This is my introduction to the Armored Core franchise and Fromsoftware in-general. The joy of building and testing NEXTs to fighting other NEXTs is a thrilling experience of speed and hunk. Very anime as well

my first AC game that I found in a bargain bin along with a misplaced copy of Armored Core 5 in the box for For Answer. I was about 10 or 11 and while the game was at times frustrating for my child self I can't say I wasn't drawn to it. While it's sequel improved on it I think any progress into getting more Armored core on PC is a good thing

I only played this game recently, having to jailbreak my PS3 just to play it (buying a copy of the game is only possible through resellers for the cost of a modern AAA title). The game was really fun, the customisation is great, the story is a little lacklustre but still interesting, and the music is just divine. On its own, this game is still great, but it is almost perfect as a prologue to AC4A, the sequel that improves on this title in every way. Even so, having this game on pc would be fantastic.

Tekken 3
Tekken 3Tekken 3 maintains the same core fighting system and concept as its predecessors, but brings many improvements, such as significantly more detailed graphics and animations, fifteen new characters added to the game's roster, more modern music and faster and more fluid gameplay. Perhaps the most noticeable change from Tekken 2 fight system is movement reform - whereas the element of depth had been largely insignificant in previous Tekken games (aside from some characters having unique sidesteps and dodging maneuvers), Tekken 3 added emphasis on the third axis, allowing all characters to sidestep in or out of the background by lightly pressing the arcade stick (or tapping the controller button in the console version) towards the corresponding direction. Another big change in movement was that jumping was toned down, no longer allowing fighters to jump to extreme heights (as was present in previous games), but keeping leaps to reasonable, realistic heights. It made air combat more controllable, and put more use to sidestep dodges, as jumping no longer became a universal dodge move that was flying above all of the ground moves. Other than that, the improved engine allowed for quick recoveries from knock-downs, more escapes from tackles and stuns, better juggling (as many old moves had changed parameters, allowing them to connect in combo-situations, where they wouldn't connect in previous games) and extra newly created combo throws. Tekken 3 was the first Tekken to feature a beat 'em up minigame called "Tekken Force", which pitted the player in various stages against enemies in a side-scrolling fashion. If the player succeeds in beating the minigame four times, Dr. Bosconovitch would be a playable character (granted that you defeat him first). This was continued in Tekken 4 and succeeded by the Devil Within minigame in Tekken 5 - but Boskonovitch was dropped as a playable character after Tekken 3. There is also a minigame "Tekken Ball", similar to beach volleyball, where one has to hit the ball with a powerful attack to hurt the opponent or try to hit the ball in such a way that it hits the ground in the opponent's area, thus causing damage.
