War. Hoo. What is it a-good for? Absolutely nothing ... except for more Gundam
PEACE DOESN'T SELL: Fans of the latest Gundam anime will have a chance to take control of their favorite war-hating warmonger later this year with the release of Kidousenshi Gundam 00: Gundam Meisters for the Playstation 2. How big a deal is this game? Big enough to get double exclamation points!! In the headline and subhed of Famitsu.com!! Cuz you can't type Japanese in all caps!! Why am I remembering Howard Dean all of a sudden!!??
Anywho, according to Famitsu, Mobile Suit Gundam 00: GM is a 3D action game that follows the first season of the hit anime. Take control of Stereotypical Gundam, Peeping Tom Gundam, Schizo Gundam and Fat Boy Slim Gundam while teaching the Earth's arms-racing fools a lesson. Besides featuring all the scenarios from the first season, the game will also feature plenty of original content to make fans squeal with joy. I don't know how much more of this excitement the fans can take, Gundammit! No price yet but the game is slated for an October release, just in time for the second season of the Gundam 00 anime.
All kidding aside, I actually quite enjoyed Gundam 00, and it's been a while since a Gundam series actually piqued my interest. Of course, that could all change depending on how this second season goes so I'm cautiously optimistic. In the meantime, one can only hope the game holds the same promise as the source material. Don't disappoint, Yukes!
