What the press say about products in the Armored Core Series:
Edge – 80%: As the standard bearer for mech-building and fighting, Armored Core's depth is still profound... The greater emphasis on overheat and a new tuning system will be to the taste of some veterans and not others, but the beauty of the machines will please all.
(June 2004, p.110)
GamesTM: One of the finest mecha games ever made... The constant micro-management of your AC's mutually opposed abilities coupled with an increased efficiency at neutralising enemies is a cerebral, immersive and vibrantly unique gaming experience, which lifts the game above its past incarnations. (June 2004, p.116)
Development of Armored Core: Nexus:
Developed by FromSoftware and originally released in North America for the PlayStation® game console in October 1997 Armored Core quickly leapt to the forefront of the new generation of the Robot Action genre. It's critically acclaimed combat system and deep customisation combined to position Armored Core as a key contributor to the emergence of robot games into the mainstream. The series continued its prominence at the forefront of the genre with the July 2003 North American release of Silent Line: Armored Core for the PlayStation® 2; Armored Core remains the all-time best selling Robot game for the PlayStation® 2 platform. Armored Core: Nexus pushes the envelope of robotic gaming for the PlayStation® 2 system and propels the series even further into the mainstream.
