Wartech Senko No Ronde Description

Giant robot suits! Flying really fast! Firing big guns! Teenage girls! Huzzah! It's Wartech Senko no Ronde! Ubisoft has brought the classic Japanese arcade shoot 'em up to Europe so you can blow things up in giant robot style. Wartech Senko no Ronde blasts players into the far future where mankind has spread its wings and colonised the stars. Earth has become little more than a natural resource to be mined for all it's worth, and a violent war for world domination has broken out. Now the skies are dominated by Rounder Mech Suits duking it out for supremacy, and it's time for you to join the fray. There are eight playable suits, each with two distinct variations and an unlockable in-game B.O.S.S. Mode, making 24 different configurations to play with in total. Don't think that it all adds up to the same thing, though. With the various methods of attack available to you, the game requires you to deploy close, mid-range and long-distance attacks. Different characters and suits specialise in one or two of these, so you'll need to play to your strengths. It wouldn't be an Xbox 360 game without online play, of course, and Wartech Senko no Ronde is no exception. You'll be able to go up against the best Xbox Live has to offer to improve your ranking.

Reviewed by: Tethys	Date: 19/07/2007	Rating:
Wartech is a hybrid title involving mechs in a beat em up situation, the focus in this game is ranged combat mostly like a space shooter. At first this title appears simple but those looking for more can find a very complex game under the bonnet especially when playing online. The single player modes are short but sweet with a single mechs score attack lasting around 30 mins on an average difficulty. Story is unlocked as you play to an extras mode and won't make much sense while playing (especially with a less than average translation) Online is extremely fun and is the most rewarding part of the game (much like the arcade machines multiplayer) you will need to learn every mech and form strategy around it to survive. Those looking for a rich new experience should try this.
