Damascus Gear Operation Osaka HD Edition
Simple but charming. The customization is decent, the overall mechanics are accesible, the soundtrack is catchy and I can’t stop myself from doing one more room even if that means finding a big-ass GEAR that ends killing me, lol.
I haven’t finished yet, and will update the review at that point, but for now it’s a 7/10: Not perfect but fun, and at the current value (with -25%) I believe it’s worth the price.

I’m not sure if I should be recommending this game or not…
For a cheap pick up its a lot of fun if you’re into japanese mech games and Diablo but the game has a big issue… you’re pushed through the game with a looming threat from loans you need to pay off and the threat is definitly real, and this adds some sort of rogue-esk elements where you inevitably fail and each time you fail the game resets, which it does several times after your 30 mission/day deadline is up because you just dont have the stats to win.

New Gundam Breaker
I own Gundam Breaker 3 on PS4. And this “New” version is without a doubt worst. But, on its own, it’s playable. I wasn’t sure about buying it first, so I decided to watch some streams before, and I liked what I saw.
Gundam Breaker is a series in which you create your own Gunpla, a model of a true machine. So, you don’t “really” play Gundam here, rather you play the role of a kid who uses a Gunpla to battle some other kids in a VR game. The parts you can use come in two sizes, 1/144 and 1/100. In GB3, the bigger parts had better stats, but here it seems there’s just a difference in size. You can paint your gunpla however you want, and it’s possible to create a true Frankenstein’s monster if that is your goal. Once your gunpla is finished, you can step into the arena and begin to fight.

Let me get this straight - the reason why i’m recommending this game, is because it hasn’t been abandoned, it is being updated, and it has gone a little better since it’s launch. If you are a Gundam fan, and Gunpla fan, there is something for you in this game, the freedom to build and customize is great (not as good as GB3, but that is a console exclusive), the quantity of MS you can get parts is great (250 since last update), a great selection, many custom parts to add to your build, though a bit limited on how many you can put on, graphics are really good, has original music from many series which you can select which ones you want to play during combat.

Assault Suit Leynos
I really like AS Leynos, but can’t help but feel a little underwhelmed with it - as an obsessive player of Gunhound, Valken and similar mech shooters I think I overhyped myself a bit. I looked forward to its western - and later PC release for months and even double-dipped and bought the PS4 version anyway. Overall it’s fine, maybe average sums up the game better.
General gameplay is good, and achieves some pretty solid highs at times but suffers from some slightly annoying decisions like pulling you out of the action constantly to introduce a miniboss, or literally moving you away from a defense objective to fight an enemy only to throw a mission failed screen in your face when the thing you were initially defending ends up being destroyed by the enemy.

Assault Suits Leynos is a remake of the 1990 Sega Genesis game “Target Earth” or “Assault Suits Leynos” in Japan. Almost 30 years later and partly produced by the original developer Assault Suits Leynos is back with a fresh take on the original game. Upon looking through a handful of Steam reviews I decided to write my own since a lot of the bad reviews for this game focused on the port being “trash” mostly due to problems stemming from controls when the game first launched.
The developer did eventually offer a fix and you basically have to set your control to xbox which will allow you to remap a controller. There currently still is not a method to remap controls for keyboard which is a nearly impossible sell for the large amount of PC players who consider the Keyboard and Mouse to be the ultimate controller. Not the most intuitive way to fix issues with controls. I was able to plug in a ps4 controller and use it without any issues. If you are a keyboard player I would tell you to use a program called JoytoKey to set the controls how you like them, but again this is not an intuitive fix either, and in the future I hope developers allow the freedom to remap controls. In 2019 not having remarkable controls is considered a solid deal breaker to many, myself included.

Quick:
3/5. Fans of the old Armored Core days may find themselves browsing Steam and stumbling across a promising looking mecha game named Project Nimbus: Complete Edition. This is how I discovered this title, and my initial expectation stuck with me throughout my entire experience with this game. My expectations were met, and in some ways exceeded. This game is pretty good. If you’re looking for a corny story, quick paced mecha shooting, dodging, and sword slashing… then you’re in the right place. However, if customization of your mecha is what you’re looking for, this is not the game for you. Overall I liked the game, and I recommend a play-through.

Super Mecha Champions
The Mecha BR game to play with your friends.
IMPORTANT
You will be matched against bots till you reach silver or above. The three bronze levels at the start are short but annoying.
I’ve been playing this game since about release for mobile (2019). Many things have changed for better and worse throughout the course of its lifespan. I personally don’t care for the account transfer of mobile to pc, so my review is not based on any decision Netease or the devs decided to take on previous PC accounts transfer or mobile to pc.

1st of all, The game is FAR from perfect, but it’s still one of the few games I play over more popular ones like Apex Legends or Warzone; though it’s probably mostly coz I’m a weeb.
What makes the game stand out are the mechs, each having unique designs and playing differently from each other.
No, you do not create your own mech; each mech is already designed, and has their own pilot, though you can choose any mech as any pilot and it won’t have any bonus outside of the pilot’s passive skills, which just so happen to fit their respective mech.

