Front Mission series

Tweet

I'm a sucker for mecha, and when I saw the only NA release from the series--Front Mission 3--I just had to play it. It's a strategy RPG much like Final Fantasy Tactics (FM is by the same company, Squaresoft), but it also feels like Armored Core, particularly with the customizable parts and weapons (somewhat). The story is somewhat iffy with the political struggles and stuff, but it is played well. It's one of the games that I keep replaying every now and then. Recently Square Enix released FM4 and 5, but they were sort of disappointing compared to FM3, in terms of story and gameplay. FM3 is definitely one of the best games I've ever played in my life. I even bought the action figures. =/
