A great game of fairly limited appeal...

I am a full out Robotech fan. There was no denying that I would go out and buy this game when the chance came along. And I do not in the slightest regret it.

Robotech is formed around the beloved Veritech fighter, a transfroming fighter that serves on the ground, in the air and in the space above. And it isn't the easiest thing to fly. Controls will take some getting used to but within a week, you will be morphing so fast and flying so aggressivly, people watching will be afraid of you. Having played this on an X-Box and on a Gamecube, I was forced to admit that the Gamecube had a much better set up for its controller (yah us!). Graphics were not any different.

Gameplay itself is fun and exciting but with time it will become duller. There are two main weapons and the only thing that changes it the fighter's speed and manuverability. Missions are well planned and fun but you will get to the end fast if you try. The unlocking of things is also great fun but again, besides color schemes and a few different VTs, there's not much here. The ability to drive the Destroids in the game would have been nice...

In the end, Robotech is a must have for any fan of the series because it is the best and some might say only game that has accurately portrayed Veritechs. But the average gamer may soon find that they are bored and want their fifty dollars back.

Awesome

Anybody that is and was a rpbptech fan will absolutely love this game. However those who aren't familiar with the series, will also love it. It has great controls(gaurdian mode is a little slugish), gerat graphics, and a good storyline. The game also offers a good challenge once you get deeper into the 46!!! missions. Definitely buy this one

Rent it

this game is okay, the graphics is the cell shading crap but that makes sense in a game like this. cell-shading does not make sense in a zelda game (wind waker)............Rent it

im not 12

I haven't seen Robotech on TV, I don't own the videos, but I thought I would give the game a chance. The graphics seem to be off, but I can't quite put my finger on what exactly is off about them. The gameplay is monotous, and after a while, I really didn't even care if I completed the game or not. Control is not the best in the world as the layout changes from mode to mode to mode to mode, and you have to change from mode to mode to mode to mode. It just doesn't offer anything new, what is the same in this game is not done as well as in other games, and it seems like the Gamecube hardware was just not used as well as it could, or even should, have been.

Not much Cel-Shading

People said there would be cel-shading.What!?I don't see any except for the explosions and black out-line on buildings and stuff but not any fighters.For me,this game is extremely boring,espicially the two player mode.Except for a few space battles and big city battles.I can't believe I wasted so much money on this game without renting it.For now on I believe everyone should rent before they buy.I'm not any fan of the Robotech series so that is why I don't like this game alot.
Trust me,whoever says that this game is one of most exiting and best games they ever played,they are totally crazy or they never played a 3D action game before.

The game looks great...kinda cartoonish looking, but very sharp. The missile vollies are true to the show as with movement. However, before I bought the game I was under the assumption the music was straight from the show....NOT. It sounds like the music was rerecorded with syntesizers and extra
music added into the original peice....sounds like garbage.
Other than that....still a great game...some levels very, very hard. Great to play PvP as well.

I have this for the ps2

As Good As It Gets I Guess

Well the reviewers are right. This is probably the best it's gonna get for now, so if you like the series, definitely play this one. The missiles are fun and the jet mode is amazing but it all gets old fast. The missions get monotonous and, even though their are three modes which sounds like endless fun, that too gets old fast. To me and my opinion, more types of weapons and more styles of veritechs, not just paintjobs either whoop-te-do, would have made the game more interesting.
