Why Aren't There More Games Like This [Posted on 2004-11-03]
I'm about halfway through, meaning I've spent about 20 hrs so far, and I really must hand it to Square, this is a great game. The cinematic battles, the mech upgrades, and having money in the game, really make this challenging and fun. Any game that gives you the freedom to spend money and configure things is on the right track in my book.

My only criticism would be that they are trying to be an RPG. Oh, and this isn't an RPG in my book. They have some RPG trappings around, all around, in fact, all over the dang place. There's a lot of talking heads talknig, and sometimes that seems to eat up your time when really, all I want to do is check the shop for new upgrades and then get out to mech killing.

I with Agetec would make something like Armored Core Tactics or something. There should be more turn based combat games that aren't in a fantasy setting.

Not bad at all... [Posted on 2005-04-20]
Front mission three is a turned based battlefield rpg. the graphics are amazing considering there ps1 and the story is very deep with several twists and betrayals. The online section has some interesting qualities but I found the email system rather useless, if you read the text between battles anything you get off the "net" was just reapplying the same message. Though you can get a rather powerful wanzer late in the game through email and web addresses. I enjoyed this game, kinda a Xenogears meets Vandal hearts mix. I would highly reccomend this game to any rpg fan or those who are into giant missle firing robots. thanks.

A Game that keeps you busy... [Posted on 2006-10-03]
And I mean that in a GOOD way.

This game delivers all the action you could want, and gets you caught up in the drama of a continuous storyline to boot!
One of the best parts of this game is all the "secret things" that open up even more of the game (hint..get the STRATEGY GUIDE)!

There 2 distinct paths in the game, depending upon which road you choose. It's got a fantastic soundtrack to accompany the action, excellent "training levels", intriguing characters, and some cool mecha that beg to be taken out and "test-driven" through a neighborhood (near you)in Taipei...lol!
Heck, just shopping for parts and upgrades is fun all by itself!

As an old PSX game...this one is top shelf all the way!

Also..the action figures (if you can find them) are beautifully rendered and give you a feel for these machinations and the power they wield.
