still have my PS3 hooked up if I have a hankering for some last gen goodness, but I also wouldn't mind playing those games with either increased resolution or frame rate, whenever the emulator gets to that point :-)
Sometimes, regular old firepower just isn’t enough, and you have to dip into that high-powered futuristic technology to get the job done.
The Armored Core V server is going to be shut down later this month worldwide, From Software and Bandai Namco have recently announced.
Armored Core V looks awesome. Enough said.
Less than a fortnight to go.......I can already smell the energy from my MOONLIGHT blade.
