Armored Core: Project Phantasma

Armored Core: Project Phantasma (1997)

by FromSoftware, Agetec
Genres:Adventure, Shooter
Themes:Action
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:A Raven operating out of Isaac City receives an unusual request. Not only is the request both vague and cryptic, stating simply: "Infiltrate the underground urban complex, Amber Crown,", but it also bypasses normal channels of communication and is sent directly to the Raven in question, without anyone else seeing the message. No sender name or corporate affiliation is mentioned, but the monetary reward promised is massive. Because of the amount, the mission will obviously be intensely dangerous, but Ravens aren't the type to shy away from any challenge. With interest piqued, the Raven climbs into the AC and heads toward Amber Crown.Show more

This is the one I recommend playing gen 1 for the first time. I really enjoyed the condensed story and can easily knock it out in a few hours as it is not particular hard. Also, the main antagonist Stinger is actually the inspiration for the name of one of my ACs in 6!
My favorite moment of this game, is the arena mode. This is the first time it's been put in the series, and what I really loved about it, was how much fun it was. 50 opponents, and at the end of it a crazy good weapon. The main story doesn't have a lot of missions, but the main focus is the arena. Bringing over your armored core from the original game is a treat, and then adding new parts to it makes it even more fun. This is definitely one of my favorite series in the PS1 era. That in, buying a physical copy of this is insanely expensive. The current PS5 version Is unfortunately missing the functionality to carry over your AC from the original armored core game to this one (as of this typing). Which is a definite shame.
