Update: November 02, 2004 «©NCSX» Mankind's thirst for fuel is slaked in the year 2039 when the Shizuma Drive is developed. Special interests however want energy to be metered and a powerful underground organization named Big Fire works to foil all of the Shizuma Drives not under their control. To regain the promise of free energy, a young lad named Daisaku Kusama who controls Giant Robo rushes out to combat the greed and capitalistic inclinations of Big Fire. Take control of a monstrous robot who looks like an Egyptian god and grapple with fellow gargantuans on expansive fields of battle. The control of Giant Robo is through the use of a simulated remote controller (a wristwatch) for that Alchemical Drive and Tetsujin 28-go feeling. Players may enjoy a standard Battle Mode, a Versus Mode, and a Movie Mode where your best battles may be reviewed for posterity. The action moves at a measured pace which is fairly standard for this type of game as it conveys the feel of massive robots better. If they moved too briskly, they might give the impression of being constructed out of balsa wood rather than heavy metal. Standard attacks used by Giant Robo include powerful punches, missiles which fire from his shoulders, cannon fire which erupts from his wrists. During a battle, chunks may fall off of enemy bots which Daisaku may gather up. View the back cover. This document is ©NCSX 2004. All rights reserved.
