It's that time again. After only roughly 6 months, a new ps2 SRW game is almost upon us, featuring a ton of new guys, some series 1sts, and some old favorites, in what looks to be the last ps2 outing for the series (unless of course they have OG 3 planned for ps2 0_o)
1st pressing comes with a perfect file just like the 1st game (this is a dvd case sized mini artbook)

December 27th Bitches,
Let the froth begin.
-
Since there's an actual chance in hell that this will get localized for North America, I'm not importing.... yet.
-
I pre ordered the LE, i want the goddamn robot.
-
How many of these games have been released?
-
those games always look so awesome :(
-
How many of these games have been released?
Probably around a million.
I'm serious. :lol

Did you try the GBA ones? They are pretty solid.
Also, if you have a fat ps2 and a spare IDE hard drive, you too can experience the awesome via a series of extensive FAQs with one of those HD loader things. every srw game on ps2 works awesome on them.
-
Aside from the two GBA games, I've got Super Robot Wars Alpha 2 and Alpha 3 for the PS2, and Super Robot Wars GC for the Gamecube, they're all incredibly over the top awesome. I need to buy more SRW games.

If you have a psp, MX portable is pretty good, although its technically inferior, its the only portable srw that has battle voices :-D
The only real issue with the game is some loading, but its got a ton of options and toggles to customize it to your liking.
-
if this comes out stateside, its mine
-
There's a chance this may come to America? o_O
-
Even I'm interested in this and I might be the biggest anti-Japafag here. Giant robots, stats, strategy sound like a great combination of fun.

There's a chance the first SRW OG may come here on the PS2. Slight chance, but a chance.
-
I will be happy to answer questions to any 1st time importers who need help getting into the series, theres also a ton of FAQ's available. really you can play these without understanding a word of japanese. although learning kana helps (this will take about a week with practice)
SRW MX is a pretty easy one to get into, and its on psp. Difficulty is kind of a joke if you know what you are doing, but since psp is region free its a perfect starting point for many.
