Well, I liked it when they played the Cantina music from Star Wars.

Seeing Gundam SEED get that much prominence in the trailer is a hell of a bummer.

That said, Big Zam playable confirmed take my money. I wonder if that means other mobile armor type units like the GP-03 will also be actually playable as well.

These games always look kind of neat, but my friends who played them say they control bad even compared to main series Dynasty Warriors, so eh....

I hope God Gundam is in it, and it's still ridiculously overpowered.

I wish they would release the Gundam Vs games in English instead of these shitty Omega Force Dynasty Warriors clones.

Wait, really? Why did they play the Star Was song at the end? Is there really going to be a Star Wars mash up with Gundam? What the hell?

My love of Gundam has died down over the years but I did enjoy these games all the same. That said, well, I don't know if I can make it through another one. Why are they still showing mostly Gundam SEED stuff anyway? What about more from Unicorn or Double O? Weird man...just weird

@neozeon: Gundam SEED's suits comprise the majority of new playble suits, which is a little weird given how old SEED is at this point. Unicorn got 3 or 4 new suits and a lot of the new suits from other series are DLC. No new Double O (Unless you count one from the movie, and even then it's DLC), barely any new Universal Century stuff. My experience with SEED is mostly limited to the models, it sounds like it is not especially beloved?

(Gundam Crossbone being DLC is pretty disappointing too.)

That is what I was thinking. I mean, I liked SEED but that was, as you mentioned, some time ago. I thought that maybe it was a release issue since I don't remember anything besides Gundam SEED being shown very often here in the West. Then I saw Double O was airing here too so what the hell do I know?

As for how good Gundam SEED was I'll admit that there were some problems. Being realistic though, what it had against it has been going on in just about every Gundam series for years (Unwilling, anti-war protagonist with hidden skills? Yep. Main villains with shady ulterior motives? Of course. Dude wearing a fucking mask? Not doubt).

All that being said, I say you should check it out if you can. At this point it probably cost more for one model from the series that to buy both series (SEED and SEED Destiny) on DVD.

And DLC suits? Booooo, Boo I say!

@axel_ix: @neozeon:

It has been shown in HD form on the TV in Japan recently so that may have bumped it's popularity.

DO NOT touch Destiny..ever..ever ever ever ever ever ever. It took SRW to fix that pile of crap. Seed is fine if you ignore the jesusness of Kira, the reused action scenes, the bromance, the terrible...actually I can't think of anything good to say about either of them. Some of the models are cool but that's all the Astray stuff. Astray is awesome..I managed all of Seed without too much trouble but Destiny is a car crash beginning to end.

Looks like the wait continues for a good Gundam game.

In the West? Well Zeonic Front was awesome but that was a long time ago. In Japan? There's so many good/incredible gundam games it's a joke.

Extreme Vs Full Boost

PSP Universe Games

Gundam Senki 0081

SD Gundam Overworld

Super Robot Taisen...all of them

Geeze even the recent release on ps3 is okay.

I think Bandai Namco is just messing with us by release all of these in the US and not any of the great Gundam games that constantly come out in Japan. Gundam Extreme Vs is one of my favorite PS3 games and I had to import it after my friend just happened to see it on a Youtube video and tell me about it.

And this is coming from someone who actually likes Dynasty Warriors games.

Why is this not on PS4? :( Would be a day one purchase for me if it was and if they had the Japanese voice track back.
