Today instead of talking about my gunpla, I'll talk a bit about me and this new game released last month, Gundam Musou 3. (And a surprise Gunpla Rumour!!!) If you are not interested on a piece of my life story please jump to the middle of the post, that's where the game preview starts.
So I really would like to start this post, talking about me, because this blog for me, isn't just about gunpla, I want to make it become some kind of record of my thoughts and stuff...
Today since we are going to talk about a Gundam game, I think I could start by telling that gaming is a huge part of my life, I play videogames since I was little, played different types of games on lots of platforms. Like Xbox Consoles, Playstation Consoles, PC, Nintendo Consoles, Sega Consoles...so pretty much all big platforms that have huuuuuge and very good gaming franchises...
But now I only play on my PS3, that I have a couple years, and I played greats games on it like Assassin's Creed 2, Uncharted franchise and Little Big Planet, this where the ones that marked me the most... Recently I have been playing Call of Duty: Black Ops, I love shooters so Black Ops is really cool game (except some online issues...)and I love to play it with my friends at night, and sometimes we play till very late because we really like to play and we really have fun all together.
Gaming is not a drug, it's a hobby like Gunpla, and what makes me sad is when you see on the news that some mother let their children die starving, because of a stupid facebook game...
This is an EXTREME level of metal problems, so if anyone reads this, as a personal experience, I would like to tell that, gaming is great but you also have other important things to do, so try to separate stuff...I sometimes forget to do my homeworks and that annoys me...(NO I DID NOT LET ANY KID DIE xDD)(And I am not old enough to have kids, and I am single :DD)
So please try to play as a conscious person not a freak, psycho nerd farmville guy that forgets everything around him...
Now maybe the reason why 100% of you are here....GUNDAM MUSOU 3, I had a gaming blog, and there I posted reviews, previews, and news about gaming, I have some kind of easiness to talk about this subject...
So this game has only been released in Japan, for PS3 and Xbox 360, I really want to get it, though I expect to see a English version release maybe this year...
I remember to play the first Gundam Musou, and it was cool, though very limited, in some aspects, I liked the way how things worked, and this Gundam Musou 3 really breaks all the barriers...
This is one of the games that I would really advise a Gundam and Gunpla lover to buy, if you are not that type of person, please, don't buy it, because you will think that the game is worthless, a waste of money and it all will look the same to you...
For Gundam and Gunpla lovers, it is not a waste of money, why? Well because this game has tons of Mobile Suits and their respective Pilots isn't that great? You can play as Amuro and kick Char's Azz, or play as Kira Yamato to beam spam with his super awesome Strike Freedom and be involved in huge and epic fights...
This game is from a franchise called Dynasty of Warriors, though in most of this franchise games, you play as Japanese samurai's and all that stuff. In here happens +/- the same thing, though those samurai's are substituted by Gundams xD I can't describe how the gaming engine works though it's cool and you will sure love it! :D
One thing I like is that they are going to release a couple extra Gundams and Mobile Suits with their respective pilots, as DLC (DownLoadable Content). Which will cost a couple dollars / euros / "insert your country currency here :D" though I have seen DLC's much more expensive and are not that great...
I could talk, describe and spoil all the characters and pilots but I leave that to you :)
Now...the Gunpla rumour!! This is just a logical rumour and opinion that came from my head, and like...
In Gundam Musou 1, you had one of the bad guys, Musha Gundam 1, and so after the game, Bandai released a Master Grade Musha Gundam 1 plamo kit...
In Gundam Musou 2, you had as one of the bad guys, Musha Gundam MK. II, and so after the game, Bandai released a Master Grade Musha Gundam MK. II plamo kit...
In Gundam Musou 3, you have as one of the bad guys, no...not Musha Gundam 3...as I would expect...but instead...Knight Gundam!! Which is for me...an amazing Gundam, and if you want to see a gunpla modellers work, check this website, he has done a Knight Gundam, with parts from different Gundams like Strike Freedom.
I really love this Gundam, it's really awesome, and my opinion, is that Bandai will release a MG version of this Gundam, thumbs up? Personally I like knights, kings and all that stuff, since my country (Portugal) had a huge past, we where great explorers and we conquered a lot, we discovered Brazil, and we where the first ones to make the sea travel from Europe to India, by Vasco da Gama, between 1497 and 1499...
So since Bandai did the same to their Musha Gundams, both RX-78-1 and MK. II, I really think they are going to do the same to Knight Gundam...
Would you like to see a MG Knight Gundam? If so leave a commentary bellow ;)
See you all next time, and if the weather is "ok" this weekend, I'll do the review of the HG Exia and HG God Gundam ;)
If they do make this as an MG, I hope they used the OYW frame instead of the 2.0...
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I don't really know which one is better, because I don't have any of them.
ReplyDeleteThough it's design looks like it's going to have it's own innerframe not just a copy paste of other gundam's innerframe...well that's what I hope...
Because if they use a previous released gundam's innerframe, they have to build Knight, around that innerframe, and normally that brings problems with a couple parts or at least could...
If they build it's own innerframe, the Gundam, will have much more articulation, and won't suffer from problems that MK.II or OYW could have...
I think they used OYW inner for Musha 1, and after they released the 2.0 RX-78-2...so I don't think they'll use the OYW again, instead they would use the 2.0...
But this is just me...what do you think?
