«©NCSX» The arcade version of Mobile Suit Gundam: Senjou no Kizuna (Bonds of the Battlefield) is an immersive gaming experience where players enter a capsule called a P.O.D. (Panoramic Optical Display). Once seated inside the P.O.D., the senses are absolutely overwhelmed with bright lights and blaring sound. The game uses an overhead projector to beam a 180° panoramic image of the battlefield action onto the screen which is... overwhelming especially when your mech is in motion. Two control levers (sorta like twinsticks) are mounted on the front panel for movement and weaponry while two foot pedals may be thumped to ignite the Gundam's boosters. It's the closest thing to actually piloting a Gundam mech that we've seen thus far and the game reaches the PSP this week.
The portable conversion of Gundam: Senjou no Kizuna isn't as impressive as the arcade original but the missions are intact along with 8-player versus action where a 4-player team battles another 4-player team on action-packed theaters of conflict. Gamers can enjoy the Arcade Mode and Mission Mode (1-4 players). Upon starting a game, a metal gate open up to reveal the arena outside the bay (where the Gundam robots are stored) and your robot rockets into battle. The action runs fairly brisk but graphical quality has been sacrificed to maintain fast speeds. A replay function may be utilized which shows your greatest moments as well as botched operations.
Early reservations will include a bonus Gundam Strategy Guide that is being given away by Bandai in 50% ratio.
