The original Front Mission first came out for the SNES in 1995, in Japan only. I don’t know why they didn’t translate it, giant robots fighting one another is universally awesome. Regardless, Front Mission DS has now been released in the U.S. and is a remake of the original. It’s basically your typical tactical roleplaying… Continue reading Front Mission (DS) Initial Impressions

Trama Center: New Blood Scalpel Gameplay
I seriously think I could be a doctor. It doesn’t seem that hard, some nurse telling me to cut this or that thing, suck out the blood, disable the control chip inside somebodies body, blah blah. Not that hard.
VC New Releases (A Day Late)
