Over the years, From Software's Armored Core games have gathered a cult following. Loyal players snagged each new release and dove into mech customization, eager to take their creations into battle against a variety of opponents. The series was met with moderate success both in the US and overseas, but now Sega appears ready to give it an extra push. Armored Core 4 will arrive for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this March. It will bring destructive robot action for online and offline play, as well as a new approach that could draw in more mainstream gamers.
While the gaming future of Armored Core remains in limbo among vague hints and rumors, manufacturers continue to produce models of its mecha.
Fans of the Armored Core franchise have been waiting for a new game for over six years, but today a new model has been made available for pre-order.
I cant express how badly I want another Armored Core. DxM was a nice snack but I need the main course. Hope they try to have a release on PC as well.
Bit Cultures writes: "FromSoftware games are known for being extremely difficult. Games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne are punishing and made me want to hurl my controller against the wall more than once. So why bother playing them? Simply put, From Software games have the greatest bosses in any video game. Period. From their design, to their lore, to the degree of difficulty, no game does as good a job at creating such unique, terrifying, and eventually joyous experiences. It wasn’t easy to narrow down, but here are our Top 10 FromSoftware bosses."
Where the heck is Gehrman? That should be at least in top 3.
My top Five...
5- Artorias
4- Gywn
3- Ornestein and Smough
2- False King Allant
1- Gehrman
When the last boss transforms into another beast I was like are you kiddin me.
I assume you are talking about Ornestein and Smough, yeah. All hell breaks loose when that happens.
It was one of the best Boss fights in history. Dark Souls is a God damn Masterpiece.
1. Ornestein and Smough - King Vendrick, NO Giants Souls.
2. False King Allant
3. Artorias
4. Black Dragon Kalameet.
5. Manus
Yup and the last boss in Bloodborne was difficult for me too. Eventually beat him though
1. Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
2. Ornestein & Smough
3. Queen Qaalag
4. Gehrman
5. Gravelord Nito
I think you can almost randomly select your favorite bosses. Almost all of them are epic, along with the journey to get to them. Finally unlocking the shortcuts to them, or finding a nearby bonfire was almost as satisfying as beating them.
White Glint from AC:4nswer on hard difficulty. When i got S ranking on that i was so happy haha!
never played this series of games before, are they any good/fun? I hope the gameplay and story are equal to the customization options.
but with the faster gameplay and gfx it should be good.
is this game out in the usa ? theMart here is your proof especially for you: http://www.youtube.com/watc...
i hope you can now proof us that you owns a ps3.
this game looks poo.
give me mech warrior remake or phantom crash 2 any day...
actually... phantom crash 2 would rock monkey balls ...get on it microsoft but cut the fmv out this time its a game not a movie mofo.
custimization, AC is the best giant mech series out there. Sadly, the stories are always the same, controls are absolutely frustrating, multiplayers sucks, frequent slowdown in framerate, ... there's just a lot wrong. However, I'm a giant mech fan and I continuely buy the series just because I do have fun with it, but if you're not really into the genre, this game will only make you hate it. I'm hoping that AC4 really proves me wrong though. Please let this game be what every AC game should be, good.