DAEMON X MACHINA
Armored Core Lite.
This is the closest thing to Armored Core on PC, honestly. It feels and plays like watered and dumbed down Armored Core 4. It lacks customization from AC, but gameplay loop as well as presentation (aka being hired by various Corporations that fighting each other) is very close. Story is absolute cringe and not worth discussing nor following. I can point out some pros and cons to break down the game
Pros:
-Closest thing to Armored Core on PC
-Plays and feels almost as AC4
-Had people who developed AC in dev team

I can highly recommend this game, it’s no armor core that’s for sure however the game does provided a lot of customization however most of it would be “locked” until you encounter that part for the mech or weapon type but overall the game is fun, story is excellent and characters are splendid I actually like about 3 or 4 that are my favorite that doesn’t the rest are bad it’s just my personal tastes really.

HARDCORE MECHA
I adore this game. I grew up playing Metal Warriors and Assault Suits Valken with my older brother, and have had a soft spot for the 2d mecha platformer genre ever since as a result. The asking price is reasonable for the single player content alone, in that it rivals Valken, Leynos, Gunhound etc, and may possibly be my favorite thus.
There are some hidden weapons blueprints in the levels, and sidequest type achievements to bring completionists back for a second playthrough. I was at first worried a bit by the lack of difficulty settings, but the game provides an adequate challenge and feeling of badassery on the first run worthy of its spiritual predecessors. You’ll be OP in the earlier stages of a second run by retaining your end game stats/equipment, but more significantly by having mastered the skills necessary to beat the game at all..

Time for a review after finishing the game! I do a Single and Multi Part. Not too long though. Oh and how it feels.
People who say it feels clunky and such. They just can’t handle high mobility games. Hardcore Mecha gives you a lot of movement options which can be used to dodge or go in close for melee attacks. It feels fluid to me and a great experience controlling the Thunderbolt S. The rest comes in the Multi part.
Single Mode:
The Story is the usual Mecha? Not really when thought about it. There is the usual Fight against the other Organization but you belong to a team of Mercenarys. Which already changes a lot. You only do your Mission and help others if you want to. Or want them Credits… The Bosses are great even if sometimes underwhemling… Like the Final Boss. Should have been way more space and fighting room. And kinda anti-climatic. But still fun to fight! Like against the Crimson Flame which is difficult for a first timer for sure. It’s Melee focus and speed. The rest of the Single mode, when Arcade and such is missing for now. Is still a great experience. I still didn’t find every blueprint either! Gotta get to that. Everthing else. Great. Enemies are never cheaply placed. Even if it feels like that at once. They are never.

Project MIKHAIL: A Muv-Luv War Story
At this point, this game needs A LOT of work in almost everything aside from the story and TSF (mecha) design.
-The controls on keyboard and mouse are substandard while playing on controller makes it just bearable.
-Combat mechanics needs a lot of work as actions tend to jam when you are inputting multiple buttons or even moving and shooting for that matter.
-Movement control is also inconsistent with input at times.
-Dual projectile weapon mode currently does not allow you to fire both weapons at once.

First time I saw any Muv-Luv related media was the anime Schwarzesmarken, and I didn’t learn of the name Muv-Luv until I watched Total Eclipse, both of them being spin-offs. They were all decent, but a friend of mine once gifted me the first Muv-Luv VN game, and since then I’ve been more hooked than ever.
I’ve been excited for Project MIKHAIL ever since it was announced, and despite some of the problems it has, which I will go into, I’m very happy that I bought this game, even in Early Access. Do note that so far I have only played with mouse and keyboard.

SD GUNDAM G GENERATION CROSS RAYS
This is a game whose enjoyment comes with several caveats: Do you like gundam (or other giant robot shows)? Do you enjoy oldschool turn based strategy? Can you overlook some rough bits of rough presentation for an otherwise pretty enough experience?
This is a very niche game for fans of the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise. I say that, but it’s geared more towards those who have watched the more modern shows (and shows that the west have more experience with). No Universal Century (barring one special machine); this focuses on Gundam’s Wing, SEED, 00, and Iron Blooded Orphans. Your enjoyment of this game is tired very closely to how much you enjoyed those series.

Super Deformed Gundam
SD Gundam G Generation is a series of strategy-RPG games that focus on the Gundam. Developed by TOM CREATE and Released by Bandai. It’s long time series since late 90s and still continue to this day. However SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays is special than other because it’s the first in this series that is officially localized outside of Japan and got released worldwide in major platform.
The game is actually very popular much like Super Robot Wars counterpart in Japan, as it’s only game that allow wide customization and ability to use many Gundam in the way beyond imagine. Countless of animations and copious eye candy fanservices, each mobile suit can have unique animations for themselves for each moveset, animation for dodging, animation for making entrance and exit and much more. The story that catches on the glimpse of beauty presented in the series are what make the them great despite the subjective Super Deformed fashion and somewhat straightforward gameplay.
