The engine just means how things are allocated to be processed in the system, IIRC. I'm pretty sure F355 Challenge uses he same engine that Shenmue does. Just like the Lithetech engine can be used for all kinds of diffrent games, not just FPS. Or I'm a complete moron. Either way works out.
I just got it today although I didn't have the time to try it out, also just me being in the mood for Gundam stuff I got Char's Counter attack, all I need now is the box Mobile Suit Gundam set...
Got some more playtime with it. I would say that it has TINY hints of Geomatrix but it's slower paced. It's more akin to Gundam Side Story if it had a 3rd person perspective. The campaign mode is great because you work your way up to better weapons and Gundam models like in side story, hell I was so happy to get a beam weapon in side story so this should kick ass.
The graphics are solid although a bit jaggy but the Gundam's are VERY niceley detailed and enviroments are well made, although it kind of sucks to have those boundary lines.
I also saw Char's Counter attack and man if that movie doesn't get you into a Gundam ass kicking moode I don't know what will, man what an epic conclusion to that part of the Gundam Saga, I like it even more than Gundam F-91! All I need is those 08th MS Team dvd's and I'm set.
Because it's the spiritual successor to Heavy Metal geomatrix that's why. And you fools need ot pick it up, 200 missions, plus Federation/Zeon forces fronts = instant purchase to me.
