I've owned this game for nearly three years, and I can honestly say that it has never lost its value to me. There is just too much fun to be had in this. Whether you are trying to find alternate endings to stories or unlock all of the mobile suits, you'll be playing for a while.

The graphics of this game are high quality. Since battles occur in space, not so many resources have to be spent rendering the normal environments that most games take place in. This is given back to the gamer in the sense of finely detailed mobile suits and battleships.

Don't be fooled- it isn't just a pretty face. Gameplay can be very addictive. There is an abundant amount of single-player scenarios to take place in, with many famous mobile suit pilots to control. There is even a mode that allows the player to create his or her own pilot, and they are given a few missions to level up their abilities and skills. Save your pilots and put them in mobile suits to fight your buddies in multi-player battles.

After you finish a scenario, you might get lost in the media player, listening to the music or watching the cut scenes.

The only thing I could have wanted more from this game would have been bigger multiplayer battles. Three mobile suits seem to go by pretty quickly. But I really can't complain.

Gundam fans will lock themselves away for days with this game. If you ever Googled for cheap prices on heat hawks, this game is probably for you.

Do you remember the first Gundam game in PS2? It was called "Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey to Jaburo." After the events of the Federation taking out the Zeon from Jaburo, they take a trip to space to meet the 13th Autonomous Corps. That's where this game picks up.

You can play not only the stories from the original Mobile Suit Gundam, but later in the game, you can unlock the stories from the other series and play them. There are two extra Mobile Suits that are not from the series, which are the Wing Gundam Zero Custom and Tallgeese III, but they can only be played in versus mode.

The game is very nice and easy to understand, but so far the major flaw I found in this game is that all you can't land your mobile suit anywhere, and you have to be constantly flying in space (meaning no land battles, other than the level where you fight McQuve in Texas Colony). Overall it's still a very fun game.

best gundam game yet

OOOOOOOOhohoho! If you are reading this review that means you must be deciding whether or not to buy this game. I am going to tell you now that there is no better gundam game to date than this one. Two player could use some work, but one player I played for months! This game has I think 75 mobile suits. somewhere around there and you will become hooked. This is one of my favorite games.

I say this game is awsome expecaly all the diffent suits and armours you can use. But to win some are insane becase the mission(s) you have to win to get them it's hard enough to beat the mission let alone get an A or S rank. But im not leting that harm the games score. The back ground stories in ace pilot mode are well done but it is an annoying cowincadence that most of the Zion pilots got there star at the Battle of Loum. The gallery has all the mobile suits listed that you won, background music and all the cut scenes from the series used for the game. The hardest to get is a moble armour called the Big Zam which all you fans know from the Battle of Solomon. You have to beat White Base TV mode mission 3 and Shin Matsunagas ace pilot mission 2 and 3 and have an A rank on all those missions. To get TV Mode you have to have an A rank or higher on all White Base missions. I highly recomened this game for any 3rd person shoter fans even though it is an RPG and Fighting aspects are involved. The RPG aspect is primarly the abillity to creat your own character. The graphics ant as good as other games but the story (even thought it has a few blanks from the time on Earth) and the gameplay which realy matter. The only thing I found bad with the gameplay was 1on1 verses because your in space in a large area it is easy to lose each other in verses mode other then that i say the game is a perfect Gundam game.

I like this game.

This game is a continuence of journey to jaburo so you can expect something good from it. To tell the truth it's just a mix of all 3 games Fed VS zeon, Zeonic Front and Journey to Jaburo in terms of charactoristics like stratagy and graphics. Game play is great with several different stories and modes. Everything about this game is great but the on level inside the colony which kinda sucks.

This is a great game for gundam fans

This is a great game to put it simply, its a must have for a gundam fan. Once you get used to the controls its fun to play but its a little diffucult at times.The redone anime scenes are great. Its best to do everything at least once in this game, I say this because you will earn more things. This game isn't like federation vs. zeon you will not be doing all those fancy moves. But it has more mobile armors and this is all space and one level with some air combat in the texas colony.

Heres a tip for the battle of solomon in white base mode
you will be told to protect two salamis cruisers but instead of quickly destoying enemy mobile suits to protect them, let them be destroyed or help destroy them, doing this will make the mission longer allowing you to earn an S.

And i know this is a horrible review.

This Gundam game is the best. The new combat system and anime scenes from the series will really blow your mind. The best edition to the game is the many mobile suit to choose from. My favorite Gundam on this game is the RX-78GP03S. I recommend this game to people who loves Gundam and shooters. Buy this game now.

Most Accurate and Fun Gundam Game Yet

When I heard that Encounters in Space was supposed to play like Zone of the Enders, I was pretty stoked since ZOE was probably one of the best mecha games made for PS2, with the exception of RAD. But since I'm a Gundam fan, this grabbed my attention. Bandai has hit the nail on the head with this title. Fans of Gundam or mecha in particular will eat this up. First off is the animation for the series as shown in the game. The original Mobile Suit Gundam has been re-animated so it looks brand new and that just rocks. The sound effects and music is replicated to a tee. It is EXACTLY like the series, which isn't bad for us Gundamanics. The controls take a little getting used to, but they're not completely horrible. Graphics are good, but think a sharper, better looking Star Fox 64. The CG intro is great and is leagues better than that kiddie-pleaser SD Gundam currently on Toonami ( hopefully Zeta Gundam will be out soon and take SD Gundam off). The most impressive thing about this game is you can play as almost any of the Mobile Suits. Sadly, you can't play as most of the Gundams from Gundam Wing or G-Gundam. But they do have a good selection. Master Gundam,Burning(God)Gundam,Wing Gundam Zero Custom and TallGeese III. This is a game strictly for Gundam fans, but a darn good, if not, fun one.
