Front Mission Evolved



Action games are pretty easy to come by for a gamer, because whenever you have a gaming system, you've got to have a game that delivers straight up action. Front Mission Evolved is an action game through and through, and certainly delivers the player with much to enjoy and participate in. Right from the start of this game, the action begins, and it's fun till the end. The easy control scheme is what makes the game so much fun. It is extremely easy to control your 'wanzer' (basically a walking battle tank) throughout the terrain because the control is very responsive. You can glide and even hover over everything whilst firing you weapon(s) and avoiding enemy attacks. The camera takes a simple role in this game--behind the players mech. This makes it easy to see not only yourself, but enemies around you. The locales are very varied, ranging from tropical to inside space stations. Not only do you get to pilot a giant robot, but there on missions where you as the main character must fight on foot. These missions offer variety to the game. However, piloting your 'wanzer' is the most fun, and gladly, most of the missions have you doing this. The story is well played out, and the voice acting and characters do a great job of telling it. The story really helps the single player game go smoothly.
I have few complaints about this title, except that the graphics for the character models, (the humans, not the tanks) looked much better. They aren't that bad, but the developers could have done much better with the models, especially since this is the PS3 where talking about. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a fast, fun, action-packed game with pretty scenery and great music, you cannot go wrong with Front Mission Evolved. It's one of the best of 2010.
