Robotech: Battlecry is an incredible addition to the series, with one plus: The Graphics will all be highl improved, and the manuvers and specs will be more. As well, the makers of the game have added a one-on-one Multiplayer mode. This mode allows you to go head-to-head against your friend, using any of the modes you'd like. There are different maps in the Multiplayer, and it seems only 2 people can play at the same time. You can get more maps by playing the story mode.

The story mode has a lot of missions, and many types of them. From search and rescue, to destroy all, and one-on-one with a leader of the enemy. You will battle on the ground, in the air, and in space. One lv. in space combat, you go against a whole fleet. Dog fights are going to be intence in this game, because of the power of the Game Cube processor. You can go incredibly fast, fire missles, and shoot missles down. In the Jet mode, you go the fastest and the most manuverable, firing good rockets and using the gun as well. In guardian is also manuverable, not as much as the Jet, and can also fire the same weapons as the jet. However, it's weapon's are weaker. The Battloid is made for close range combat, and can only fire a gun. However, pushing the secondary weapon buttun, it automatically shoots down all missles in it's firing range. It also has a sniper mode.

Over all, from what it looks like, the game will be fun, and will have great hrs of gameplay.

Ever wanted to pilot a veritech? Now's your chance...

Wow! This game really really surprised me. When first heard this game was coming out for the 3 systems, I was skeptical at first. First of all, all the robotech (i.e. macross in japan) games made by bandai or someone like that sucked. Second, it was coming out on 3 systems!!! What would be better? After playing the heck out of the PS2 version, I am happy to say that I am glad I pre-ordered the GCN version. The PS2 controller gets all jumbly and I end up doing moves I don't want to because I forget what button is which in the heat of the moment. When I think about it, the game is perfectly set for the GC. Anyways, I digress. Robotech: Battlecry is one of the most exciting games I've ever played. Not only does it make you relive some tense episodes of the TV show, the actual gameplay while playing makes you feel like you are in total control of the veritech, firing off dozens of missles at your disposal. Wow. I'll admit, besides the cool looking cel shaded mecha, the graphics are kinda lacking, but once you play the game, it becomes hard to tear the controller off.

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

this game kicks a*s

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.

this game looks tight!

At first this game may only appeal to those who have watched the revered Robotech anime series, but anyone in need of a solid action shooter should consider buying this game.

When first played, it is hard to get a hold of controls, and the tutorial mode doesn't quite provide enough training, but it all comes in do time. Being a game ported from the PS2 version, controls are expecting to be a bit faulty, but once you get used to them, there is little to complain about. As the game progresses so do your skills, and the more you play, the more intense the action becomes.

Overall the game is well done, but there are a few glitches here and there, such as your veritech dissapearing, or the whole game may freeze (very rarly though). It seems like the more i played the game that less glitches became apparant. The only other draw back is the lack of weapons, but it merely stays true to the anime series.

Keep in mind that the level become very challenging, but there is always a way around every situation, and everyone developed there own strategies to solve them which is a major appeal of the game.

If anime is your thing, this game is a must buy.

COOL...YEAH...

This is an awesome game. The one player capabilities are outstanding. I never saw an episode of robotech but I may start. The graphics are beautiful,2 player is loads of fun but it could have been better. And there are over 40 one player missions. The options and extras are neat also. And who could forget the variety. My only gripe is the difficulty, even in easy mode it's tough so don't be surprised if you end up cussing at your controller. I beat the game in 4 days. The ending was pretty empty, as if something else was gonna happen, I hope this only opens up the oppurtunity of a sequal. bottom line...GET THIS GAME!!!

Great game....lousy music

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.
