NCS Product Synopsis
Update: June 28, 2001
«©NCSX» Two nations with a heated past, pock-marked by war and strife, clash once again in the tale of Kikou Heiden. Ignited by the assassination of an Arusarian general, the Varim hordes begin their assault and renewed bid for conquest. As main hero Yamadera Kouichi, you're this game's Ray Amuro or Camille Vidan from Gundam fame. I.e, you wield mighty mech skills and the fate of the country rests on your shoulders. Similar to the afore-mentioned, archetypical Gundam characters, Yamadera carries a brooding and emotionally repressed character and presence. Apparently, all mech driving heroes list these qualities on their resumes. Heading off into war, communications banter flashes through mini windows on the lower-right portion of the screen to relay drama and story. Subtle voice acting emotes and works well to enhance the atmosphere and gravity of the game.
The gameplay feels right and responsive enough once you gain control of your Panzer Frame mech. An energy meter on the left side drains when you're jetting about and a life bar spans the top margin of the screen. Battles consists primarily of jump-jetting short distances to reach enemies in order to get your slash on. Descend near a foe and listen to the sweet clang of metal when your sword strikes it's armored bulk. A vulcan cannon spits out projectile fire to hit foes who might be doing the slash and dash tactic. Long range attacks also help when your jet fuel peters out and you don't have the time to wait for it to refill itself. Scenarios range from fighting whole squads of enemy mechs single-handedly or going on surgical strikes with targeted objectives.
