Quick Look: Infinite Space

First :)

I will not make a comment on being second.

I'm a little confused why the two people who dislike anime the most in the GB office would do a quick look of this game.

Infinite beards!

Ooooo. I've been interested in this since it was announced.

How much space?

No more DS RPG quicklooks please!

Space elevator. Enough said.

Oh god, space commies. That's the worst kind.

Yeah, I've heard this game is just unfairly difficult so don't feel too bad.

Bought this game day one. It's absolutely amazing. The story is genuinely interesting and the battle system really opens up with the inclusion of multiple ships in your fleet as well as stuff such as battleships, cruisers, carriers (and fighters) as well as destroyers. Some of the boss battles or scenario battles are challenging and require you to stay on your toes the whole time. 
 
I highly recommend this title.

Played a bit of this and enjoying it alot. Pretty robust ship customisation and the combat is simple to use but pretty tactical. And finding out theres also ground based combat makes this pretty appealing.

You pay a space gypsy to get you to a better place, and realize the truth.... So this is Mall Rats in space?

Boarding battles! So awesome!  This game is fun!
Also, I think the problem Jeff was having is that he didn't set the lady, Mia, to his command position, like assistant captain. In that position, she has high leadership, and that increases how fast the command gauge fills in battle. That would have made a huge difference. Also, the first boss has no attacks at super close range, and the second weapon he equipped hits at that range. Dodge up to him, and hit normal all day.

 Above the ship icon for each ship in your fleet are two bars(health/crew) and individual icons for your weapons.  If the weapon icons are red you are out of effective range, which can mean too close/too far. 

Your power bar was going up so slow because you did a multi-stage trip to get to the fight. If you don't go one planet per trip your crew doesn't get rest and your ships don't get repaired.  A fatigued crew makes for slower power bar increase.  Fatigue is the red gauge on the left when you're traveling.
 
Additionally, you have at least one extra crew member by that point of the game. Put that crew member in the right position and you'll get faster power bar generation.

I should get a DS....PSP is junk.

|_________________| This much. "

question to those that have played this game: how do i know when to dodge? i see the enemy gauge is red so i go to dodge then i just get hit with a normal for a crit. is there any way to definitely know they'll do a barrage before the "animation" starts? and the other way too, i always miss with the barrage so i just spam normal attacks. i'm only up to ch. 2 so i haven't really had a problem yet, but i i can only imagine later on.

cool lookin

" ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US "

God dam i have been looking forward to this game for awhile! Curse my DS for being all broke, and my wallet for being empty!

quicklooks getting funny as hell lately

man I've been trying to make character pages for this game and they aren't getting approved.  or not approved, for that matter.

THAT'S A FUCKLOAD OF SPACE!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!
OOH MY GOD!!
I think I'm gonna cry...

you can make conversations go by faster with the L and R buttons

There is some very good Russian translit there. I really want to play this but my ds is dead=(.

Was curious about how this played, seems pretty cool.

Spaaaaaaaaace

wow pleasantly surprised by this game.

Been waiting for this

What these bitches want from a zero G dog?

This game is extremely unfriendly with horrible horrible audio. I never heard such bad sound effects in a DS game before. At least the voice overs are good. If you manage to play long enough, once your able to get more ships and fill out your crew it starts to get better. I do enjoy this game at some level, but I think this is seriously over hyped by some game press people. Not the GB guys, others.

Huh, this looks really really cool. Now, with Pokemon, the upcoming Strange Journey and this, I'm going to have more RPG time wasters then I'll know what to do with.

awesome battle! 

Jeff pulls a Brad...
 
And I totally want this game!

You guys are so damn funny. 
 
"It's named after me so you know it means business!!" 
 
Anyway, great game.  Bought it yesterday.  I'm already hoping for a sequel.

More like Infinite shit.
 
Although when you guys do quick looks on shitty games, it does make it much more entertaining.
 
Speaking of shitty games, you guys should do a Final Fantasy 13 quick look.

This game looks really, really good for a DS title. Might have to dust my DS off.

Wow, I don't understand why they couldn't figure out this really simple game.
 
Just get as far as you can, and hit dodge asap.
 
You get to keep the dodge as long as you don't attack, so just let your action bar fill up allllll the way.  Then when you're super charged, rush in, get in as many attacks as you can, then back off and dodge again.  Simple.
