Is this the game you’ve been talking about?
I own it, bought it months ago on some random sale but I have yet to start it. Is it actually that good?
Oh. I’m a complete Gundam virgin, I wouldn’t know lol.
Whats the new one called?
MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM EXTREME Vs. MAXIBOOST ON
But he might be playing the one you posted.

I’ll have to check out some gameplay. I could use a good arena fighter.
343 confirms halo online multiplayer will not require XBL (there’s actually a rumor that Xbox is making online multiplayer free for the Sex), local co-op will be split screen and that the game will be capable of 120fps

Well it isn’t really an Arena fighter. its a 2v2 game with a pretty cool point system. The way it works is that you can choose suits that range from 3k to 1.5k in point value.
After that each team gets a lifebar that’s worth 6k points. When you get blown up, the point value of your suit gets deducted from the team total and you respawn. A team wins when they reduce their opponent’s team points to 0.
The tricky part about this is that when you die, you respawn with life with a % of the team points left. Right now I’m playing with the friend that shilled the game to me. I’m playing God Gundam (Burning Gundam form G Gundam) that’s a 3k suit and he is playing a 2.5k suit. 3K suits have the most health in the game. So if I die first, 3k get subtracted from the team total, I can in with full health because 3k points are left in the team pool. But if my friend dies first and then I die, I’ll come in “overcosted” which means that my suit is worth more points than what’s left in the team total, so the suit comes in with less health.
That part matters a lot. We’ve won games just on the awareness that some dude is gonna come in gimped so you scout for the guy you just killed to bop him a second time. One of the games in wednesday I finished a suit off, helped a bit in the 2v1 situation before the spawn, and the guy spawned close to me with little health. Ended up dying like 5 seconds after he came in for the GGs
There’s also 185 suits. Game is full of stupid bullshit all over the place. There are suits that transform into airplanes and other stuff which makes them running away and zoning you out a pain in the ass; other ones give themselves some goofy armor and pfft. Others have assists too: one of their speical moves will summon a dude to help them out.
Game only has 3 buttons. Ranged (A), Melee (B), Boost ©. Ranged is some sort of projectile, Melee is usually a physical attack that has some sort of combo to it (there are also command normals and other stuff), and boost is for one of your dashes and for jumping.
Then you have specials with AB, AC and BC; there are also command specials so 2AB or 8AB could be an additional move. Specials are tied to cooldowns; same with rifle shots and other things. These are all different between robots so nobody really feels samey. God Gundam shoots short range beam that stuns people; other characters have rifles they can shoot from their A button and then dash cancel to keep shooting. God Gundam can either shoot a horse from his AB or do 8 or 2 AB to ride the horse to close the gap. Other characters are doing equally wacky stuff.
There are multiple versions of some robots, but they’ll play different. Kinda like going from Ryu to Sakura.
Game is pretty cray, the only problem is that you don’t really have a training mode. The way you set up “training mode” is by making a 1v1 local fight. You can set up infinite time and practice your movement and other things that way. Other than that though, pretty great.

Interesting. The roster sounds crazy. I know pretty much nothing about Gundam but the movement and mobility looks fun as hell.
Seems like I already missed out on the oppurtunity to try a demo, damn. I dunno if I can dump $60 on it but I really want to try it.
You said there’s local 1v1, is there online 1v1 as well?
Nah, its just 2v2 goodness all the time.
Apparently KizzieKay plays this and he is ridiculous at it.
That is not what I get out of the “free-to-play” statement.
What I get is that you don’t have to purchase Halo Infinite to play the online multiplayer portion. It will be a free download and get online with and then there will be a buncha stuff behind a paywall.
In the games showcase they had recently they already stated that Crossfire X multiplayer will be free but “requires Xbox Live” so I’m not sure exactly what that means too.
Perhaps one of the things they are going for with XSX is to have a bunch of F2P multiplayer games?
EDIT:
And based on the Halo Infinite gameplay we got, that game straight up “looks” like a F2P game.
Wut? Who’s in charge of this nickelodeon?!
I doubt M$ will offer live free when they have charged for it from the very start unless they’re going to offer you a downgraded version.
Movement is varied and requires a bit of execution. Not a lot but you gotta pay attention. Much of that is dependent on your boost bar, so one of the things you have to learn is managing it.

Battletoads looked cool 
I hope the paywall drops next-gen. Funny that MS would be the first
Xbox has game pass and Xcloud now. I imagine having to pay for three separate online services won’t get people on board. Something gonna give.

ah, it makes sense… they’ve successfully sold this gamepass shit to the entire fanbase. I am probably the 1 person that still doesn’t give a shit about the gamepass thing. I don’t like the idea of games being an extended rental, tied to a subscription. No one cares about actually owning a copy of a game anymore, and that’s something that truly irks the hell out of me. It’s disgusting.
I miss those days when the only required things you needed to play your games was the hardware itself, a tv or monitor of some sort and the fact that you have paid the damn electric bill on time. (*and with portable gaming, even that isn’t a requirement really. If the power goes out, my Switch and Vita are still there, and still ready to entertain me… even the battery charge isn’t much an issue since I happen to have the car charger for the Switch, actually.)
