A Double Helix 3D Front Mission reboot, third-person mecha action. Deep customisation, stiff animation, weak story and disappointed core audience. Not the sequel longtime fans hoped for.
The Asian edition of Front Mission Evolved, Square Enix's attempt to recast the strategic Front Mission series as a third-person mecha action game. A poorly received reorientation of a hitherto tactical franchise, the title remains a curiosity for series fans mindful of this genre departure. Desirability rests on this status as a controversial action spin-off and on the relative scarcity of this Asian run.
