Gundam: Mobile Suit Gundam
built 660 days ago
Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam features a lot of mech. mobile suits, which fans can certainly look forward to. All of the suits have their own weapons, alternate weapons, and custom setup. All the mobile suits from the series are implemented in Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam, so fans can look forward to unlocking a lot of quality content. The game’s soundtrack was taken from the Zeta Gundam series and adds that little extra to the Gundam feel.

In the CC (Seireki) timeline, the name Gundam is given to the White Doll/Turn A mobile suit by Corin Nander. Corin Nander was an ace pilot who was placed under suspended animation as punishment and the color scheme of the Turn A mobile suit reminds him of the Gundam mobile suits from previous eras.

In May, 2004, Stone Bridge Press issued Yoshiyuki Tomino's Mobile Suit Gundam trilogy of novels in a new single-volume format. First published in English by Del Rey in 1990 (see below), and based on the legendary anime show of the same name, these long-out-of-print novels represent director Tomino's radically different interpretation of his own work. Over 480 pages, illustrated, with an introduction by U.S. Gundam expert Mark Simmons. Retails for $14.95.

The animation of Gundam the Ride used mostly computer graphics to create the large and engrossing space battles and mobile suits. However, all instances where a human character appears on screen while talking to the riders were created by hand-drawn cel animation, similar to the style current Gundam video games are done in. All of the character designs for Gundam the Ride were done by Mikimoto Haruhiko.

Gundam was notable in that it was vastly different from the "super robot" shows of the time. The typical formula for a "super robot" show involved a boy becoming the pilot or controller of a flashy, heroic-looking robot built by his father, and using it to fight off the legions of monstrous, bizarre enemies which would surface in each new episode. By contrast, Gundam presented a serious, dramatic view of war, and the machines ("mobile suits") in the show represented this view with a very militaristic, utilitarian look, with minimal gimmicks. It was this fresh perspective on the robot show genre which led to the "Real Robot" genre.

For US$ 60, you get hack-and-slash goodness packaged with countless of characters and mobile suits from various Gundam series. Doesn't sound like a bargain? More than 100,000 gamers grabbed a copy during the first day of release in Japan, which should mean more than hype can say.
