Killing 2000+ enemies a stage is common, easy, and also needed to meet a lot of the card challenges that the game offers as a way unlock more Gundams and pilots to use. Granted, this game does push the amount of enemies on screen to a level even diehard fans would think is ridiculous. The graphics in the game are surprisingly not that good compared to other Dynasty games. Combine arms so your shot gets a huge boost but the other slot is taken up by extra unneeded defence, or go with the melee and deal with the same consequence? The Gundams also have a limited number of times they can be upgraded, and limited number of stats that can be upgraded, making for some hard choices at times. This is part of the grind as the parts generally correspond with the Gundam you’re piloting and those the enemies are piloting, with no more than two or three parts for a single model at a time. Pilots have their own leveling system, not unlike any Dynasty game – whereas the individual Gundams can be upgraded with parts retrieved from completing missions and defeating enemy aces, aka story characters. Leveling in Gundam Reborn is handled in a very grindy way that will be the boon or bane for those looking to test the waters for the first time. Some of those challenges, like the time limit, also generate pressure for the player because if they are failed then the game is over and it all has to be done from scratch. One involves a time limit that crosses stages, while another requires beating missions to gather repair parts. Beat one and more are unlocked, each with increased difficulty, but what is more enticing is that each arc has a theme that makes them feel fresh and original. For example, one arc involves the Gundam Wing cast and thus none of them can be selected for use. In ultimate mode there are over 20 different original story arcs created for the game, allowing all characters unlocked to be used that are not designated as story characters for that particular arc. Without even watching a single episode you will come away with a good general knowledge of everything that happens in the canon. The stages are the key battles from the show but in-between the battles is an in-depth glossing of the story. Sorry Gundam Wing fans, no love this time from the developers.
DYNASTY WARRIORS GUNDAM 3 SOUNDTRACK SERIES
Official mode allows you to play through the key points of the original Mobile Suit Gundam series and Gundam Seed series, along with their respective sequels. TK decided to give the player the bare minimum of modes in Gundam Reborn for the PlayStation 3.
So when tasked to take on the Gundam universe and give it the same treatment is it a match made in heaven, or is it an unneeded milking of their proven formula? It makes perfect sense as it was originally based off a novel with over 500 characters. If there is one thing that Tecmo Koei has taught us with its Dynasty Warrior series is that it is not afraid to shove in more characters than humanly possible.
