For those not in the know 'bout da moonspeak:
10 VS. 10 HIGH SPEED ROBOT TEAM BATTLE!

"Blast Runners" and stuff.
And it's supposedly developed by AM2.

Dudes... DUDES!
Am I, like, pumped to death or what?!

We will never play it, anyway.

Arcades are dead in the US, robot games don't sell in the US. Filthy Americans, keep it away from them.

In other words, don't ever expect to see this outside of Asia, so don't get excited.

Kogen · Post by **Kogen** » Sat Feb 14, 2009 9:47 pm

Yeah, it is only going to be available in Uzbekistan.

NOT LISTENING LALALAAAA

Fortunately enough, we can all look to it like yet another unfulfilled dream. Like a real life, true to God Oratorio Tangram tournament.
I just need gameplay vids to wank off to, that's all.

I'll be sure to let you losers know how it is.

They can allways change all the characters for "Transformers" to sell the game in America...

Kogen · Post by **Kogen** » Mon Feb 16, 2009 10:14 am

Because SEGA owns Transformers.

I suppose the robot designs could be better.

A game emphasizing teamwork coming out of Japan?

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

It's no Virtual On in terms of speed and sheer madness, but it's still awesome and sweet.

That's pretty much all the kids are playing these days. Monster Hunter is a goddamn phenomenon here.

Team-based gameplay seems to be all the rage these days, anyway. TF2, L4D, RE5, Resistance 2 has 8-player co-op...

I thought I read somewhere this was Sega's answer to that cockpit Gundam game? Here I was expecting it to be spherical but I guess they mean both have co-op aspects to them. Most of the mechs look a little to samey.

I'm not sure how many buttons there are or what all the stuff on the screen means, but it looks simplistic enough to be ported to PS3 and 360.

this game looks awesome and it's a original game? From Sega? That pretty much means there's like no chance this game will come out in the US. Weak.

Isuka · Post by **Isuka** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 1:27 pm

Here are some more screenies and stuff. http://game.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/20 ... segaam.htm
Looks like this was the only interesting thing SEGA had to show at this year's AOU, and it looks like it outclassed all of the other companies' offerings, too.

Yeah, the customization aspect seems to be absent due to it being an arcade game, and even then the mechanic design is nothing to write home about.
Controls indeed seem rather simplistic.

Watch a video of it. it gets considerably less awesome in motion.

All the yelling anime faces make it better, though!

I should had put that in all caps to better display my sarcasm. Oops.

I think we need to have a talk.

speaking of giant robots, virtual on is coming to xbla.

Which one? Operation Moongate, Oratorio Tangram, Force, or Marz?

This, of course, will determine my level of enthusiasm.

And yes, I know Force is unlikely.

Oratorio Tangram, Apparently it costs 1200 MS points though.

And here's a Kotaku link: http://kotaku.com/5159889/virtual-on-fo ... 360-its-on

Kogen · Post by **Kogen** » Wed Feb 25, 2009 12:24 pm

Since when is 1200 a bad price for a DC game? Same price as XBox titles.

That is not terrible at all, and I am now quite excited. Granted, it'd be better if I could somehow use the twin sticks, but alas, it is not to be.
